#1 She hasn't accepted PAC money because of deep personal priciples. And she you don't like those principles, she has others she can use.

#2 This was suppose to be a money making tour. I guess her paying audience became 'more selective'.

#3 Well, considering 99% of her current funding comes from PACs and Soros I don't think this will be much of a loss for her.

#4 But when she stops campaigning, does she get to keep the money in the PACs the way she gets to keep the money in her campaign fund? I suspect not.

#5 Another thought: as I recall, last time her campaign owed significant debts, and so the brand new Secretary of State had to do some serious fundraising to cover the shortfall. Given her demonstrated money management skills, what odds she will find herself in a similar situation this time?

#6 "But be clear ‐ if we have any shot in real campaign finance reform, we need to get her elected."

Huh? From the woman who approved putting 20% of our Uranium production under the control of the Russians in exchange for a pittance of a donation to her foundation?

#7 She's so hip, she can say osteonecrosis in three slurs or less.
