The Hillary Clinton campaign is kicking off in Kentucky next week. Bill Clinton will be holding a rally at the Morehead Conference Center on Tuesday, March 25 at 5pm. It will be his last stop on a three-city tour. Hillary is slated to come into the state later.
That's fact.
The rumor is that it's going to take a $100 dollar contribution to either get into the rally or get within shouting distance of the former president.
I don't particularly mind and I rather welcome the opportunity to nudge my Hillary contributions ahead of my Obama contributions.
But I'm a university professor rather than a student, a convenience store worker, or a retail associate. So, making that kind of contribution is not going to be the burden for me that it is to many others.
The other significance of the Bill Clinton events is that they are a strong sign that the Hillary campaign plans on carrying on until the convention.
Liberal bloggers like Josh Marshall and Matthew Yglesias have been arguing that Hillary should pull out.
But I'd be surprised if she did. There's a lot of ways to win and Hillary wouldn't be a top flite politician if she didn't play the game through to the very end.

How noble of you to be so concerned for the plight of the lowly student, convenience store clerk, and retail associate. Perhaps you could raise money for their contributions so they can attend?
Yeah, put your money where your mouth is, Caric.
I just got off the phone with J. Lemaster who was the Democratic Party leader in Rowan County and she informed me that the event is a rally, it is free and open to the public. The doors open at 3, it is standing room only and due to security and time constraints he will be leaving immediately after he speaks.
I bet we won't have to sign a loyalty contract in order to get in.
Oh, Cleo, you continue will your inane drivel. How predictable
