Clinton's money part IV
According to Time, we have some campaign supplied numbers.
So, Obama's in the low 30's, and Clinton is "close to" (below) $20 million.
(Why did Michael Duffy add that Clinton's number couldn't be "independently confirmed"? Is that caution, code or skepticism?)
The entire bottom half of Duffy's piece is about Clinton's debt.
Reading a number of these neutral campaign pieces, I've come to the conclusion that there must be alot more more rumors/gossip than we're getting about the Clinton campaign's finances.
Barack Obama raised more than $30 million in the month of March, a campaign official told TIME on Tuesday..... "The number starts with a three and we are still counting. It's in the 30s."....
As of Tuesday night, the Clinton campaign had not released its March totals. But one Clinton campaign adviser hinted that the New York senator's total for the month will come close to $20 million. That estimate could not be independently confirmed.

While the exact size of Clinton's debt has fluctuated, Democratic party officials say, hers' remains above the norm in size for a campaign at this stage of a race.....(at times has reached nearly $9 million).....
One Clinton adviser wondered whether that what he called the "massive debt" was beginning to hang over not simply the campaign but Clinton's political future. How, this adviser asked, can the campaign climb out of "the debt hole if we don't win this whole thing?"
