And why am I nit suprised? BHO could have paid her debt just like every other poli. It just shows, All for ONE and "ME" says the sorta black muslim, Chicago commie…….

Oh cry me a freakin' river!!!!!!!!! Have Bill give a Speech or two and pay
off your debt. You bash Obama and he's supposed to help pay it?
And where are you PUMA morons? Send her your $ and go vote for McDraft who'll take all your $$$$ and give it to the rich.

All of those who areadvocating for Hillary Clinton to be President or vp should be about to clear her debt. In as much as we want party unity or preferrence of candidate, we should also be able to support that candidate fully. Not just verbal sounding cymbals.

I am sick of hearing about her debt!!!!! who isn't in debt these days. She made terrible decisions with spending now everybody supposed to feel sorry for her? Pleez!!! people are struggling to get school supplies for their kids, people are losing their houses and jobs and a woman who has millions and the means to make more millions is an issue? GET REAL!!! WHO CARES ABOUT HILLARY AND HER DEBT!!!!! i wish she would GO AWAY and take bill and chel with her.

An open plea to ALL Clinton supporters*******. Please..we cannot defeat ourselves. Had Hillary won we still would vote for her.We would need to. We cannot let our family squabble let the Republicans keep the White house. Do not help destroy the Clinton legacy. We can not let this be the story this election. Do you really want McCain to further destroy the country. Obama and Hillary are very similar in ideas and goals for the country. Would you really want Karl Rove to win this election again…Please. We NEED you.

nobama should pay…why NOT he bought himself the nomination

For the first time since I could vote, I changed my party affiliation from democrat to Independent. The DNC is showing their true colors and I am tired of them counting on my vote. I am leaning towards not voting in November, there is no lesser of two evils as far as I see it. The lack of respect given to Hillary Clinton is astonishing. Regardless if you like her or not she does not deserve to be treated this way.

I truly believe that Obama's supporters would pay off her debt within 10 days depending on how she behaved at the convention.

sooooo she really doesnt have 18million supporters? Barack Obama has rasied hundreds of millions of dollars off of 2 million donors and clinton cant raise 20million with 18million supports?

And what is Lynn forrester refering to "what the Clintons have given Obama" . Nothing! Her campaign was ruinous to her own parties chances of winning the White House paving the way for the republicans win and her next campaign !! why would I pay for that!!

She can pay her own debt off it is really pathetic when you have to ask a country that is in a recession to pay your debt off and you are a millionaire. The one good thing about this is no matter what if Obama wins or loses HRC is done if she tries to run again many of his supporter will not support her again and she will lose even worse. HRC and the PUMA need to realize in order for her to become POTUS she would need the support of O's supporters in 2012 and that is not going to happen. I like Bill Clinton but HRC is disgusting.

Her vocal (I will vote for McSame) 18 million supporters each gives $1.50. She will erase the debt, and have money left over for a vacation with big Bill….better yet, during the convention week!

Clinton would have relieved Obama's debt. You're a spoiled little brat, Barack. I'm going to vote for an adult.

I wish she would be the VP, doubtful but is a wish. I really feel that she is ready to lead and is a very gracious and skilled politician. she will bounce; she is an effective leader and she will be o.k.

If each of those "18 million" voices demanding to be heard next week chipped in one dollar, it would make a sizeable dent in her debt.
Time to pony up, ladies, if you really believe in and want to help your candidate.

And for those of you who insist you'll vote McCain — be sure to talk to your sons, daughters, nieces, nephews, grandsons & granddaughters about a little thing called THE DRAFT. Apparently from yesterday's town hall in NM, he agrees with reinstating; in other words, bringing back the draft. Wake up, wise up, and GROW UP.

Hey still for hill, since you still support Hillary, Help her retire her debt. There are 18 million of you aren't there? 1 dollar a piece would pay her debt.
Pathetic losers.

Hillary (and Bill) Clinton care nothing for our country, and never have. They only care about themselves; their delicate egos are bruised so easily. Barak Obama owes them nothing-he has been plenty gracious to their whining and petulance.

I'm upset that my money went to her campaign and she didn't finish the deal. I'm confused that my fellow Hillary supporters find that her current debt is Obama's fault. My fellow women must not own up to a car accident that they caused while putting on make-up. WEAK.

If Obama doesent pay Clintons debt, she will make sure he fails… its already in her best interest… without a behind the scenes agreement one could say Bye Bye Obama…

Why hasn't Hillary been much more visable campaigning for Obama? The more visable - the more money, Hillary.

So Hillary–who spent money she didn't have in order to "throw the kitchen sink" at Obama–wants Obama to pay those bills? Give me a break!

She wouldn't be so deep in debt if she hadn't stayed in the race for months after it became evident that she couldn't catch up. (Evident at least to those in her camp and in the press who didn't have a vested interest in pretending it was a close race.)

It would be a horrible precedent to set where the unfairly tarnished winner is expected to cover the expenses of a fiscally irresponsible opponent's mud slinging.

I love both Obama and Clinton. Caucused for Obama, but it was hard to choose him over Clinton.

However, her campaign may just go down as one of the worst managed in the history of modern politics…

Once again CNN is this another attempt to make Obama look bad like all the other stories ya'll be running these past few weeks.

Why should it be up to Obama to retire her debt. She knew the race was lost however it was her decision to stay in and spend money that she didn't have. The Clintons have way more money than Obama pay off your own debt just like the rest of us.

And where in the hell is all the PUMA's! You can't find one whenever this topic comes up!

Still for Hill…

It's supporters like you that she's in the trouble she's in… all talk… all tears.. no action. And how can you be so dead set on voting for someone who's so bad at managing something as simple as a campaign? You must really want our country to be economically bankrupt.

Anyone still surprised that Hillary's 18 million haven't helped her retire this debt yet?

Maybe Rush Limbaugh should encourage all his operation chaos people to repair the damage they've caused.

Still for Hill, how much money have you and your other friends given to clear Hills debt? I guess she should have thought about this when she tried to throw everything at him including the kitchen sink.

I can not understand why some of Mrs. Clinton's supporter are sceaming now about Obama helping her pay her debt. I am trying to understand the isea. If you do not have the money to pay your bills, do not use your credit, if she did overspend, it shows her lack of fiscal resposability. In addition, her behavior lately related to her silence about the convention does not encourages people like me, an Obama supporter, to help pay her bills. She wanted to play hard ball, she needs to face the consecuences. her husband has NOT been very gracious either. how come none or her supporters say anything about that.
Good luck to Mrs. Clinton.

An open plea to ALL Clinton supporters*******.Please..we cannot defeat ourselves. Had Hillary won we still would vote for her.We would need to. We cannot let our family squabble let the Republicans keep the White house. Do not help destroy the Clinton legacy. We can not let this be the story this election. Do you really want McCain to further destroy the country. Obama and Hillary are very similar in ideas and goals for the country. Would you really want Karl Rove to win this election again…Please. We NEED you.

Yeah we'll take our $1.00 with us if Hillary's not on the ticket.

I do not feel sorry for her.

Why does anyone except the candidate themselves have to pay for their debt incurred by fiscal irresponsibility?
I am voting Obama, I will not vote at all if Hillary is on the ticket.
If Mccain wins, my family is leaving this country that we have lived in, since the early 1700's, due to his bringing back the draft, he will remove a woman's choice. The economy will get worse as nuclear, wind, and new drilling will all take 10 yrs to start paying off. Still no health care for all. And who knows how many wars we will be fighting.

OK, republicans pretending to be democrats. We've caught on to your "where are her 18 million", your "the primary was stolen", your "puma for mcbush", and your "no deal" attempts to stir the democratic party. Don't worry, once Obama is elected president, he will go out to help HRC raise money to settle the debts she owes to vendors. But, for now we need to focus on the White House. She understands. She won't get her personal money back. So, come up with something new and exciting please?

Well Hillary now wants everyone to pay up for her debts incurred while being a candidate. Well that is TOOOOOO BAD. Let her pay her on debts. We are still paying for all the debts her husband got us in while he was president. Who pays your debts? So let her pay her own way. This is one thing wrong with our country. We tax payers pay for EVERYTHING. The Clinton's have plenty of money so let them start hashing it out for the debts.

The Clintons are worth more than $100 Million. They should stop whining, they knew they were a long shot when they barely won Texas, they continued to spend, they can pay it themselves.

Why so much rush ???
Hillary debt can wait !!!

A $ here a $ there, just $1 per supporter. Is that too much to ask?

Wait, what has she done for Obama, other than give him lukewarm endorsements and a failure to get the vote out for he Democrat colleague? I'm certainly not going to throw my hard earned money at her: I want Obama to win in November. He gets my donation every time.

Hey STILL FOR HILL, how much did you donate? It seems all you have to give is disrespect and hatred. It must suck to be you.

I guess PUMA is broke to then huh…Maybe she could ask John McCain to sell 6 of his 7 houses for Hillary to help pay down her debt, after all PUMA's is going to put him in the White-House right and whats a house or two among friends?

LMAO

McCain/Hillary 08′-12′-16′-20′

PONY UP PUMA…..hahaha

Once again, CNN posting, and within two minutes removing my comment. What's the matter? Not pro-Obama enough for you? Hypocrites!

Bribery!!! If All of Hillary's supporters, friends, surrogates and sorrygates vote for Obama, "Yes We Can" people will pay off her debt before Christmas! - After Obama wins!

So somebody HAS gone broke underestimating the intelligence of the American public.

Obama Lovers:

I suggest that the 18M supportors for Hillary vote for McCain. Also, the Independents and Republicans for Hillary should vote for McCain. I'm sure they will pay off Hillary Clinton's bills.

what did they expect when they forced her to suspend her campaign

I've given all the money I can afford to give. I dont have any fear for the Clintons though…when Barack Obama loses, she will have money flowing it like a flood!

Why should Obama Pay her dept off? 2 million people were able to raise 50 million for Obama. Why can't the 18 million Hillary supporters raise 24 million? IT IS ONLY 2 BUCKS A PERSON!!!!!!!

This is where all you Clinton die hards really need to put your money where your mouth is. I am an Obama backer and I contributed to her. Why have you all forsaken her?????????

I am beginning to see that Clinton is not hoping for an Obama loss. It is clear that she does not have a lot of support among democrats. She would not have a chance in a 2012 primary.

Hillary and Bill are barely around talking up Obama. Where is the ACTION??

Until I see Hillary and Bill REALLY stumping for Obama–I will hold on to my money.

Hmm? Wonder how well Hillary Clinton's Health Care Plan would have been been managed?

PUMA cannot help her. They're a pathetic group of people. Last week on MSNBC's Hardball, one of their spokeswoman said that PUMA contributors raised $50,000 in total for their group. That is miniscule compared to how much Clinton owes in debts. It also shows how small the PUMA group is, as well as how insignificant their negative effect will be on Obama.

She stayed in way to long helping John McCain with talking points and know "Obamabots" should pay off her debt?

Has everyone forgotten the Hillary remark about her an McCain are qualified (to be President) but Obama isn't.

She has hijacked the convention because it's all about her (and him)
and she lost. Still all we hear from Hillary supporters are threats about how he should pick her for VP or the will vote for McCain.

With all the love she has given why should WE pay her debts.
If it does come down to 2012 I WILL NEVER VOTE FOR HER

It's ungracious to tear your party apart because you can't admit defeat. With how Hillary treated Obama during the primary, how does he owe her anything.

I truly believe that if she behaves like a team player at the convention, Sen Obama's supporters will clear all her debt within one week.

down with mccain

The giant conspiracy group known as "the voting public" cruelly stole this primary from Hillary. They must be stopped, Hillary must show these "voters" her true strength by taking the nomination with her fuzzy math and baseless accusations.

so…18 million Hillary voters and none can help her out?

Oh yeah, that's probably because ONLY 11% say that they are undecided or will vote for McCain.

I tend to believe that at least half that number will vote Obama (the undecideds) and about 2% will vote for McCain.

The nuts you see here are just McCain surrogates (aka Operation Chaos)

DON'T BELIEVE THE HYPE!

My wife once asked me if we could really afford to go to Vegas on vaction and my reply was "heck yeah I'm gonna win the money back that we pay for the trip". I'm an experienced poker player.

Well of courseI lost. And now she has to gotten a second job to match the 2 that I have so we don't lose our house. I wish Hillary had called my wife before she decided to gamble on a losing cause.

Needless to say I'm no longer in a leadership position in my house.

McCain/Clinton 08′-12′-16′-20.

If she put an endo to these rabid PUMA Punks, I would consider sending her $1. Add my $1 to her 18 million supporters who should send her at least $1, her debt would be covered. Do your part Hillary and really support Obama and you will feel better about yourself and be out of debt as well.

Please Obama supporters do not donate money to the Clintons, they are playing by plan#2 making Obama loose to run again in 1212, Mr. Bill Clinton said at an energy event that Mccaine has a good energy plan and he was praising him like in the primaries, and also her nasty republican attacks are being used by the Mccaine campaign. So if Obam losses this election we can all blame Hillary and Bill.

Obama/Biden 08

I wonder if Obama's own supporters ever actually listen to him. Obama himself has called for unity, praised Clinton, and was advocating a positive message of hope. Somehow all I hear from his supporters is hate, hate, and more hate. And it's not even against republicans. It's against fellow democrats. Is this the 'unity' Obama himself asked for?

If she's the VP I'll help with her debt. Otherwise maybe she shouldn't have gone so negative on a fellow democrat. Its now being reported she's giving McCain the playbook. Good luck!

I don't mean to be divisive. But, her debt is not Obama's problem. And since her supporters like to throw her "18mm votes in Obama's and his supporters' faces, why not go to those supporters. A mere pittance of $1 per voter could eliminate the debt she owes to vendors, plus a large portion of what she owes herself.

The fact of the matter is, she no longer has 18mm voters supporting her, and these few idiotic outspoken ones who can't let go, know it. But, they like to blame others for her problems. Really people, get a life.

"He has provided her with a pittance compared to what the Clintons have given Obama"

What did the Clintons ever give Obama?? Bill said he wasn't ready to be President, and Hillary is making an effort for Obama, but still, this "prominent Clinton backer" makes it seem as if Obama owes the Clintons, when in reality, the Clintons haven't given Obama anything!

Lynn Forrester's comments that Barrack could have paid off Hillary's debt in 10 days, ungracious. What I find ungracious is Hillary's trying to "look Presidential" at the convention. The lights shinning, balloons falling from the ceiling, her image being shown on the Jombotron's and her name being placed in nomination? What's that about??? It looks like someone (HIllary) can't get over loosing the nomination.

Where are all of the Puma's? Those so called 18 million voters who were her supporters? Remember, $ 1. ea. and she would have paid off what she owes the venders and paid back some to herself. Where are they? I guess its true. Money only flows to winners. That puts more truth into a lobbyist statement "If you don't hold the office, how can you help our interest?"

Wasn't Obama supposed to help her out? Like when I met Obama, I told him I was a medical student at U of Chicago, and that student debt was important to me. He said for me to let him know if I ever needed any help. Yeah right!

She's been unrelenting in her support. Where's the loyalty, Obama? That really scares me.

Why are you running this again, in the top spot or even at all? Is it just to stir up trouble before the convention? Obama is busy trying to fend off the McCain machine in case you didn't notice, and doesn't really have time to tend to Hillary Clinton's problems. Besides, he's giving her top billing at the convention, letting her put her name into nomination, etc. He is certainly helping her. Please get together there in the newsroom and come up with some news.

if hillary vp how will her and her puma pay of her debt

First, Hilliary's debt is her own. She incurred it and now both Clintons have to pay the part that is not her loan to the campaign. It is very hard to believe that this debt cannot be paid down by both Clintons with their large earning powers.

On Mark Penn - Let him whistle for his money. He gave her a lot of bad advice and that is mainly the reason she is not the nominee.

what happened to that PUMA..did they not raise $6 million???

OK, I've decided. I'm going with McCain.
Don't tell Barack. He still thinks Bill and I are out campaigning for him.

H A V E—W A R R E N—-B U F F E T T——G E O R G E ——-S O R O S—-

G E O R G E—-C L O O N E Y——A N D—-T H E I R—————————-

C O N N E C T I O N S———-G O—–I N T O—- T H E I R——$ $ $ $ $ $ $

I am not understanding this. IF she had 18 million supporters, and they each gave just $1, then that would be ………say it with me…….$18 million of this debt gone. Where is PUMA and this site's infamous Still For Hill at with the money to help their girl out? Maybe it stands to reason that Rush's operation chaos may have actually played a part in those 18 million. Makes you wonder doesn't it!!! The way her campaign was run speaks VOLUMES to her leadershop ability!

Why aren't her 18 million supporters helping her? If they all pitched in $2.00 each, that would solve it. Instead, they are on these blogs with threats of voting for McCain, being outward nasty and hateful and wanting to bring down a good democratic candidate for President of The United States.

To Alex:
I guess you didn't hear that Bill Richardson DID have a couple of fundraisers for Hillary to help her pay off her debt!

I think a lot of people, Hillary supporters as well, were a little disappointed with the careless way Hillary spent money during her campaign. She was wasteful in the early months and did not plan for a long fight.

I support her, but I will not give my money to someone who made careless finanical mistakes.

I will send her a donation if she and her husband do the right thing at the convention.

Hillary has conceded. She explicitely and repeatedly told her supporters to unite and vote for Obama. She has campaigned for and raised more money for Obama than all of his other rivals combined. (whom you don't seem to criticize at all) Still not satisfied? But then again you don't care about your own Obama's call for unity and positive hope either. You don't listen to your own candidate. All you care about is hate, hate, hate…

How many times does this have to be said…
Clinton's debt is her responsibility, not Obama's. He has a campaign to run. Hers was mismanaged big time, hence her current financial mess.
Why aren't her $18 million loyal supporters coming to her rescue?

Why can't Obama pay off her debt? Seems a fair trade for her support.
For a guy that doesn't like rich people, he sure is tight with his millions and millions of campaign money.

I hear Hillary poeple have been meeting with McCain people, including her brother. Maybe they're making a deal. McCain pay off her debt and she undermine Obama.

Mitts going to Denver for the convention. Maybe he's bringing the payoff money. Maybe in her DNC speech Hillary will tell Obama where he can stick all his money, I'm taking my supporters and I'm outa here.

She can afford it. I'm not concerned for her and this really isn't news. Just goes to show you that her "18 million cracks" aren't cracking up to be what she says they are.

Think about it–if each of those 18 million people gave just $1 each, she'd almost make it. Why can't they each cough up a buck? Interesting, isn't it?

People talk about 18,000,000 voters for Hillary and that all of them should contribute. Consider that Barack had a few more voters, yet only 2,000,000 have contributed to him. Granted that is a large and even record number of contributors, but that is only 1/9th the number of his voters. How then can you expect ALL of the people who voted for Hillary to contribute? Remember she has helped Barack raise money for his campaign. Once my roommate pays me, I will try to contribute both to Hillary and to Barack. I think the idea was that the people who have maxed out to Hillary's campaign could contribute to Obama, and the one's maxed out to Obama could help Hillary with her debt.

Why can't the HRC supporters retire her debt? The donations to Barack from his supporters MUST be used to get the Republicans out of the Executive Branch.

OK, how the hell did Hillary plan to govern this nation, when she can't even run a smart campaig? Obama has showned more leadership than her!!!

Obama/Biden 08

Whatever Mark Penn wants $5 million for, it wasn't worth it. He biffed on the delegate count, he recommended a disastrous "put it all on double zero" Super Tuesday strategy, and he's done more to help John McCain than he has to to help Hillary. Sorry, Hillary, I'm not giving you my hard earned cash so you can hand it over to that moron. Announce that you're stiffing Penn and we can talk.

CNN or better still CLINTON NEWS NETWORK: Why do you guys put up all this nonsense about Clinton everyday on your ticker? Your candidate lost and you should get over it. There is no point reporting on Clinton's debt when there are more important issues facing the country. Many other democrats in the primaries also lost, but I don"t see their names on the ticker everyday.

who cares about her debt,,, she and bill make more money than the average american. she ran up the bill, let the woman of many faces pay the thing herself if she any extra money she can deposit it in my bank account and help out someone on S.S.

One good thing about it is that she and President Clinton have enough money of their own to clear up the debt if she does not raise the money. Mark Penn helped her to lose so maybe he can just write it off or lobby some of the other foreign countries he had been lobbying and make up the money owed there. As far as the comment by Lynn Forrester - Senator Obama is still running a campaign and not only fighting against Senator McCain but also the die hard Clinton supporters.

With all due respect to Billary, this is yet more reason why I'm glad she didn't win the nomination. Tell me, all your Hillary fans, how would you expect her to win the election when she had to loan herself money just to keep her campaign afloat? The GOP fundraising machine has been extremely strong the last few elections and would have buried her. We can disagree on the policy differences between Obama and Hillary, but like it or not, fundraising ability is a significant factor in an election, and Obama is by far the best fundraiser of the trio of himself, Hillary, and McCain. If Hillary can't manage her own finances, how do we expect her to handle those of the country?

superdelegates it isn't too late, nominate hillary! if the democrats have any chance of winning this election, it's with hillary on top of the ticket. look what the republicans are doing to obama, and he is visibly cracking more every day. hillary is a fighter, she will take care of her campaign debt, without the messiahs charity. hillary 08, or it will be mccain 08!

People and thei prejudices… You're talking as if the winner of a primary helping the loser's debt is something outrageous or unprecedented. It is actually quite commonplace. So stop your pretentious rage!

I WANT ONLY YOUR VOTERS , I DONT WANT YOUR DEBT.

“He has provided her with a pittance compared to what the Clintons have given Obama,” prominent Clinton backer Lynn Forrester told the Times of London. “Her debt could have been cleared within 10 days. It’s ungracious.”

All they've given Obama is headache after headache. Puh-lease.

I do not think Hillary will be on the Obama ticket due to her great debt.
If he has not helped her now, what would the benefit be if he did? I do not think he would get many votes for helping with her money problems.

Obama doesn't deserve any support from Hillary Clinton at all. He's a disappointment on so many levels. Besides, now that it's obvious that he and his backers think that he can win without her help, she should stand back and watch him lose.

Knoxville

Name Harry Reid as VP candidate and let him raise money.

ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha……………

If Russia invades Georgia, it's about Hillary. If the olympics' all-time records are broken, it's about Hillary. If the apocalypse comes and blood flows on the streets it's about Hillary. If OJ Simpson finally admits his guilt, it's about Hillary.
You know, Hillary wouldn't appear one hundredth as arogant if CNN would just stop mentioning her ten times in every single news bit!

Whether or not pbama chooses her as his vp running mate, Hillary still has her supporters to help her pay off her debt . her supporters will pay off her debt if obama does not pick her.Because her supporters will not have to contribute to Obama's campaign..
It certainly will help if Obama is not dumb enough to ignore her.

Tell Bill to give some more speeches on loyalty and honesty LOL

HER HUSBAND HAS 500 MILLION DOLLARS…..WHO THE HELL CARES IF SHES IN DEBT???????????

I'm glad she lost because if she can't manage her own campaign's finances responsibly, who knows how she would have managed the national debt. I can't fathom that she would expect Obama to help her pay this off because she did this to herself and could have avoided this if she wasn't in denial in the primaries.

And Obama is responsible for Hillary's debt? In what way? She was the one who decided to spend money she didn't have on a campaign she knew she couldn't win.

She wasted money she did not have. I don't think Obama would be a good leader if he used his supporters money to help her. Hillary keeps touting her 18 million supporters…one dollar from each of them would do the trick…put your money where your mouth is all you so called Hillary supporters.

And the number of ticker articles on relevant political issues affecting us today is, once again, zero!

It's official. PUMA and all those that post these Hilllary or else.,Hillary 2012 and so on are fakes. She was only able to raise just over 2 million in July? A Republican scam absolutely. I say whatever is left after the election give to Hillary's debt. Let's make sure the right man gets in office first. Hillary's debt (I am sorry to say) is not primary as the welfare of the US is.

The Clinton egos cost the Obama campaign millions more than they would have needed to had she dropped out earlier. I was thinking of donating to pay off her debt but she has continued to stoke the fires of negativity (in between her appearances for Obama) among her supporters so I definitely will send that money to the Obama campaign instead.

This is why Hillary and Bill need to leave the democratic party. Obama is all about his ego and himself and doesn't give a rip about fellow democrats.

Down with Obama! Down with Obama! Down with Obama!

I wouldn't spit on him if he were on fire!

If all the Clintonistas, such as Mark Penn and Susan Estrich, would stop slamming Obama, then maybe more of the Obama supporters would feel better about donating to Clinton to retire her debt.

I've got to believe that most people think her debt is not their problem…I pay my bills…she should pay hers…it's just wrong to expect someone else to pay YOUR bills….

Now that we know what advice Penn was providing to the campaign, I think he should take his $5 million bill and stick where the sun don't shine.

How pathetically stupid can Lynn Forrester be? The idea here is to WIN this election, not help Hillary Clinton retire her debt. As many people have stated many, many times, if all Hillary's PUMA's gave her just 2 dollars, she'd be flush in cash. Instead of paying to help her, I guess it's more important to complain, whine, moan, cry and threaten . It doesn't cost anything to do that (except, of course, possibly an election, but why should that matter to the PUMA's, who have made it clear it's person above party.)

Are you kidding me? People have the nerve to put this on Obama for not raising money for Hilary?

She has "18 million" supporters, and where are they?! They threaten to not vote for Obama, and to protest etc.

Yet less than TWO MILLION dollars was given to HRC in July? haha!! Hilary's supporters are ALL TALK, if they actually WALKED the WALK, they would help their "Hero" Hilary.

Yet they think she should be running the US of A. Riiiiight.

"It's ungracious" they say….the arrogance of Clintonites is amazing. He has to be gracious to you people??? For what? Name one thing which Hilli-Billy have done for Obama campaign…I mean name one 'positive' thing they have done.

well, you can't force people to donate to her campaign. You can't blame Obama. He can tell his supporters to donate, but people make their own decisions. Considering how she treated him badly and her supporters/backers continue to do so as well as 49% of the people don't want to see her as president ever, I can see why she is still in debt. You can't expect to treat people badly and then ask for their help.

WOW ! ON A DAY LIKE THIS..DEMS COULDN ASK FOR MORE…CHAOS!….I'M NOT BUYING THIS-LET STICK TO PU (Party Unity)
PU all the way

In other words, she couldn't run her campaign business well, how do we expect her to run the country's business?? She should have stopped in March. A prime example of Bushonomics …SPENDING MONEY THAT SHE DOESN'T HAVE!!!

IF SHE WERE TO GET INTO THE WHITEHOUSE THIS WAY, WHO WOULD BE LEFT TO PAY OFF THE DEBT …THE TAX PAYERS!

OBAMA '08 -
SOMEONE WITH FISCAL AWARENESS AND FISCAL RESPONSIBILITY

She should have dropped out of the race much sooner. Being too prideful can be a very expensive lesson to learn.

where's all her so-called supporters?

So much for her all talk 18 million cracks. And you expect Obama supporters to be afraid of your threatened support for McCain when you don't support your candidate. Mark Penn isn't worth 5 cents his firm should write that off. She should pay the small business first. Come on PUMA people she has until the convention

Its TOO BAD THAT HER 'PUMA' SUPPORTERS DO NOT HELP THE LADY OUT!

PUT YOUR MONEY WHERE YOUR MOUTH IS!

Hilary will be just fine, as she sells plenty of books. Maybe if she had bowed out of the race at the right time she would not be so far in debt.

Obama 08!! No More McSame!!

I'd donate to her if she was actively campaigning for Obama like she had promised…

Why do Hillary's supporters feel it's Obama's responsibility to help pay off her debts? We're talking about debts that were created in an effort to continue negative ads towards Barack? I'm at a loss of words…

ALSO, IS THIS THE EXPERIENCE THAT SHE WAS READY TO USE ON THE 3 A.M. CALL! ! !

aright all of you HRC backers and you so called puma where is your money now As a side note she should sued Mark Penn for thief of service for not knowing how the del are given out.

Good grief! She was willing to gamble and she lost.
Give her time, she and Bill can afford to pa up.

Sorry I wasn't able tp comment before you closed on the article about Harry saying he can't stand McCain. Liberals do tend to have a problem with war heroes.

She needs to pay it herself. You did not see Romney whining. He just accepted it.

SOME JUDGEMENT HILLARY USED. AMERICA COULD NOT AFFORD TO HAVE HER AS PRESIDENT!

Election donation rules prevent Clinton supporters from making more contributions to her campaign but her supporters can donate to Obama, so she is helping Obama and he is not returning the favour.

They wonder why Clinton and her supporters are not lining up behind this guy.

Boohoo hoo hoo. Clinton needs to just shut up.

Some "Unity!" I wonder if people like Gov Richardson contributed any money to help settle her debt. He didn't seem to have any problem playing the "Benedict Arnold" role along with the rest of the fine, upstanding and loyal Democrats. I'd love to see the Democratic Party loose this elections if for no other reason than for stabbing Hillary Clinton in the back and picking the wrong person as their nominee!

“It’s ungracious.”

Pot calling the kettle black there don't ya think? Clinton should have stepped aside to rally behind Obama more than a month before she did. Had she been "gracious" enough to set her ego aside the following would have happened:
1) she would not have had to use her own funds to lend her campaign
2) she could have begun the repayment and fundraising for debt sooner
3)she could have started to help unifying the party earlier rather than further dividing it.

I don't understand why Hillary's rabid supporters get bent out of shape about Obama supporters not helping Hillary. If there are 18 million Hillary supporters, why does she still have millions of dollars of debt? Why should Obama supporters pay for her poor decisions when they didn't support those decisions to begin with? It seems to me that Hillary's supporters aren't happy about *anything* and all that complaining gets old very quickly.

And for all those Hillary supporters who say they are voting for McCain, why aren't you whining about him not helping her retire her debt?

I will send her campaign $200 if she and her supporters behave themselves at the convention next week.

Obama '08

“He has provided her with a pittance compared to what the Clintons have given Obama,” prominent Clinton backer Lynn Forrester told the Times of London. “Her debt could have been cleared within 10 days. It’s ungracious.”

What exactly has Clinton done for Obama? Her camp had better cage that "Puma" before you ask for help.

Look, what's ungracious is that Hillary, demanded so much at this convention, and has not really helped stand down these PUMA Fools. What's ungracious is that Bill did not say that Barack was ready to be President on national TV. This did not help Barack. Barack is still fighting the Clintons and that Adulturous MCcsame at the same time. When does he have the time to help payoff her self inflicted debt?…If those phony PUMA freaks ponied up a buck each, it would be paid for by now, but they won't because they are Republicans in disguise planted by Limbaugh to do harm to the Democratic party. Think about it.

Hillary need s more time for her court case for campaiggn fraud in California… Poor Hilar abd Bill they will not see one day in Jail.

So why doesn't Obama pay her debt off like she paid off another candidate that dropped out. Dean was in debt and his was paid off. Obama can't use the money for personal expenses under the Ethics Reform Act anyway. Clinton put on her website for her supporters to donate to Obama to win the Presidency so thats what they are doing. He should pay her debt off and be done with it. She isn't asking for her personal money back.

Ah…what happened to her 18 million supporters??

With the behavior of many Clinton supporters and their continuing efforts to derail his candidacy is anyone surprised he isn't bending over backwards trying to help her get out of debt? If Clinton's vocal supporters would have just bowed out gracefully you might very well now see a an Obama/Clinton ticket with her fully out of debt by now. If those of you die hard Clinton fans who are working so hard to make Obama lose want to know who is responsible for her current troubles you might want to look in the mirror. YOU are the reason she is in so much financial trouble and YOU are the reason she will never be the President of the United States.

I sure am amazed that Billary's debt hasn't gone down more than that. Guess that initial $ 3 mill which was probably from Obama supporters trying to help wasn't enough to motivate ALL those 18 MILLION mouthy an hateful PUMA's to step up to the plate for their annoited one! Maybe there were more Chaos people voting for her than not. Glad Obama has REAL supporters.

If most is owed to Mark Penn no wonder Obama has not according to some been as gracious in helping with Hillary's debt. Forget it.

I don't understand! The Clinton campaign racked up this debt and
Senator is balmed for roviding just a pittance to reduce Hillary's debt.
This is not his responsibility and "after what the Clinton's have given
Obama". Just what did he get from the Clinton's other then a lot of negativity? Sen Obama won the race and won it without bad mouthing
the Clintons. If her supporters are not willing to contribute to pay off her debt then why is it Obama's responsibility. Let former President
Clinton go out and give another speech and retire the debt. Is this just another way of the Clinton's trying to hang somthing negative
towards Barack? You decide!!!!!

a year before bill was elected president the clinton net worth was less then $200,000. Net worth for the clintons now is somewhere in excess of 50 million dollars. I wont contribute one wooden nickle to hillary. Let her Arabic friends pay it off.

She can end the debt now if she calls off all the puma and others who are disrupting the campaign. I will personally give if I was hearing from her that she disavoued the trouble makers acting in her name.

IF she is flattered by the attention at the expense of our country, then she shoud pay her own debts,

If the situation were reversed and Clinton won the nomination, would Hillary be expected to pay his debt?

This woman drug Obama through the mud and her supporters are "expressing disappointment" that Obama hasn't rushed to help her out. Sorry, folks, he's got a much more important campaign to run right now. Maybe later. It was her decision to spend money she didn't have — money spent on hurting Obama.

I am sick of hearing about Clinton's debt. Why can CNN get off of that story? Hillary was the one that decided to spend that money to bash Obama after she knew that wasn't going to win. It is Hillary that needs to find a way to pay it off herself. She can get Bill to write her a check with all of that money he made overseas!

Obama/Sebelius '08

So Clinton only raised 2M in July compared to Obama's 50M. What does that tell you right there. Her campaign was very poorly run and obviously she was not the right candidate for the Demorcratic Nomination. She can affort to pay off her own debt. Why should anyone else be stuck with that mess.
Clintons are poor losers!
Obama for President

That is the first time I have heard her say she is not asking to pay back herself. I actually give her credit and will now send her a $10 check.

Vendors are the innocent and I am compelled to help them get paid back.

Ask Lynn Forrester to forget about spending another honeymoon at the White House!!!!!!

What exactly has Clinton given Obama, other than a serious headache and a division of the party? He doesn't owe her ANYTHING. If he decides to help pay down her debt, that would be a nice gesture. But it's definitely not required of him. She went for broke and lost - maybe she should have rolled it up when it became clear she could not catch up.

Explain this one to me….I rack up a huge debt trying to beat my opponent even after it was crystal clear that I couldn't win. I poison my voters against my opponent and do a very poor job of bringing the parties together in unity. I keep stirring the pot to keep my backers' bitterness up and then blame all my debt woes on the winner? I'll tell you who's not gracious…

Gramma form Canada

WHERE ARE HER 18 MILLION VOTERS!!!!!!!!!!!

SHOW SOME LOVE TO YOUR GIRL AND ALL OF YOU GIVE $1 EACH AND SHE WILL BE FREE OF HER DEBT!

YOU CLINTON SUPPORTERS ARE ALL TALK AND NO ACTION!!!

SORRY BUNCH!

My money going to a sleazbag like Mark Penn?

Penn spent years defending the Clitons, but wrote in a memo that they should exploit Obama's lack of "American values"

What exactly is an "american value?" Having sex with an intern? Lying about dodging sniper fire?

Let the Obama camp's hatefest begin… 5, 4, 3, 2, 1…

She needs to pay her debt off. In the real world her credit would have been messed up and she would not have been able to finace to finance a pencil. And, there would have been no one to bail her out.

How is this possible with 18 million supporters? Less than $1.50 would take care of the whole thing. I'm not a supporter but I'll send my $1.50 if that will make this whole issue go away. PUMAs come on?

As far as Lynn Forrester, shouldn't Obama's FIRST priority be to make sure he has the funds to get elected versus retiring a debt that he had no responsibility for accruing?

Hey PUMA's!

It only takes $1 per "18 million" primary supporters.

Where the hell are all or you people?

Must be sending your money to Mc"Keating" and the RNC.

ONE QUESTION.

Which Mc"Adulterer" house should I send my donation to?

I really feel for you Hillary… But then you don't have any "Dirty Arab Oil" in your Pocket…. Time will tell!!! You just keep punching Girl…

I have made two contributions to Hillary, nothing close to those Obama's followers make.

Someone close to Obama please tell him this.

if he is going to be president, he will be working for the rest of us. If we don't like the job he does, we can get rid of him.

Having said this, tell him to cough up the name of his VP selection so WE THE PEOPLE can vet this guy.

We need to know NOW, not when it is convenient for our employer.

The election is a few months away and she wants to pinch her pennies now? Why didn't she think about this while still running her campaign against impossible odds?

wait that cant be true…but didn't PUMA help Hill in her debt? i mean they surly could not have been sitting in front of their computers hating on Obama…i mean IF Hill is still in debt then that would only mean that PU MA, and STALE FOR HILL are just well, just full of it..go figure, just when i was going to give up on Barack and write Hill's name in…lol…and…lol….join….PUMA…OMG…i cant breathe LOL

Where are her 18 million supporters during this time of her need? If each sent $1.00 the debt would be morethan erased. Puma ….put your money where your mouth is NOW.

Okay CNN, do we have to go over this again. It must be a slow news day. Here's what's going to happen on this post.

People will beat up on Hillary and complain that she wouldn't have any debt if she had just gotten out of the race.

Then PUMA will argue that Barack was disloyal and should "retire" her bill.

Then it will go on and on with B supporters saying H can go to …and H supporters saying they will vote for McCain.

Do me a favor CNN, take this off the blog and give us some real news. Yada, yada, yada…it's Groundhog Day again.

She made a conscious decision to stay in the race, even when she had no money to continue. Why should others pay for that egotistical decision.

HIllary cannot even deal with her own debt and she thinks she can run a country? And now her supporters are blaming her inability to clear her debt on Obama? There's a reason she is the most divisive person in politics and this is one prime example.

As an Obama supporter, I donated to Hillary to help her with her debt. I only say this because it's time to set aside our differences (which are minor) and focus on beating Bush.. I mean McCain.. this fall.

Hillary. You are supposed to be the experienced one to manage your campaign. When it was time to go out you didnt. Now look what happened. You messed it up.

puma and mcsame should pay her debt. mcsame is the one getting their votes

Hillary,

Take the nomination in Denver that is RIGHTFULLY yours. The money will come flowing in.

The election has been STOLEN from you and from the voters by Obama, Reid and Pelosi.

HRC'08/'12

Why aren't all you "Obama better pick Hillary for VP or I'm not voting for him" fanatics paying off her debts? Put your money where your mouth is.

The democratic primary was over after Texas and Hill knew it.

WHY, WHY, WHY should anyone feel a responsibility to pay off her debt? The fact that vendors are still waiting for their money is absolutely shameful!

Watch out next week. She may be "The One." Also, I figured out why the Obamabots call McCain's "The One" adds blasphemy. It is because they think he is God.

Where's PUMA??? Cat got your tongue??? LMAO!!!!!!!!!!!!

You cannot be in debt to yourself.

She should wait until after the election for us to pay off her debt. I will contribute to her on that. But right now my money goes to winning this election by Barak.

CNN, what is a disclosure "repot"???

Glad to see Dems still flailing aimlessly about. You will get crushed in November.

Am I shocked? No!

repeat:
CNN, still not one word about McCain's statement that he does not disagree with the need to reinstate the draft?

Did anyone call his campign to get clarification?

God knows John McCain doesn't speak for the McCain campaign.
