Hillary Camp in the Red Last Month

Hillary Clinton’s campaign is in debt despite a massive influx of donations last month, according to FEC filings. She raised $35 million in February, spent $31 million and ended up with $33 million—but most of it is reserved for the general election and the rest is owed. However, $5 million of that debt is to herself and need not be repaid.

Meanwhile, Barack Obama drew in a record $55 million last month, spent $43 million, and ended up with $31.6 million in hand. If her self-debt is forgiven, Clinton has only about $3 million in pocket. The dollar divide could hurt her with the superdelegates, many of whom contend that the race remains close because of her fundraising power, TPM reports. (More Clinton 2008 stories.)
