Honestly, when all else fails, let the dogs out....which apparently is the new Clinton campaign strategy.
When I read online this morning that 20 wealthy Democratic fundraisers threatened Speaker Nancy Pelosi with a implied threat of "no more dollars for Dems", I burst out laughing!
Not only is that very statement exactly what is wrong with politics per usual, Clinton's fingerprints are all over it.
That largess includes $554,000 to Clinton's campaigns and political action committee -- 10 times what they gave to Barack Obama -- and nearly $3 million to the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee, which helps Pelosi and other House members.
What could possibly be next? Holding a gun to our heads?
By the way, Pelosi pretty much told the "letter writers" to stick their money back in their wallets.
Three words of advice to Nancy:
Cut. Them. Loose.

Life is bigger
Its bigger than you
And you are not me
The lengths that I will go to
The distance in your eyes
Oh no Ive said too much
I set it up
Thats me in the corner
Thats me in the spotlight
Losing my religion
Trying to keep up with you
And I dont know if I can do it
Oh no Ive said too much
I havent said enough
I thought that I heard you laughing
I thought that I heard you sing
I think I thought I saw you try
Every whisper
Of every waking hour im
Choosing my confessions
Trying to keep an eye on you
Like a hurt lost and blinded fool
Oh no Ive said too much
I set it up
Consider this
The hint of the century
Consider this
The slip that brought me
To my knees failed
What if all these fantasies
Come flailing around
Now Ive said too much
I thought that I heard you laughing
I thought that I heard you sing
I think I thought I saw you try
But that was just a dream
That was just a dream
