Need a hotel room in Denver?

TMZ.com reports that Sen. Hillary Clinton's campaign had booked hundreds of hotel rooms in August for the Democratic National Convention, but now that she's out of the race, there won't be much partying.

The report, called to our attention by Top of the Ticket , says the campaign has sent e-mails to politicos, charities and supporters trying to make sure the rooms don't end up adding to the $20 million-plus debt.

See the story in Top of the Ticket, the L.A. Times political blog.

UPDATE: Jin Chon at the Clinton campaign said the TMZ.com report is incorrect and they will be using their full block.

Scary to think how she would have run the country!


It makes good business sense to me.
