God, I truly hate the Clintons. And I hate that son-of-a-***** Rahm Emanuel having anything to do with anything in Washington.

I like Hillary but I fear that she will be the McCain of 2016. Old, out of touch and obsessed with being President willing to sell herself out to get it. She seems to have that "it's my turn" attitude. I hope she doesn't go out like that.

Why bring God into this?? Oh, you must be from the "real" America. It's ok then

Here's the original Politico article linked from Kingdom Obama. Another non issue intended to "stir the pot". The republicans don't like the fact that Hillary supporters backed Obama in the election. Michelle has already called and asked for Hillary's advice on raising children in the White House
Clip:
“I don’t think there’s a whole lot of hard feelings, it’s more like mild annoyance,” said a former Clinton aide on condition of anonymity. “There’s just not a lot of expectation they are going to lift a finger for us.”
An Obama spokesman didn’t comment but didn’t rule out a debt retirement effort down the road.

I've never understood the Hillary wanting Obama to pay her bills thing. Is that a common practice within the dynamics of a party?

Didn't Hillary have something like a quarter-billion dollars' campaign fund at the beginning,and squandered most of it on assumptions of inevitability?
Hey, Mitt Romney paid for a lot of his failure out of pocket. Let Hillary do the same. Damn if I'd send money to Obama for her.

I think there's more of a chance that the GOP is going to split up. The Clinton's are sitting pretty in an Obama adminsitration.

Yes, I understand it is common practice.

I don't know why the Clinton's would start a third party. Hillary's core beliefs are not that indistinguishable from Obama's and I don't think it would to their advantage to destroy the party.

Perhaps she sould take foreign donations, mostly from the Middle East like Obama did. Then I'll bet she could pay off those debts......oh but wait, Clinton was not a terrorist sympathizer, nevermind.

Oh and by the way, if you think the issues regarding Obama's fund raising tactics are a mute issue, think again. I assure you, the sources of his donations WILL be an issue during his first 90 days, or even sooner.
