HILLARY'S VERY OWN '527'

A "527" is a group of individuals who are able to bypass campaign financing limits and contribute as much as they choose for a candidate.

A group of obviously wealthy politicos, calling themselves the American Leadership Project, has formed in order to raise money to air campaign ads for the Clinton campaign. The deal is that it is illegal for the Clinton campaign to directly influence these 527s, so as long as they act independently it is all fine and good.

But this story, when combined with the previous story of the multi-million dollar campaign funding deficit, it makes for an interesting picture of the financial well-being of the Clinton campaign.
