Clinton Can’t Get to New York Fast Enough After New Sanders Win

"As the last ballots were cast in Wisconsin, Clinton was meeting with 60 donors at a campaign fundraiser in New York. Her campaign is hosting a news conference in the Bronx on Wednesday morning with Democratic borough officials and Latino leaders who support her."

It comes down to New York.

Can you imagine Senator Clinton getting the nomination and NOT winning her self-proclaimed home state?

A veritable tsunami of "Hate Bernie!" propaganda, all essentially posted by her well-known DU diehards, lol.

I did hear people say that she was taking $250,000 for speeches to Wall Street - fact
I did hear people ask what was in those speeches - fact
I did hear Hillary decide to keep them secret - fact
I did see the specific analysis of the oil and gas lobbyists that donated to her 2016 campaign:

Number of oil, gas and coal industry lobbyists that have made direct contributions to Hillary Clinton’s 2016 presidential campaign: 58

58 registered oil, coal and gas lobbyists have personally given $138,400 to the Clinton campaign.
Of those 58, 11 are bundlers.
11 lobbyists have bundled $1,327,210 in contributions to the Clinton campaign.
43 lobbyists have contributed the maximum allowed ($2,700).

This includes:

Lobbyists who have reported lobbying for the oil and gas industry – both in-house company lobbyists and hired lobbyists from “K-Street firms.”

This does not include:

Industry executives who are not registered as lobbyists.
Other employees of the oil and gas industry.
Board members.
Corporate PAC contributions.
Contributions by major investors.
Donations to Super PACS or non-profit groups.
Contributions made by trade associations to Super PACs.

As of March 21, Clinton has taken more from lobbyists in general than any other candidate besides Jeb Bush — a total of $919,477.

Total amount bundled from oil and gas lobbyists: $1,327,210

They will likely scream over the internet about "Fraud" (because when Sanders loses it MUST be fraud). And then complain its not fair Independent spoilers can't have a say.
