People need to ask Barack Obama this question: ‘Why can’t you close the deal?’ After all, Obama leads in the popular vote, he leads in the number of delegates, he’s got five times as much money as me, and he’s spending it like a drunken sailor on shore leave, but I’m going to win Pennsylvania … Read More »

Now that everyone knows Catholics will vote for me and not for Barack Obama, I’m ready to cash in a political chip or two. Pope Benedict XVI is visiting the U.S. and I want a ride in his Popemobile. In fact, I plan to change the presidential limo into a Hillarymobile once I’m elected President. … Read More »

I’m more than a little worried about the recent poll results. John McCain is surging ahead of me and Barack Obama. How could this happen? Bill says I peaked too early, probably sometime back in November or December. He says Barack has peaked, too, but McCain has not. Politics is full of ups and downs, … Read More »

Barack Obama and I have raised more campaign money than any presidential candidates in history. Out in Pennsylvania, Obama brought in over $350,000 in February, almost twice what I brought in, which was still far less than Rudy Giuliani brought in, and he’s out of the race entirely. Mark Penn was posting the numbers on … Read More »
