#1 Oh, she must be a total joy to be around right about now...

#2 They'll return it, only so it can be filtered back into the campaign by less traceable means.

#3 "simply didn't want to have to keep answering questions about a bundler whose background is now clearly in question,"

Note the total lack of concern about exactly where this money may have come from.

#4 You are right, Zenster. That quote really stands out.

The Clinton campaign has no shame whatsoever. They do not care who was ripped off by Hsu and they would gladly accept the dirty money even knowing it was obtained criminally if it would not cause them any political headaches.

While you are absolutely right, I find it even more telling that Hillary avoids any and all mention of concerns over how this money may well have come directly from communist China.

Once again America is treated to the vile spectacle of anti-republican elements engaging in the most flexible sort of ethics as they pursue their agenda. Dan Rather thought nothing of his attempts to throw a presidential election with obviously faked "evidence". It can only be far more dismaying that someone so close to the throne as Hillary does not seem at all concerned that her campaign may have received financing from America's declared enemy.

I cannot tell you how grim it is to watch both of America's political parties betray the electorate on such a regular basis. It is only the republicans' marginally more open recognition of Islam's threat that prevents them from tieing with the democrats for delivering us into the hands of our enemies.

#8 Likely they waited until they had $850K in replacement funds first.

#9 To those who complain about the extended election campaign season, note well it's better to have extra time to allow one's enemies opponents greater opportunity to show their true selves. And things like these have a tendency to repeat and compound over the long haul rather than be buried as a blip on the usual attention span.

#10 And I want a copy of each report.

Don't hold your breath, Dr. White.

#12 260 people just hit the lottery thanks to Norm and Hill. Now the big questions are who gets the money when the refunds are undeliverable and will the IRS treat this as income?

#13 Love the "Imelda Marcos" headline pun...

Don't laugh. Imelda's trial could have lasted for over 20 years. She asked the judge to 'walk a mile in her shoes'. [rimshot]

#14 Does anyone know what Sens. McCain or Feingold have to say about this? After all didn't they fix all this kind of thing?
