Clinton aims to raise $75M before 2008
NEW YORK - Democratic presidential candidate Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton has embarked on one of the more ambitious fundraising efforts, with a goal of raising $15 million by the end of March and amassing more than $75 million before 2008.
Clinton and members of her senior campaign team hosted a meeting of about 250 national fundraisers in Washington on Wednesday and most promised to raise at least $25,000 each for the New York senator’s White House run.
Senior members of Clinton’s campaign team, including campaign manager Patti Solis Doyle and pollster Mark Penn, sketched out campaign strategy and shared polling information with the group, while Clinton delivered the closing pitch for support.
