You don’t know why Obama feels the need to help Hillary retire her debt???
Because he needs her supporters.
He doesn’t help her out, he doesn’t get her full out approval. If he sells her out this one last time, she is done with him.
Obama knows he was anointed and appointed by the DNC and that it will not make a difference once it comes to the real election. He NEEDS every Hillary supporter he can get. He is not a shoe in by any stretch of the imagination.
Obama may twist and turn it anyway he wants but bottom line, he needs Hillary and her supporters to have a chance in November.
I was sorry to see Hillary’s latest email to her financial supporters.
Sorry Hillary but I could never vote for Obama or send you more money if there is any chance that it will help Obama.
If you still need help after the election, when Obama is out of the picture, then I will help retire your debt. Until then, it was nice but this is one place I cannot follow you.
I’ve never seen a worse candidate for President than Obama. Why he is choosing to be vetted in a campaign for the highest position in the nation is unclear to me, but it just makes him more suspect.
Obama wants to be president so we should just give it to him? How about earning it first. Put in a few years that really show what you believe in and what you can do, then ask the voters to vote for you. Otherwise you are just a Trojan Horse with tickets inside to anyone with the money and power to get you what you want, then wait for you to pay them back.
I’m not risking my family’s future on Obama’s hope, dreams and changes.

Hillary Clinton can do whatever she feels she must do with respect to Obama. But her supporters are not hers to redistribute. Nothing will induce many of us to vote for Obama — we are not in play as bargaining chips. Speaking for myself, rather than vote for the unqualified and hypocritical Obama, my vote will go to McCain in November.

In addition, rather than send the “debt relief” (RELIEF as if “It” is its own natural disaster area), donors would be well-advised to bypass “It” and send the money straight to the vendors who got stiffed by “It.” Otherwise, they might get stiffed the second time around in lieu of the Clinton 2012 campaign.

Senator Obama, you would be well advised to cut all three Clintons – Bill, Hill, and Chelsea (yes, I mean Hillary Jr too) – completely loose and do not allow them to have any sort of representation in your campaign. Please tell me the primary season has been instructive in that you know a snake will always behave as a snake NO MATTER HOW WELL YOU TREAT IT!!! “It” should pay its own debt from it’s $109 million 2007 income. “It” talked about hard-working Americans getting screwed by The Man over and over and over, never mentioning that those words were its own confession. As a matter of fact, I’m pretty concerned that most of the news lately has been about “It” and not Kathleen Sebelius, Janet Napolitano, Caroline Kennedy, or Michelle Obama who are all capable of reaching out to women (the sane ones, at least) as well.

This man has a general election to raise funds for. Hillary’s debt really can wait or she can come forward with her and her husband’s multimillion dollars. You know, pay her own debt.

It’s very simple. She worked her way into this debt. She can work her way out. I’d make any form of payment conditional. He should offer to help retire her debt after he’s in office. If he doesn’t win then she doesn’t get paid. That way it’s an insurance policy that she’ll have SOME kind of motivation.

She was $5 Million in dept, then $10 Mil, then Then $20 Mul and she kept spending.
Reminds me of people who go to Best Buy and run up credit cards for big screen TV’s just before they go bankrupt.
People forget how much Obama had to spend to keep fighting even after there was no way to win.
I bet she cost Democratic Donars an EXTRA $100 million with here failed campaign.

Charlie35,
How about getting together with your neighborhood friends and having a huge garage sale to help Hill get the creditors off her back?
That can help put your anger to a good cause for Hillary’s sake.

Those of you who continue to say if not Hillary then I’m voting for McCain need to take a step back and think hard if you want 4 more years of “Bush” running this country…….. If you are a true democrat then you’ll support the candidate of the democratic party. Case closed. Otherwise you are telling us that you are a republican…….
No, I’m not a Republican. Nor am I any longer a “true Democrat.” Actually, I don’t think I ever was. What I was, and what I still am, is a true American! And as such I will vote for the candidate that I feel will be better for America. Without Hillary, that candidate is now John McCain.
