Hillary I am thinking of putting in my 2 cents for what its worth

A couple of days ago there was a diary posted about making a two cent donation to the Clinton Campaign. This posting is a riff on that idea.

First let me say, I do have a dog in this fight although I can not vote, or donate monies because I am still officially an alien. However, I have promised my sweet Abbe that I will become an American citizen if Barack wins so that I can vote for him to be reelected.

Hillary Clinton has made a serious effort over the last couple of weeks, after channeling Sylvester Stallone's fictional boxer, she has attempted to turn her incompetence into evidence that she is the person best suited to be president. Like Rocky, she will stay in the race until the last goose is cooked and the fat ladies have packed up and left the building. She has morphed into the Rocky the Energizer bunny, who keeps going and punching and going and punching and going and punching and going and punching... ad infinitum. There might be an underlying/unspoken logic to this threat, if the super delegate refuse to anoint her she will start calling them at 3 in the morning and scream until they relent.

To ensure that she can get the batteries to keep going and punching and going and punching, Hillary needs a bunch of money, because her elite opponent has got all the money in the world and all she has is the hopes and aspirations of the millions of people who voted for her. Poor little Hillary has been forced, by the big bad Obama to take a stand but she can't afford to put food on her family let alone to buy the batteries that she needs to keep going and punching going and punching.

Unfortunately the media, which has always thrived on stories of little people thriving against enormous odds, in the fashion of the Walton's and Little House on the Prairie, has bought into Hillary's line and ask why it is with all his financial advantages can't beat her. They never seem to ask the more relevant question, which is "Hillary, why with your large network of friends coupled with years of experience working in campaigns, were you unable to build a better organization and fundraising machine." She is allowed to get away with turning this most fundamental flaw in her game plan into evidence that she is facing a sexist head wind which wants to force her back into the kitchen she keeps talking about and bake cookies for Barack.

Hillary is now shilling for money at every opportunity so she can continue fighting for us, because she like the Statue of Liberty embodies all of our hopes and aspirations . She has turned from simply being the energizer bunny/washed up boxer who keeps going and punching, to becoming the energizer bunny/washed up boxer/carnival barker/second hand car dealer who is going to sell us a pre-owned administration. In order for her to do so, she needs us all to reach out and touch her with our support, concern and cash. I say lets do it. We should decide on the appropriate time of day and flood her campaign with millions of contributions of two cents. This will do two things, first, it will cost her more money to process the contribution than the contribution provides to her campaign. Second, if enough of us do it at once it will crash her servers. Third, you will probably get a rejection notice from her campaign site that informs you the amount you have attempted to contribute is unacceptably small. These rejections could then get forwarded to mainstream media outlets, who may start asking the Clinton Campaign why she is turning away contributors.
