According to Kate Phillips at
The New York Times, Hillary Clinton loaned her campaign $5 million during the month of January. Since, as the article reports, Clinton has maxed out her primary donors (individuals can contribute up to $2300 per election-- and the primary is separate from the general), and may consider another loan to help with the February and March primaries. This tactic helped Senator Kerry to win the nomination in 2004.
