Hillary Clinton's former deputy finance director for New York State is promoting Reshma Saujani’s campaign against Representative Carolyn Maloney.

Annie Mullaly emailed friends this afternoon to say, “Reshma is a loyal, smart, dedicated activist. And she doesn't back down from a challenge which is why she's decided to enter this race.”

UPDATE: Add one more Clinton alum to the mix. Ben Yarrow, who did press and wrote speeches for Bill Clinton, is handling press for Soujani.

The email from Mullaly, which is below, was forwarded to me by a reader:

Subject: Fwd: I'm running.

Friends,

I'm very excited to announce that today my friend, Reshma Saujani, has officially launched an exploratory bid for Congress in New York's 14th District. Reshma is a loyal, smart, dedicated activist. And she doesn't back down from a challenge which is why she's decided to enter this race. The campaign will be difficult, but Reshma is committed to tackling the issues facing New York and the rest of the country.

Join me in supporting Reshma. There are three critical steps that I hope you will take today:

1) Sign up on www.reshma2010.com. Follow her on twitter, add her to your Facebook account. Stay connected for campaign updates!

2) Make a donation (no matter how large or small). Campaigns like this can't continue without financial support.

3) Spread the word to your family and friends. Join the campaign and help us make it grow.

Thank you for taking the time to learn more about Reshma. If you have questions, suggestions, or ideas for the campaign, please let me know!

Sincerely,

Annie

HILL-arious

This is too much. Obviously she's gotten a bunch of her hedge fund cronies to donate to her. She's the Hedge Fund candidate. She must be spinning to all her hedge fund friends that Carolyn is bad bad bad for their business. ANd you know what? Someone like Carolyn, who stands up for consumers, might actually be better for the REST of us than for Reshma and her hedge fund friends. Wait till she files. See how much of her money comes from "asset managers," "investment professionals" and "attorneys" who structure their slippery deals.
