That's it. I'm no longer giving money to Obama's campaign. I will vote for him, of course. But I feel he's betrayed the trust of his small donors who scraped and saved to donate to him. They didn't do that to repay a couple of multi-millionaires interest on their loans and a scuzzbucket like Mark Penn $4 million a month for his crappy advice. Most of that debt was racked up trying to destroy him after it was mathematically impossible for her to win.

I'm very angry about this. :mad:

Speaking with reporters, he's even hinting that he might help Hillary Rodham Clinton retire her multimillion-dollar campaign debt.

But on the money issue, Obama says once a campaign is over, helping a strong opponent retire their debt can help unify the party. He says "you want to make sure that you're putting that opponent in a strong position" so they can work to win the November election.
