In a sign of the escalating costs to be a candidate for President in this country, Hillary Clinton spent close to $24 Million in March. Even with that staggering number she still was outspent by the mercurial Barack Obama who spent $30 Million.
Hillary Clinton is allegedly $10 million in debt on top of the $11 million she has loaned herself. That comes out to her campaign being $21 Million in the hole. Considering her campaign is on life support at this point how can she justify to go on. If the costs keep coming at the same rate as in March she will be spending another $800,000 per day to keep the campaign going.
Considering the last primaries are on June 3, 2008, there are another 21 days which will cost Hillary about $16 million based on the $800,000 per day costs.
One of the reasons she keeps going is that maybe she wants Obama to pay off her campaign debts which as strange as it sounds is a common thing done in the name of party unity. Obama is a fund raising machine and could easily pay off the debt.
