Obama asks contributors to help Clinton with debt---
Sen. Barack Obama has asked top contributors to help his former rival for the Democratic presidential nomination, Sen. Hillary Clinton, retire her debt, an Obama campaign source said Tuesday.
Obama did not direct members of his National Finance Committee to contribute to Clinton's campaign, the source said, but asked them to do so if they were so inclined.
Clinton suspended her campaign and endorsed Obama for the Democratic presidential nomination this month.
This is nothing but bad. George Carlin looks more correct everyday. The people are supposed to fund Hillary's losing effort even though to this day she hasn't STOPPED her campaign, but merely suspended it? Additionally, she ran up millions in debt and Obama suggests that somehow people should rally and pay up?
If that's not a "pay up sucker", I don't know what is. Sorry Mr. Obama, Mrs. Rodham ran herself into debt and it's not the fault of people that supported her or support you.
I guess we know the game now. Rodham merely suspended her campaign for some sort of leverage. Obama is countering with you are going to buckle under and be a useless VP or you are going to have alot of debt. Now he's taking a flyer on the people coughing up money. If that doesn't work Obama can graciously publicly cover her debt as she graciously accepts the useless VP job. (useless from a power standpoint)
