The Clinton camp (Bill, Hilliary, everybody who supported them in the primaries) have a choice - either help elect Obama or elect McCain. In the former, they would play a vital role in the Obama administration. In the latter, they would play no role in the McCain administration. No power in the latter. The Clintons do not really have real clout period.

As to the debt - about $12M of the approx $24M is a loan from Hilliary. The rest can be paid off from Bill''s funds or over a period of time from book sales, speaking engagements and/or rich friends.
Obama has no obligation to pay her debts.

I just love how the media manages to stir up trouble when there is none. Mention the Clintons and the slavering mangy O dogs come out in full force. Clinton better get her supporters in line or her career is over, her supporters who don%u2019t like Obama are racist. The negative remarks just go on and on. I doubt there will be any MAJOR problem at the DNC unless they prevent the role call vote from taking place. Everyone knows Obama will get the official nomination but tradition should not be changed because the race was close. The floor vote has been done at the convention for the past 124 years. If they try to change the rules by excluding her in nomination, and the role call, I have no doubt all he// will break lose.
Hillary should speak on Tues. it is the 88 anniversary of women%u2019s right to vote. No women has come closer to winning the nomination. Regardless of what some of you Obama supporters think, there are still many people who like the Clintons. In your words,%u201CGet Over it.%u201D If Obama loses in Nov it%u2019s his own fault. His poll numbers are slipping because the Repubs have found his Achilles heel. He can come across as arrogant and they are using his cult like following and inability to take criticism against him. They have won in the past by zeroing in on the other candidates weakness. He may be able to stop this downward spiral but not with self-righteous indignation. If I vote for Obama it will be in spite of his supporters, not because of them.

truly convince all her supporters to vote for Mr. Obama, then no Obama supporter will EVER support Hillary again, for anything.

That is the price she will pay.

She''''ll be stuck running as an Independent in any future races, along with losers like Joe Lieberman.

"If there is any way she can get the nomination she will find it."

Yeah, even if Obama has to be Vince-Fostered.

The Clintons are felons. No more Clinton scum in the White House. Never again.

With all due respect, if a black man were to win the Presidency, whites would lose all control of the USA.

Are you ready for that?

As a white person all I can say is that the way the "whites" have totally screwed things up, they deserve to be booted out.

That aside, I think your post is pure 100% neo-nazi racist fear-mongering.

I second that. Sadly, a lot of Americans are ignorant and bigoted wastes. Then, they turn right around and call themselves "Christians."

Why should Hillary back Obama if she doesn''t believe he is good for this country? Would that not make her a hypocrit?

I really am sick of the clinton''s, poor sports, bad losers. Maybe now that their campaign memo''s and strategies are going to be posted and made public, they''ll be seen for what dirty politicians they really are! Anything to win, anything for their ego''s!

If Hillary doesn''t put her failed candidacy to bed once and for all, and truly convince all her supporters to vote for Mr. Obama, then no Obama supporter will EVER support Hillary again, for anything.
