More Top Picks String Lights
An increasing number of people inside the Clinton camp are starting to revise the campaign’s stated position that EVERYTHING will be decided on Feb. 5.
Said a top Clinton donor: “A lot of people were focused on it being done by Feb. 5 — I don’t think it’s going to be done.” That opinion is increasingly being shared by campaign aides who are reportedly prepping for a post-Feb. 5 fundraising drive.
To that end: Over the next several weeks, the Clinton campaign will hold four big-money fundraisers in New York, Washington, northern California and the L.A. area to raise about $10 million for the big Feb. 5th push, according to sources with knowledge.
Several million in pledges were made at a Washington meeting hosted Friday by Bill Clinton that included about 60 high-profile “HillRaisers,” including Bernard Schwartz, Gerald Harrington, Robert Raymar, Robert Zimmerman, Hassan Nemazee and Jeffrey Thompson.
