About to enter the final two weeks before the crucial Pennsylvania Democratic primary on April 22, Sen. Hillary Clinton stops by to chat with Ellen DeGeneres again today because she wants to reach one of her strongest group of voters, older women.

Actually, they don't really talk today. They taped it last week. So we know a little about the discussion. Ellen says she knows how strong Hillary is, but how hard it must be to hear all this talk about how she should give up, get out and quit the race for the Democratic presidential nomination because she's behind.

And Hillary says: "You know, boys used to say that to me all the time.

"And I figured I know this contest is close. I don't think either one of us should get out. We should let people vote. There are a lot of states that haven't voted yet. They deserve a chance to have their votes counted, and I just feel like I'm doing this for myself, obviously because I believe so much in what our country can be again once we finally get through with President Bush and get back to being the America we know and love."

And Ellen asks her about the rights of gay couples. And the New York senator says she's going to do "everything I can" to ensure equality.

"I like it. I like it," Ellen replies.

And they also talk about how Clinton is supposed to be some kind of cousin to Madonna, who is not a candidate for the Democratic nomination. But Clinton doesn't answer. She wants to know how Ellen got ahold of an old photo.

Also, a little broadcast bird says that on the show Clinton decides to go bowling with Ellen, which may have something to do with how badly her competitor, Barack Obama, bowled at an impromptu session the other day. He scored 37.

However, we understand that Clinton also throws a fair number of gutter balls. But maybe they'll edit that part out.

Way to go Ellen! Watch this blog fill up with hateful stuff from the Obama folks. Watch 'em put stuff about Bill, etc..
The Obama supporters relentlessly race-bait anyone who disagrees with them even SLIGHTLY.
And, apparently being sexist is the last allowable habit of stupid people (male and female in America. But the smart people are now fighting back. Watch Geraldine Ferraro expose Randi Rhodes for the pea-brained person she really is:

Why wouldn’t the other media outlets run this? Well, Fox knows there’s very little risk of Hilary winning anyway, so why not? But the other mainstream media outlets do not want to get caught doing anything to help THE ONE CANDIDATE WHO CAN STILL BEAT JOHN MCCAIN—AND THAT’S HILARY. Note who’s posting it—Tennessee Guerilla Women. News Flash—Hilary TOOK the mid-South, and you need that to win in the fall campaign. Barack’s fake wins in Iowa and elsewhere (republicans cross over, bosses intimidate caucus employees, stuffed ballot boxes in Minnesota), EVEN WHILE OBAMA REFUSES TO STEP IN AND SAY THE DEMS WILL REVOTE MICHIGAN AND FLORIDA!
Now, watch the Obama campaign trolls call me racist for saying so.
Unbelievable!


Nah Nah Nah blog folks--don't go back to voting. WHERE ARE THE OBAMA AND ROBINSON TAX RETURNS FOR THE PAST THIRTY YEARS? WHY IS THE MEDIA IGNORING SUCH DIFFERENT BEHAVIOR?


Geraldinetoo, I'm neither an Obama or Clinton supporter. I really have no vested interest in who wins between the two until the general election. I'm curious as to one thing in your post, though. You say, "The Obama supporters relentlessly race-bait anyone who disagrees with them even SLIGHTLY", yet Hillary Clintion says, "You know, boys used to say that to me all the time." She's just as guilty about pandering to women on the sexist front as you proclaim Obama to be on race. Enough.....we know you're a "woman" Hillary. It's not necessary to remind us every five seconds just as it isn't necessary for Obama to remind us he's black. Although, with that butch haircut and pant suits it's understandable how Hillary could be mistaken for a man!


I started this rumor that when Barack was 8 years old, he and his friends were sitting on the back porch one summer spitting seeds. I think the MSM should report this rumor since everything else they report comes from similar sources. This action clearly brings his social skills into question.


cirpos, what are you talking about "butch haircut"? I guess if you hair isn't halfway down your back you are butch. I would guess you are a gay basher as well. Boy or are you really a boy, maybe you just havn't come out of the closet as yet. You need to get with the times.


Hillary and Ellen: The Pantssuit Summit.


NOW if you don't like the Gay look, you are evil. What's wrong with long hair? Bible says its a woman's glory? But ONLY feminists and Gays have opinions and can be right??? Look, Hillary has so many issues, its ridiculous. OBAMA never said anything about being black - he ran as a candidate and DOMINATED Clinton. So she started crying, and then made him the "black candidate". The man had to flex his skills and dismiss all that foolishness with the speech of the ages. This is not about black, white, male or female, its about AMERICA which is ALL of those things. And one candidate trully understands and is running with dignity. He is getting the sink thrown at him - when it would be easy to retaliate. CLINTONS - INSULTED all of the blacks in the country - then when they didnt vote for her, she claimed "they are supporting their candidate - so I am asking you to support YOUR candidate". Was an evil - selfish thing to do. Her character is on display, and I challenge AMERICA to reward her with what she trully deserves....NOTHING. 109 million dollars, and lying like a rug. Now does that sound like ROCKY Balboa???


Who do you suppose got to wear the Doc Johnson's FIRST? Hee hee.


Well, my first post smoked out some really well documented information about the Rove plan to get Republicans to vote Obama up.
Here's the link we've all been waiting for:

by the way, I'll vote for whomever is at the top of the ticket in the Fall, I just don't see why Obama trashed John Edwards' chances, Dennis Kucinich's chances, and now seems hell bent for leather to trash Hilary's chances.

DUDE! you RULE!


Note who’s posting it—Tennessee Guerilla Women

That's because in the hills of Tennessee Y'all LOOK like Gorillas.



Yay, Ellen, for sticking by the RIGHT candidate.

I agree with geraldinetoo -- Barack is where he is in part due to his race, and his Spin Machine attacks anyone who doesn't agree with his every word.

Go Hillary, and thank you Ellen!


Finally we see the real reason Hillary is running: "I'm doing this for myself, obviously"

Couldn't of said it better myself! Stop thinking of yourself and think of America first. Make a pledge of 65% or better in PA or your out. Without that you cannot win.


There she goes playing the gender card -- "You know, boys used to say that to me all the time." Yuk! And there they go -- bowling -- Hillary just has to copy Obama as usual! UGGHH!! Couldn't they have played softball or something instead of 'bowling'? Give me a break.


Geralinetoo, your not a racist, just ignorant. If you are voting for a candidate at least spell their name correctly: HILLARY, 2 L's. Also, why are all Obama's wins fake and Hillary's are real? He won twice as many as her. More popular vote too. He won MO, that is mid-south last time I looked, Also South Carolina. Obama also won Texas, more delegates, she got the primary vote, barely, he won the caucus and big, urban, educated areas, so he took more delegates from TX than she did. Also, every pol shows him beating McCain, polls with Hillary are mixed. Yes Republicans are voting for Obama like Democrats voted for Reagan. Open minded people can vote for the better candidate.


@geraldinetoo -- Why shouldnt obama trash Hillary's chances? Why is so special of all? Just because she couldnt handle her own husband in her own house, does that mean she can handle the country better?


"So?" as VP Dick Cheney is
fond to say, Barack Obama
Bowls like a ninny! And acts
like another smirking totally
arrogant lying pompus arse!

I bet Hillary Clinton can out

I’m all for equality, but I’ve never heard of anyone being denied healthcare, because of either his or her inability to pay (as Hillary put forth last week), or for being gay. A leopard never changes her spots. That being said, I go back to this story. As you may know, Jerry Zeifman fired Hillary for unethical practices during the Watergate Investigation. Why was Hillary fired? “Because she was a liar,” Zeifman said in a recent interview. “She was an unethical, dishonest lawyer. She conspired to violate the Constitution, the rules of the House, the rules of the committee and the rules of confidentiality.”

Mr. Zeifman’s story is important. Not only does it go to character, it goes to a lifelong pattern of lying and obfuscation. And, it took Zeifman twelve years to get it aired. After Watergate, Zeifman could not recommend Hillary for any subsequent position of public or private trust, nor furnish her with a letter of recommendation. Again, Hillary Clinton is a bold-faced liar, who will stop at nothing. Should anyone doubt Mr. Zeifman's veracity regarding the Clintons: http://theseedsof9-11.com

The Clintons corrupted the soul of the Democratic Party. -Henry Ruth, lead Watergate courtroom prosecutor.


Oh Thank God finally we see a
"Hillary Bowls" and a bonus,
"Hillary and Ellen Go Bowling"
Story after all those endless
"Obama Bowls" or those
"Obama Drinks Beer With
Factory Workers" stories!
You Go Hilliary! Clinton in 08!


Hillary Clinton should NOT be the nominee in any country, state or local. She has shown herself to be a pathological liar. And, then goes on "talk" show to pretend to joke about it. She has serious issues. The Mark Penn debacle... he's still working in her campaign. Did she "reject and denounce" what he did? Even though she says that he was demoted. You can't keep "slicing and dicing" and still try to make it whole!

People please educate yourselves to what the Clintons are doing: divisive politics that will never heal the country... lt's the 21st Century! Let's UNITE!
