1. I hope the RW dingbat will still be out on maternity leave.

7. Why, too much for Ms. Obama?

[tanyev]

24. I'm sure Ms. Obama can handle her just fine.

I cannot.

10. She won't be back 'til Jan. n/t

2. Wouldn't it be great if Oprah made a guest appearance?

I'm sure Oprah giving her some pointers.

3. Elisabeth Hasselbeck will definitly call in sick that day...

8. FYI....

Yesterday Barbara received an email from Elizabeth. She received such a nice card from Hillary that she is considering changing her vote.

4. Oh gee. Is that OK

When President Clinton goes out on the campaign trail there's nothing but bashing here. But I forgot...she is the Saint's wife....

5. I hope...

she doesn't put her foot in her mouth, like the last time she spoke on TV....

[MNDemNY]

6. She may swallow it.

9. Maybe she will tell us again just how stupid she

thinks black folks are by not supporting Barack.

More I see of her I conjure up Sherry Palmer.

11. She didn't say that...

she was asked about her opinion of people like an older Black woman the interviewer (Mika Brzezinski) spoke with who said she LIKES Obama and thinks he's a very smart guy, but she doesn't think she'll vote for him because she doesn't think a Black person could win. THOSE are the people she's talking to/about...don't be afraid to vote for him if you think he's the best choice because you don't think a Black person can't win.

[1corona4u]

12. No, she said...

"WASHINGTON -- With polls showing African Americans yet to give overwhelming support to White House hopeful Sen. Barack Obama (D-Ill.), his wife, Michelle, said "black America will wake up and get it" in an interview with MSNBC.

Now if that was being addressed to me, I'd go the other way...

[NYCGirl]

13. And jenmito in her post above told you what the "It" is addressed in that quote. NT

[jenmito]

15. Thanks, NYCGirl...

I just tried explaining it again. :hi:

[jenmito]

14. And that was in response to the reporter asking her how she feels about

an elderly Black woman who said she likes Obama and would LIKE to vote for him but she's AFRAID that a Black person can't win so she probably won't vote for him. THAT'S when she made that reply.

[beaconess]

19. Why don't you include her FULL quote - and not just a sentence fragment?

[1corona4u]

20. I did include the comment I was addressing...

I was not commenting on the rest of her statement. It was irrelevant to me clarifying the point I was talking about. It's on the internet if you, or anyone else need to see the whole thing.

[jenmito]

22. You left out what she was replying to which gives it a whole other meaning...

which must be why you didn't reply to my post to you in response to your post.

[geek tragedy]

23. What a twisted, ugly post. n/t

[Clintonista2]

16. If Bill went on the view, it would be:

"WHY DOES HILLARY NEED BILL TO CAMPAIGN FOR HER?!?!?!?"

[jenmito]

17. You clearly don't watch The View if that's what you think...

they are almost all for Hillary on that show. Today they played clips of her from the last debate where she said she's being attacked because she's winning, blah blah blah.

[Clintonista2]

18. actually that was yesterday's episode

and why are you confusing "not attacking Hillary" with "almost all for Hillary"?

[jenmito]

21. I think it was today's show...

either way, they ARE almost all for Hillary. I watch the show every day and they always compliment Hillary and even criticized Michelle for her comment about Black people and why they're not yet planning on voting for Obama. And then Whoopi, who's clearly not as informed as she should be on their positions, said she wants someone who will be willing to TALK to our enemies. She described Obama right after saying she wants someone who will be specific on issues and not just talk about change. Whoopie, Sherri, Joy, and Barbara all seem to like Hillary.
