..."NONE OF THE MONEY RAISED WILL GO TO PAY OFF HILLARY CLINTON'S DEBTS," Chandler wrote to potential givers in an e-mail obtained by Politico. "While you may have heard that Sen. Obama has asked people to make a separate donation to the Clinton campaign for that purpose, neither the law, nor the ethic of this campaign, will allow for any transfer of funds from Obama For America to Clinton."

It’s going to get even more tense. Apparently Hillary supporters aren’t opening their wallets to Obama, either.

Makes you “almost” feel sorry for Hillary - almost....Seems to me like Obama is NOT A VERY GRACIOUS WINNER!

This WON’T help him win HIllary voters over either!

You’d think Obama would’ve gotten the hint when his plane had to land for mechanical problems...

Hillary and/or Bill need to stage a comeback soon or else their earning capacity will drop like a stone. Without the political capital of being a presidential contender, the resulting aftermath will lead to even further erosion of political and financial status.

I look soon for either some dramatic strategy to save her butt or for calamitous decline.

Valid observation, Princess.

If he's elected, he will similarly be an ingrate, as he introduces the his enthusiastic voters to collectivism, re-distribution of their wealth, and outright repression of theirs ideas and freedoms.

Maybe it’s time for the Republicans to pay off Hillary’s debt. Imagine how she and her supporters could help the Republicans this coming election?

Some JustSayNo spokesmen on Fox today said that their group had raised all but 5 million of Hillary's debt, just so they would not have to suck up to the Obamanites. He claimed that within a few days, they would have it all raised.

So true. Much of the $$ in their speaking fees, IMHO, was pre-paid bribes for the POTUS and Co-POTUS. Now there’s no more reason to make those payments.

This is all theatrics. Obama will get his orders from the brass, he'll step down and Hillary will become the Rat nominee, who'll in turn select Obama for VP.

And that's when I pack my bags and move to Costa Rica.

Who can blame Obama supporters. They’re reluctant to open their wallets to someone who knew the odds of winning were against her, yet she arrogantly stayed in the race. She should ask the 18 million who voted for her to donate $1.00 and let’s get her off the stage.

“neither the law, nor the ethic of this campaign, will allow for any transfer of funds from Obama For America to Clinton.”

Obama will need to even more careful before using any ex Hillary aircraft.
