If I got some mail from them - asking for a donation - I might be willing to send more to them than the DNC. At least they'd be pleading from a point of honesty.

So are my family and friends and most of the people who work at local supermarket.
I still have yet to meet an actual Hillary supporter.

just two and even they are surprised by the lack of support for her in their various other circles. And on the republican side 3 support Bernie and the rest support Jeb. And yet the media and the polls show Hillary and Trump are the front runners.

"We have a really good thing going here at the DNC. We wait for a candidate with actual integrity to come along, adopt all of their positions during the primary, and turn our backs on the constituency once elected because, well, we already cashed the checks."

Wonder if vendors learned their lessons from the 2008 campaign & demand payment in advance from the Clinton camp. I mean are there still suckers out there giving her an interest free four year loan of some $25 million?

More than four years after Hillary Clinton lost the Democratic nomination for president, Clinton’s 2008 presidential campaign is finally debt-free, new reports filed by the campaign show.

Clinton’s campaign committee paid off about $25 million in debt and now has a surplus of $204,832. The campaign retired its debt just as Clinton is preparing to step down from her job as secretary of state. Clinton supporters are pushing her to run for the presidency again in 2016.

One question, though: what does OPOL mean? I tried Googling it, and the most common result was that it stands for "One Parent, One Language". But I can't see how that's relevant in this context.

I find that Opol is a municipality in the Philippines, so maybe those dastardly MILFs are thinking about attacking it, but that meaning also doesn't seem relevant in this context.
