Good! Marginalized and pauperized... I wonder how much pull the ‘toons will have once they are finally cast aside.

Maybe her campaign would be well served to pay their debts.
They still owe for rents and even sandwiches.

Hillary will stay in the race just to raise enough money to pay off her debt. I bet that this loan will be repaid in short order. It could also be a gimmick to shore up her support showing that she is still committed to staying in the race, especially after yesterday. Stick a fork in her, she is done.

You have to wonder what promises they made and to who when it looked like Hil was headed for a coronation.

There’s gonna be lots of folks, here and overseas, that are ticked their “investment” screwed up so badly.

She is toast, but doesn’t want to admit it to herself. Raving psycho woman, she is.

Dean & his cronies will give her a few days to see if reality sinks in, but it won’t with her thighness. On Friday, the democrat party bigwigs: Dean, Reid, Pelosi, etc..., will all call for her to throw in the towel. The MSM has already been tipped and are writing the scripts for the Sunday morning arguing heads shows. All of them will be calling on her to bow out now and unify the party.

Can’t you just see the Clinton and Romney families in a candidates-who-spend-their-family-fortune support group after the primary season? In Clinton’s case any intervention would have to be approached gingerly, to say the least.

Then again if Bill and Hill figure their first presidency to have been worth roughly $1B, they can certainly justify spending tens of millions on the prospects of another such windfall.

She will continue to wreak "chaos" and suck the life out of the DEMONcrat party, dragging it down with her and hopefully destroy it. Because it's ALL about her and her evil plans. Keep going beast.

The wonderful thing about this is that Mrs. Clinton is using tens of millions of her own dollars to continue Operation Chaos. She’s not going to win the nomination, but she sure is weakening the eventual nominee - Snob-ama.

I never thought I’d say this, but thank you, Hillary!

The only people sowing doubt that Clinton was not going to stay in were the Fauxbama camp and the press to build up tensions to sell more papers.

HillBilly is GOING NOWHERE... She’s going to the convention, and if she loses there, she’ll fall back to the NY Governorship and return in 12. She knows like everyone else, Fauxbama cannot win a general election, and if she can’t get the nomination, she must do everything she can to make sure its McCain so she can go back to NY for a few years bide her time and leverage her “near victory” to run vitually unopposed as the democratic nominee in 2012.

This woman is going to the convention, and if she doesn’t walk out as the nominee, she’ll make damned sure that there is no way Fauxbama can win (not that that requires much effort), and be back next time.

I said this once Obama became a threat to Hillary.

She will rather be known as someone that lost in the primary to “failed Democrat nominee” Barrack Obama rather than President Obama. She may not win the nomination in the end, but she is going to take the ship down with her. IF he wins the Presidency, the history books will write more about his defeat of Hillary rather than McCain because he is already viewed by some as a winner in that race, so it would not be a shocker. Obama beating Hillary was not supposed to happen. You can take it to the bank Hillary doesn't want the history books to write that about her.

Exactly. It was the same as Kerry getting a second mortgage on his house to fund his campaign. It is a symbolic gesture to demonstrate to her followers that she is committed to staying the course.

I find the irony of Hillary being robbed of her destiny to be something special to be given much thought in the future. How could the stars that were so seemingly aligned, get so skewed?

So that makes Rush always wrong. I did not agree with Rush back in 2000 about Hillary. I agree with him now. I was right then and I’m right now.

Not sure about 8:59, but after 60, "3:00 EM" means 3 o'clock Every Morning.

If you know what I mean.

BTW. Did you know that to determine a man's age you multiply his height by the number of times he goes to the bathroom per day?

Good. The longer she stays in, the better. It’s not like the she’s gonna go broke over it. Bubba’s still making money from Dubai, for one thing, and the American people are perfectly willing to ignore it while robotically repeating dark rumors about “Bush’s oil buddies”.

Excellent! I want her to stay in, now that it looks like she can’t possibly get the nomination. Or is the money just to pay her campaign debts and clean things up before she bails? Or maybe it’s a ploy to up her price for throwing her support to the Dali Bama.

Yup, you got it here on the head. She will stay in the race and suck money out of the poor losers who think she can win somehow.

And then she will take her money and leave. Grifter is as grifter does.

She should stay in the race no matter what happens from here on out. She won Michigan and Florida and they can't take that away. She should make the Super Delegates make their decision about whether they want an unelectable anti-American fool or a has-been never-been who believes she is the Queen of America by blood.

Excellent question. She lied.

That is likely limited by regulation. Romney also made loans to his campaign and there’s nothing wrong with that. The proof in the pudding is how the accounting is done to get tax deductions.

It is likely Romney will declare it an unrepaid loan expense so that his taxes on the income from the rest of his fortune are reduced by that deduction. But it is not clear she can cover that. She may not earn enough income to get taxed enough to have that deduction be meaningful.

In which case . . . tax loss carryforward will mean she will never pay any taxes the rest of her life.

I think we all are forgetting that the "Pledged Delegates" are only required to vote their "Pledge" on the first round of votes during the convention. If Obama does not make the total needed for nomination in the first vote then everything is up for grabs in the subsequent voting!

Then The Real Fun Begins!

That is why Hillary is still running!
