1. She's doing it because she's crazy.
And a poor excuse for a Democrat.

Drop the bomb SD's.

3. I heard Thom Hartmann this morning say that he thinks she will
stay in until 5/20 primaries and then quit on a winning streak and say her supporters must now support Obama. Why should you care if her contributors pay back her personal loans? It's not costing YOU anything!

4. I hope he's right... she hasn't shown much in the way of unity skills yet.

6. But I truly believe it is wrong ...
I truly believe it is wrong to lie to people to get them to give you money to pay off debts.


If she knows she has lost, asking for one dime from people who are struggling enough is pure evil.

9. I doubt Hillary's contributors are struggling. I have the impression that
most of the people who contribute to her campaign are well able to toss her some bucks with no problem. You I think are thinking of Barack's supporters who are mostly regular folks that can maybe manage to send him $5.00 ot $10.00 once in a while.

The only candidates I've EVER sent $$ to were Dean and Biden, and even then it was only $10. That's all I could afford!

10. Yup....that is the scenario as I see it too....
...she gets to pay down some of her debt, she goes out with a (small state) win and as she congratulates Obama for his massive win in OR she can bow out gracefully and with some class...

7. I think you guys
are really making much too big a deal out of this. It's not at all unusual for candidates to carry forward debt from campaigns, and Clinton won't have much trouble at all paying this off.
