As an ardent Hillary supporter, I was a bit worried when I heard about her money woes on Wednesday. But then, on Thursday, while waiting in line to board my flight at La Guardia Airport, I overheard a conversation between three airline employees, two of whom were women [for simplicity's sake, let's call them Jane and Jenny], the other, a man [let's call him Jack]. The conversation went something like this:
Jack to Jane [in a menacing tone]: I told you to do so and so...why haven't you done it yet?
Jenny: Jack, you can't talk to her like that.
Jack: I can talk to her any way I want to.
Jenny: No you can't. I'll stick Hillary on you.
Jack: Yeah, well good luck with that. Hillary has no more money.
Jenny: Not if I can help it. I'm gonna donate $10 when I get home tonight.
Jane: Yeah, me too.
The line then began to move. I smiled to myself and boarded the plane. Hillary will be fine. Sure enough, when I got home, and surveyed the headlines, I was greeted with the news that the campaign had raised over $6 million in 72 hours. I'm sure Jane and Jenny would be proud. They helped make it happen.
