Madam Clinton's Campaign Pimping for Votes

Out of the NYT this evening:

Clinton Setting a $1 Million Goal for Donors

WASHINGTON, Feb. 1 — Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton is establishing record-setting goals for presidential campaign fund-raising, her advisers say, asking donors to raise at least $1 million for the honor of being in her top echelon of supporters.

That million-dollar benchmark is 10 times the amount that President Bush’s “Pioneers” were expected to raise in his 2000 race; at that time, the Pioneers’ $100,000 goal was considered sizable.

and Charles Schumer is on Charlie Rose's show, also pimping for her. It smells of corporate money, not the people's.
