Your readers should be aware that Sen Clinton is charging her campaign interest for the money she leant herself. This means at least part of the mopney donors are sending to HRC will go to the Sen herself as interest on the loan she paid herself.

Even Gov Romney did not charge his own campaign interest on any money he lent himself.

Additionally; donors who gave the max $4.6 to the campaign - will be entitled to $2.3 back should Sen Clinton not be the nominee ($2.3 for primary/$2.3 for general). As the Clinton campaign finished January in debt over $7million and has still not paid Sen Clinton back her $5 million --- a lot of the money people are donating now will not go to help the campaign -- but to bail them out of the very poor money management of the campaign.

Would be curious is this information was factually communicated to the new donors they are soliciting.
