Sen. Barack Obama's presidential campaign rejected suggestions Sunday that Sen. Hillary Clinton is staying in the race in hopes of brokering some kind of agreement with the likely Democratic nominee.
"I don't believe that Sen. Clinton is looking for a deal," Obama's chief campaign strategist, David Axelrod, told "Fox News Sunday," when asked about suggestions she may want the Obama campaign's help retiring her campaign debt.
"I don't think that's what this is about," he said.
Last week, Obama sparked rumors that his campaign would pay off Clinton's campaign debts once he secured the nomination.
"I'd want to have a broad range of discussions with Sen. Clinton about how I could make her feel good about the process and have her on the team moving forward," Obama told reporters Friday.
Axelrod on Sunday called the discussion "premature," and said he believes Clinton "will have the capacity to retire her debt."
Axelrod said Clinton has "competed hard" and is "playing it out as she sees fit. I don't think she's waiting for a cue or a signal from us or an offer of financial assistance. And I think that would demean her to suggest otherwise."
He added, "I don't think even under any scenario ... that we were going to transfer money from the Obama campaign to the Clinton campaign. We obviously need the resources we have. We have a great task ahead of us." He said he believes "there was a misunderstanding out there about that."
Axelrod said he believes Clinton "will have the capacity to retire her debt."
He also denied rumors that the Clinton camp may be in some kind of discussions with the Obama camp to make her his running mate. "There's been no discussion about vice presidential nominees and this whole scenario," Axelrod said.

“I’d want to have a broad range of discussions with Sen. Clinton about how I could make her feel good....

Wow - there’s a disgusting thought.
.
Yes - That’s a strangely worded phrase too
Barack Hussy Obama Junior seems to to make many rather queer comments like that
William “Ol’ Bomber” Ayers wrote in one of his books that he himself was a practicing homosexual in his “Weatherman” & “Coke” days

“All kinds of people were just waiting for him to declare a national emergency an then take over as dictator”
The executive orders written during Bill’s term were in preparation for Hillary’s Presidency. Bill is Hillary’s hack. Bill was used as the charming one to win people over. Hillary by herself, without all of the charm school training, that she has been taking to make herself appear more mainstream, is really a scary looking sociopath. It has always been about HER!!!! Hillary, in her natural state of being, scares the living hell out of the typical voter.
“Teddy said publicly no VP slot for Hillary....b/c she doesn’t live up to the “higher aspirations” of the Dem Party (whatever that is).”
I think Ted might be an old fashioned liberal, meaning he means no ill-will to the United States. He is just a tax and spender. He still loves his country, unlike the Clintons, who take campaign contributions from terrorists and the Communist Chinese. There is a good reason why the terrorists and Chinese have a vested interested in Hillary. She is no Ted Kennedy, no, she is something much worse. I saw John Kennedy Jr. in an interview just before he died in the plane crash, and it sounded like he wasn’t happy with the direction the Democratic Party was going in under the Clinton leadership. I hope Ted helps to do in the Clinton aspirations. I think his nephew paid a terrible price for the ambitions of the Clinton Mob-family.
Very cute devolve, too bad they didn’t run over him, lol.
