Let's do a little comparison here:
Senator Obama's combined adjusted gross income for 2007 was: $4,139,965.00
Senator Clinton's combined adjusted gross income for 2007 was: $109,200,000.00 est.
The Clintons' estimated 2007 total income includes, among other items:
Senator Clinton's salary $150,200
Senator Clinton's book royalties $152,864
President Clinton's pension $186,600
President Clinton's book income $4,434,446
President Clinton's speeches $10,145,000
Partnership income $2,750,000
Advisor income from InfoUSA $400,000
Income from savings accounts $485,000
Investment income from Blind Trust $3,515,000
(The partnership, speeches and investment income above are estimated figures)
Looks like they are still waiting to receive information related to partnership
income, including investments made by the Trustees of their Blind Trust. The Blind
Trust was unblinded on April 27, 2007 and the assets, with the exception of U.S. treasury
notes and federal bonds, were sold on May 11, 2007. The tax information in this release
is based upon the best estimates of the Clintons' tax attorney.

And someone else going to pay off her campaign debt?? That is total arrogancy!!
I'm a little peeved that Senator Obama would even suggest to his big money backers they help Senator Clinton erase her $10 million debt. How nice of her not to add the money she loaned her campaign.
There's a reason former Pres. Clinton hasn't stepped forward to endorse Senator Obama, instead sending a surrogate to do his talking. He's ticked....really ticked that his wife lost. He had that taste of "elitism" on the tip of his tongue stepping onto the lawn at the WH----then poof!
Now Pres. Clinton wants a private meeting with Senator Obama so he can air his grievances towards him. Seems that Bill is "miffed" that Senator Obama portrayed him as a racist and also ran a campaign of nothing but negatives against his wife. Hey Kettle!!!...meet pot!!!
I hope Pres. Clinton doesn't mind me borrowing his phrase but...."GIVE ME A BREAK!!"
Here Senator Obama is pushing to help her erase her deb and then she knew full well the 'math' was not there to win the nomination--yet continued to "fight" until the end. Fight what?? Your creditors?? You reap what you sow people.
General Wesley Clark said it was "just a normal process" for Senator Obama to offer to pay off her debt. What happened to the message of "change?" I don't want things to be "normal", that's why I WAS voting for Senator Obama as a registered Independent. Now I have my doubts.
I don't think I can handle another "news" (and I use that loosely) day containing the Clinton name. They lost didn't they?
Blackmail is against the law Senator Obama.
