Legal Question in Real Estate Law in Florida

I have a debt of $30,000 with my hoa in Florida and I'm attempting a short sale. I'm trying to negotiate with the hoa to pay for part of it, but if they refuse I will have to go to foreclosure.

Can they come after me for unpaid dues after a foreclosure? The Declaration of Condominuim states:

"If any unpaid Share of Common Expenses or Assessments is extinguished by foreclosure of a superior lien or by deed in lieu of foreclosure thereof, the unpaid share of Common Expenses or Assessments are Common Expenses collectible from all unit owners."
