Question - should Clinton drop out & Obama asks for donations
to help retire her debt, would you donate to help retire her debt? Or would you send money to the Obama campaign to help ensure that McCain is trounced and/or to local Dem candidates?
I will probably send the bulk of my donations to local Dems and a bit to the Obama GE campaign.

1. If Hillary believes so strongly in Hillary that she lent the campaing money
and then campaigned so badly, it is not up to Obama supporters to deny her some hard earned lessons in life and reality.

2. Hillary's debt is not my problem.
Let the $110 million dollar lady figure out how to pay the debt she incurred.

3. She dug her own hole
I will donate to Americans who need money! How about she set up a place for people to donate to help out the people losing their homes!

4. I'd consider it
Probably not right away, but if she puts a lot of time and effort into campaigning for him I'd consider it.

5. I believe by law she only has til the convention
to pay back the loan to herself. As for credit from merchants I believe that can be paid anytime.

7. But she can campaign for him between June and the convention
And if she does that I'd consider making a contribution. Or after the convention, since I'd rather my donation go to pay back the vendors anyway.
