"Is it me or do others also see so much of what Hillary does seems like a page right out of the Obama playbook only mangled in its execution?"

==================
How true! When Hillary revised her website, I was shaking my head in amazement. The colors are more similar to Obama's. And guess what? Hillary's revamped website has an intro page not unlike Obama's with her picture on itt (Obama ha a family pic) asking peoplee to sign up or skip to the site. She didn't have anything like that before.

She is one devious cunning lady and very bold with her lies.

She gets her aides to distribute Obama's picture, then turn around and accuse Obama of divisiveness.

She accuses Obama of plagiarism and at then end the same debate with words lifted from John Edwards and her husband.

And what's this about 'not letting Obama's war chest' let him win the election. Of course it is. If Obama is is no good, then money won't come in. So him having a bigger war chest means he's getting bigger support.

Clinton had a bigger one but now she is in debt. Oh yeah, and loaning money to her campaign with interest higher than she's getting from the bank. Riiight.

Hillary lost me years ago, when she took her cheating husband back. I know she wants only to do good for the American people, but I just don't respect her.

Keith, life is a funny thing. It so darn easy for you or me to judge Hillary in this matter, but anyone who lived a bit knows how hard it is to break up a family. I know because I've walked down this road and I wish it on no man or woman ever. You never quite get over something like this, believe me.

I love Ellen! But I stand by Obama 100%!!!!

As I see it

Two very intelligent people now about to do something silly. McCain is going to win I can see that. Bring your troops home

ANYONE, absolutely ANYONE but obama 08

Every great nation falls...just look at history. If obama gets that far then it WILL be the fall of this great nation. Look at who is backing him financially, look at who is supporting him. Farrakahn???? Why would such a radical support obama??? maybe because he sees that he can manipulate him to his advantage or he holds the same values and beliefs??? Wake up America you are being duped!!!!!

Hillary is now attempting, as did Tina Fey on Saturday to use gender as the reason why she has bee challenged during the campaign. I KNOW it couldn't be that she has NOT managed her campaign well "w/35 years of experience", ( my God, if I hear that prhase once more...)OR had a consistent message, OR didn't use the RACE ( her husband and Bob Johnson's strong performances in South Carolina); OR DRUGS ( her Iowa surrogate's remarks); and of course Obama's odd-sounding Islamic type name and "questionable" ties to those "swarthy" Islamic- types ( remember the e-mails as well as the Clinton staffer in Iowa who was canned for the e-mails,etc)
It's so tough out there for a wealthy White woman to succeed as it compares with a black man with a "funny" sounding name." I mean Obama has lived such a charmed life with no hardship. Of course if she doesn't succeed it's everyone elses fault not her own!! I feel so sorry for Hillary; she's being so mistreated! Black people get all the breaks!! HILLARY STOP WHINING AND BE YOU; whoever that is this week!

Wake up America. As a citizen of this world, and America being a great super power, I can count on, I feel like the outcome of this election is affecting me personally. Why can't you, the people of America, see beyond the inspiring speeches? Anybody with a little talent can write inspiring speeches, but that does not qualify just anybody to be the next President. What if his speeches are meant to be inspiring but also deceiving? Maybe people are "delusional", just to use Obama's words. And he knows, with the help of others, how to create that delusion.
About being partriot I am not sure about that, after his wife's speech.

Chip, you don't have to be a man to be a sexist. I have had some women tell me that they would never vote for a woman president. That would make them sexists. Experience is being around a seasoned politician, helping him or her run campaigns and passing legislation. How soon we forget that Hillary attempted to pass Universal Healthcare in the 90's. That's experience. As to your comment about knowing which fork to use at dinner, real classy. You're no sexist at all.

Hillary will simply do the BEST JOB as PRESIDENT!

She is clearly the best choice; if you want the job done right, I mean, correct.

Rather than be a presenter at the Oscars Samuel L. Jackson spent his time in three East Texas towns campaigning for OBAMA.

Small towns that didn't get him national attention. He wasn't going for the glory, he was going for the votes.

I am so glad to see Ellen supporting Hillary. It's so good to see that at least some people that are "celebrities" are supporting her. From this article Ellen at least was able to make Hillary happy for a few minutes anyways considering she has had a miserable time this ENTIRE election with everyone hating on her. Frankly it makes me want to cry FOR HER reading how people feel about her and all the sexist comments and such people are saying about her(and women in general). Also I grew up in politics myself and know that politicians DON'T LIE ALL THE TIME and honestly believe Hillary doesn't lie ALL THE TIME, but does exaggerate the truth at times(which don't we all at one time or another?).

Before all you Obama people start saying things I am a junior in college and have an Associate's degree(as in YES I am educated). I just wanted to point that out b/c I am sure some of you will say I am not educated if I had not mentioned it here.

Let's see: The Republican right wing has hated her for years; CNN, MSNBC, and FOX have continually given her negative coverage, while elevating their chosen one; some white men are afraid of a woman for president; but, she is the most intelligent, experienced,and capable candidate running. Ellen, I believe your observations are right on target! Thank you for cutting through all the negatives and showing such clarity--always with your compelling sense of humor!

Oh yea, I will NEVER vote for Obama. If Obama is the nominee I will DEFINITELY be voting within my party(REPUBLICAN), but if Hillary is the nominee I will be crossing party lines to vote for her. My mother and grandmother will be doing the same thing. By the way I live in NY and am really glad to have Hillary as my Senator.

Kudos, Ellen! Thank you for being brave and standing up for Hillary. It is funny that the other candidate gets national media attention even when a nobody endorses him, but national heros like John Glenn, strong women like Ellen and Toni Morrison endorsements of Hillary get only online coverage or a blurb here or there. Go Hillary! Strong women everywhere are supporting the cause regardless of the unfair treatment by the media! HILLARY 2008!

I am glad one of the above bloggers pointed out that you don't have to be a man to be a sexist.

It is disgusting to see some of these female commentators on cable stations like MSNBC slam Hillary so they can continue to appear on shows like Chris Matthews.

This campaign cycle has been sexism from beginning to end and I am not at all surprised to see what is happening. And I believe Oprah is a traitor as well.

Why did the media yesterday ignore all teh high ranking military officiasl who endorsed Hillary?

But today a big deal about Chris Dodd endorsement of Obama?

The media doesn't want us to know the military supports a woman as commander in chief.

How obvious.

To Georgia, who thinks white men are afraid of a woman as president.....
If Condi Rice were running, do you think the "right wing" would hate her as well?? They would support her with open arms. They have hated Hillery because she was, well, Hillery--not the woman. And everything that the Obamamaniacs are throwing at her are finally being taken seriously by the Left, who for years thought everything negative about the Clintons was done as part of the 'Great Right-Wing Conspiracy". At least some Democrates are finally noticing that at some point they had to stop blaming Halliburton, Bush, Cheney, et al....
This run-up to the next election is going to be lots of fun for political junkies!!

I am a Democrat and I turn 66 on my next birthday in April. Having carefully watched the tactics of Barack Obama in this campaign, and having realized that so many Rebublicans are turning out in droves to vote for him in the primaries, I can plainly see that Obama is encouraging the Republicans to over-ride the votes of Democrats.

I will write in Hillary's name or stay home on election day in November and I am encouraging every Democrat I know to do the same.

Obama is a disaster waiting to happen. I can't say I won't get satisfaction watching him go down. He's the most vain and pompous man to ever enter politics. Democrats everywhere should be outraged.
