Rand Knight's Fire Sale

(7/29/08) Hillary Clinton did it. So why not Rand Knight, who finished fourth in the Democratic Senate primary two weeks ago and $100,000 in debt. Like Clinton, he is selling off no-longer-needed campaign stuff. He’s also soliciting contributions.

Knight said he faces $20,000 in outstanding invoices plus $80,000 in debt that he borrowed and loaned to the campaign.

He’s offering to sell 33 nearly-new cell phones – 4 AT&T Wireless and 29 MetroPCS wireless. In addition, he wants to dispose of three portable air conditioners.

He made the offer in an e-mail yesterday in which he also said he will consider a bid for public office again if he can get rid of that debt.

The e-mail also encouraged his supporters to vote for Jim Martin, calling Martin “a true Democrat … (who) can beat Saxby Chambliss this fall.”

Clinton raised $42,000 in her fire sale, according to press reports.
