The Clinton advantage - all $11 million of it

For those of you supporting other candidates, you may want to consider donating to their campaign earlier rather than later. Seems Hillary Clinton has about an advantage over her opponents right out of the starting gate, to the tune of about $11 million. Most of it left over from her Senate campaign back in November.

According to the AP, Barack Obama only had about $500,000 in his account, while Chris Dodd, and Joe Biden had about $5m and $3m respectively.

The New York senator also has a separate political action committee, called HILLPAC, which was down to just $31,000 by the beginning of 2007.

Between Nov. 28 and Dec. 31, Friends of Hillary raised $220,763, and HILLPAC raised $132,805, aides said.

Clinton is not required to report her fundraising for her presidential account until March 31 because she established the exploratory committee after Jan. 1.
