If you’re a vendor providing services to the Clinton for President Campaign, you’d better get cash up front:
Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton’s presidential campaign is continuing to struggle to stay ahead of its bills, finishing March with just $9.3 million in the bank for the primary, coupled with $10.3 million in debt, according to a report filed last night with the Federal Election Commission.
(…)
Her list of outstanding debts reads like a road map of the nominating contest schedule: $45,908 to World Audio & Lights in San Antonio; $4,600 to Studimo Sound in Motion in Ironton, Ohio; $43,484 to Endeavor Audio and Lighting Services in Dickson City, Pennsylvania. Mrs. Clinton even had outstanding debt from Iowa, the first nominating contest of the season, including $16,260 to Garner Printing in Des Moines.
In other notable debts, since January, Mrs. Clinton has owed $240,000 to Catalist, a for-profit company created by Howard Ickes, who is one of Mrs. Clinton’s top advisers, that has sold its voter files to both Senator Barack Obama’s presidential campaign and Mrs. Clinton’s.
Many of these companies are, no doubt, small businesses to whom such a large outstanding receivable is pretty big deal.
I guess that shows how much Hillary cares for the little people.
