I think it's indicative of how inefficiently and ineffectively they'll spend taxpayer money once in office. I said it about Jeb! during the primaries.

Even NBC, less than 24 hours after their silly CiC thing, had to admit Trump leads Cankles.

That is a fair point but it's no secret that Hillary is far and away spending more than Trump and not seeing much for that effort.

Clinton outspending Trump on ads, not showing return in polls | MSNBC

Does this mean money does not buy elections or does it just mean that Hillary is that poor of a candidate?

The money wasted on campaigning is a drop in the bucket if she gets elected.
The infrastructure bank she wants to set up and put her Wall St. friends in charge of will be the biggest money laundering transfer of wealth from tax payers to the bankers ever imagined.
We would be better off if we just paid the Clinton slush fund foundation 10% of all the taxes paid into the treasury.

Good point. Hillary has been personally bankrupt once and now she's throwing away loads of other people's money.
