Clinton & Obama Campaign Together in Unity, NH: Is Hillary Clinton using Barack Obama?
Despite their past rivalry, Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton are campaigning together in Unity, New Hampshire.Obama is now depending on Clinton to persuade her former supporters to shift their loyalty to her new partner. This partnership now has dual purposes, as Clinton needs the help of the Illinois senator to help repay her campaign debt of $10 Million, and Obama needs the support from Clinton's followers to assure his chance for presidency. Obama has already donated $4,600 to Hillary's campaign debt-- $2,300 each from him and his wife-- which is the maximum amount allowed for personal donation.

Talk about two-faced. Hillary takes the cake. She all but talked about him like that relative you don't want anybody to know about. Now she's kissing up to him like they were old lovers. Watch out Barack, next she'll be trying to move in. -

Hilliary wants his help to pay off her debt because her followers have not seen fit to help her pay it off otherwise she would not need his help in this area. I think she would love to be vice president, but it would be a wrong choice for Obama to select her because she would try to undercut his in every move so as to make him unelectable in four years and she could run against him again. He can win without her, as her supporters are more in tune with the values of the democratic party than the republicans, especially on the right to choose. They know that one of the most important issues with the next president will be in selecting new supreme court judges and if McCain is elected then Roe vs Wade will be out the door. -

HC is a snake-in-the-grass; she is still plotting to wrest the nomination from Obama and is trying to manipulate him. What a SHAMEFUL silence on her part! She's kept all of her options open and is STILL PLOTTING against Obama. She's no better than LYING JOHN McCAIN-- worse, in fact, because she's a Democrat. If Obama loses, I will "work my heart out" to see that she NEVER wins if she EVER decides to run.
If Bill or Hilary really wanted to help w/o worrying about being off-message, they could very easily have attacked McCain on his OUTRAGEOUS ATTACKS ON OBAMA w/o having to discuss ANY policy issue. But they sat silent -- an almost UNFORGIVABLY MONUMENTAL error of OMISSION!
HILARY WENT THRU ALL THE MOTIONS, but NEVER made it ABSOLUTELY CLEAR that the nomination process was OVER and that she would fall in line. If, however, she had even ever-so-lightly rebuked some of her supporters who were ferociously attacking Obama or had she even come out against the PUMA group (which is largely, though not totally Republican), she might have redeemed herself. The only reason I can see why she didn't is because she was always manuevering for advantage -- no matter what it might do to the Democratic Party and Democratic shances for the presidency.

I had no problem with donating to ease her debt problem -- even though SHE brought it on herself by continuing LONG AFTER she had no mathematical possibility of winning the nomination according to the rules. She could have been forgiven -- even for the fact that she made anti-black racism "acceptable" again. I could have forgiven her vicious and mean-spirited attacks on Obama -- and even her virtual endorsement of McCain. I could have forgiven her attempted emasculation, her race-baiting and she and her husband's other outrageous acts.
I could STILL forgive both of the Clinton's -- IF THEY IMMEDIATELY STEP UP TO THE PLATE AND DO THE RIGHT THING. But if they keep up this charade, I truly HOPE THAT THEY BURN IN HELL - and suffer IN THE EXTREME for the remainder of their lives on earth.(less) -

This is really a no-brainer. IF Hillary were going to be the VP don't you think we would have already heard this? I do. Anyway of course she wants her debts paid..this is just what they do. If it were the other way around then obama would want the same. Politics. I'm disgusted with the Democratic Party all together! -

Senator Obama should pay her debt reguardless of what she would lıke to do. She was part of the nomınatıon process and ıt wıll show true faıth on hıs part to support the electıon process. I thınk the ball ıs ın hıs court and he needs to step forward and do the rıght thıng.

Hillary is a wealthy woman, she can afford to pay off her
campaign debt. Much of which is actually to herself anyway, since she
loaned millions of dollars of her own money to her campaign. And while
she'd accept the Vice Presidency if it's offered, I don't think she
actually WANTS it that much. She probably has more political power now
as a Senator than she would as VP. The only advantage to being VP is as
a stepping stone to the Presidency, and even that's overrated.
Historically sitting Vice Presidents lose more often than they win if
they run for President. Hillary wants Obama to become President, so
that he'll be in a position to back her in 2016 when she runs again. If
he loses she could try in 2012, but then she'd be trying to unseat an
incumbent. As we saw in 2004 that's difficult even with an unpopular
and incompetent incumbent. -

I don't think Hillary up to doing anything good, for Obama Campaign, She don't need to be VP, I sure Obama can do a find job alone with the right plans for change. Hillary can serve someway else. sorry to say I was disappointed at how she behave when she knew she was behind. She was a bad losser. She misrepresented women in general. -
