Comments on: Clinton Brings What Obama Needs: Money

Hillary Clinton's Contribution To Barack Obama's Campaign Focuses On Dollars And Cents

[soulfocus1]

I was under the impression that Senator Clinton was the one who needed money to pay off her campaign debts. While I am sure that Barack Obama will welcome the funds that Senator Clinton can help to generate for his campaign, he has done a remarkable job of raising funds without her. I, for one, have contributed to his campaign four times since January. These were small amounts each time, but as someone who has never contributed to a political candidacy before, I can testify to Senator Obama''s ability to garner support from people who are inspired by his new brand of politics. I am not surprised that his donations experienced a slump in May, given that the task of securing the nomination had been achieved. I am equally sure that once he takes John McCain on in the general election (following the conventions) you will see those numbers spike again, whether Senator Clinton is involved or not. By the way, I am an over-sixty white female who chose to put my support behind the person, not the gender or the race of that person.

Ok, I don''t get it. Obama needs financial support from Clinton (or her supporters)? ABC news (Jake Tapper) has an article saying that they are close to an agreement where Obama will "help retire her more than 10 million in debt." A CNN "Commentary" by Leslie Sanchez says that he "threatens to outspend McCain by six -- perhaps eight -- to one." Oh, and by the way, Obama did never "broke his pledge." This has been covered ad naseum by the pundits (Olberman, for instance) that he signed a statement that he would try to secure an agreement with the Republican nominee. No pledge. And he would ask McCain to play fair -- something I have seen no evidence of in recent days. Moveon.org has now shut down its 527. We are finally getting somewhere and don''t need journalism that might sway some voters to impede the progress!

In Barack''s words, "Get over it."

Yeah, I think that is a great way for Obama to re-introduce himself. Much more in keeping with the real Barack.

I hope this person gets a clue. You don''t get the chance to hit the reset button in politics. You insisted on this baggage, so you now get the opportunity to carry it.

OBAMA.....ALL THE WAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[jack3213]

"Change" does not mean going backwards,( the 1970''''s) or raising taxes, or being inexperianced, or making a showcase out of an unqualified candidate. Anything to do with Clinton is a fraud.Racism in the primariy started with Clinton. Doesn''t anyone have a memory anymore?!

HUH? What? Here she comes 22 million in debt and you are saying she is bringing us money? She is going to introduce Obama to her fundraisers? What kind of fancy image management is this? Little Obama donors are going to pay half her debts and the other half came out of her own pocket so far worth about 109 million. This has got to be the most crazy thing so far. I am sure it will have a good outcome but let us remember that the little Obama donors have invested in transparency and truth. If things get too murky, we''ll have to turn out tee shirts inside out.

He doesn''t deserve her help. She should be above helping a person that is Anti American, anti-white. He is repulsive, will say anything and then flip flop and say he didn''t say it, a very poor choice for Pres. This dem will vote for McCain if BO is the candidate. I dont like he either but I do know he is pro-America and all it''s people.
