Senator’s Gone Wild: Presidential Campaign

Despite her high profile, and the deep pockets of major backers, Hillary Clinton barely out fundraised Barak Obama in the early part of the campaign. With a potentially larger pool of donors for Obama, Clinton is going to have to employ some more creative fundraising tactics if she wants to stay ahead of her closest rival:

  • Star in her own Girl’s Gone Wild video (although the cost for special effects might make it revenue neutral)
  • A “Baked” Sale, but instead of cookies and pies, sell drugs.
  • There’s always lottery tickets
  • Write another tell-all book about life with Bill, but this time, throw in some stuff about living at the Playboy Mansion and being captured by pirates.
  • Campaign in Canada to save on the exchange rate.
  • Try and get some of the Oscar money from Gore.
  • Win American Idol
