Oh-- and the relative sources of HRC's and Bernie's funding, also the rate at which HRC is burning through her funding, was discussed at length in our local newspaper this morning. It was a McClatchy wire service story.
I saw a discussion about campaign finance several days ago. (Was it on HuffPost?) This included a mention that Bernie had gotten the overwhelming majority of his funds from small donors while Hillary has gotten only 17% from that source. While Hillary is spending quite a bit of money for this early in the campaign, I believe she is still bringing in more than she is spending. No present concern about running out of money.
And the point was made that, while both Hillary and Bernie are bringing in far more money than any individual Republican candidate, the bloated Republican field as a whole has collected more than the Democratic total.
I (hope to) see Dean People!

I didn't see the Democratic debate, but this SNL skit IS cute, and Bernie is a good sport (as indeed he ought to be):

Hmmmm……I will have to see if HRC had a public reaction to the SNL skit…
Well, she participated in one, as a bartender--not bad.
