The Contra Costa Times, a Bay Area newspaper, published an article this weekend about how Hillary is trying to find more money in California. Although she is trying to raise money for her campaign, she is no where to be found in California. Instead, Bill is in the state holding fundraisers on her behalf. One part of the article that I found particularly interesting was about the Hasan family opening their Saratoga home to Bill and as many as 100 friends in attempts to raise money for Hillary's campaign. This is the second time that the Hasan's have opened their home to Hillary in the past 8 months. Kamil Hasan is actually one of the states superdelegates, and Hillary is trying to solidify his loyalty to her. While Kamil has opened his home to Hillary twice in the campaign he has said that although he likes Hillary, he likes Obama too. In fact, he has yet to declare who he will vote for in the August Democratic convention, and has told the Clinton campaign that he will "absolutely consider" voting for her.
What I find so interesting is that we have a man who has opened his home to Hillary and has encouraged his friends and members of his community to give money to her campaign, yet he doesn't even know if he likes her more than he likes Obama. As the race pushes forward it is essential for Hillary to gain unconditional loyalty from her supporters because who knows how many are still undecided like Kamil.
