Shame on Obama. But, even more shame for Mr. McCain.

I used to support the Clintons, but they and their followers continue to demonstrate an arrogance and sense of entitlement that is beyond astonishing. It is hardly Barrack Obama's responsibility to fix Hilary Clinton's money problems. She wanted the job, she spent the money to try to get it and lost. Now she needs to deal with it. I wonder how magnanimous these people would be if the results had been reversed...charity is not really part of her nature. Perhaps they should be appealing to the DNC for relief...that would certainly seem to be a more appropriate avenue. It is appalling how egocentric these Clintonites are. They just can't stand to be out of the limelight. This is no longer their time. Propriety would indicate that this type of thing wait until after the election. Any negativity endangers the election possibilities for Obama and other Dems this November. It's a shame that they don't see that...or perhaps that is the point of all of this.......

It almost seems like blackmail- help me with my debt or I won't help you with the election. Dare I say she mismanaged her campaign?

Why???

As for the Clintons, Slick Willie has made over $100 million 'monetizing' his presidency. I wouldn't give them a thin dime.

A grand jury should be formed to investigate and possibly indite Clinton on fraud charges for spending money that she never had. She should go to jail if found guilty.

It is not what she owes, but what our nation owes her.......Are not these goods and services owed to the Clintons, to the Democratic party?....Lets not forget entitlement.

My focus is on beating McCain. Not on retiring a debt that Hillary brought on by mismanaging the finances of her campaign. Imagine if she was running the federal govt! Heaven forbid!

I am a little naive in the political world, but is this common practice??

Hillary was stupid enough to keep going when she should have let it go, so she should have to worry about paying her debt. The Clintons are rolling in it anyway. How arrogant!

Sounds like the 'ol "If I don't get what I want, I am going to take my toys and go home" ploy. Grow up Hillary and pay off the debt that you created while stroking your ego.

Typical politicians. Spend more then they can afford and expect someone else to bail them out.

Don't know if afford is the correct word. Clinton's made 109 million in the past few years. They can pay their own bills and not expect someone to pay them for them.

I know it will be a new concept for them. But that is what the taxpayers have been doing all along.

I believe that we could get great people to run for office if they didn't have to be millionaires in order to do so. And if they aren't wealthy, then they become Union puppets, or some other puppet of a group that supplies the financing. It's really sad.

Obama isn't the first politician to buy votes. Mrs Clinton is not the first woman to pretend to be friends with a man in exchange for money.

My mature response.......

HAHAHEHAHHHOHOHHHEHEHAHAHOHOHO HAHEHAOO.......

Perhaps her Legal husband, the Position-of-Authority-Abuser-I n-Chief, can talk to his Middle Eastern and Chinese partners about tossing a few million at her to fight against this "Vast Left Wing Conspiracy".

Please fade into oblivion Clintons....you have damaged my country enough.

Oh, also....

The Progressive Victims Leftists Democrats ran their "top two" victims group candidates, in the sure and certain knowledge that either victim would garner enough support from their respective co-victims to become a Puppet that could be manipulated by the "Rich White Democrat Male Power Brokers".
The Black Victim prevailed over the Feminist Victim.......it seems only fair that the Black Victims candidate step up and "soothe the pain" of the Feminist Victim
