Out in Politics: March 2008 Archives

The conversation is good, but the real highlight is the dancing...

Enjoy!

Twelve wins in a row for Barack Obama was pretty depressing for supporters of Sen. Hillary Clinton's presidential campaign. But she stemmed the tide in a BIG way tonight with crucial wins in Ohio and Texas (and let's not forget Rhode Island!). She's shown some real fight and the closeness of this race is giving us an unprecedented opportunity to examine our potential presidential nominees.

Here is part of what Clinton said to supporters in Ohio tonight: "For everyone here in Ohio and across America, who's ever been counted out but refused to be knocked out and for everyone who has stumbled but stood right back up, and for everyone who works hard and never gives up, this one is for you!"

Last Friday evening, a video endorsement of Hillary Clinton by Jack Nicholson entitled "Jack and Hill" was posted to YouTube, and quickly went viral. As of Monday morning, the video has been viewed over 1,151,000 times.Towleroad.com reports that the video was conceived and created by two gay filmmakers, screenwriter/director John Krokidas and producer Bruce Cohen ("American Beauty," "Pushing Daisies," and the currently in production Harvey Milk biopic "Milk").

Meanwhile, Hillary made a hilarious appearance in the opening "Saturday Night Live" sketch appearing alongside Amy Poeler who has been spoofing her in recent weeks. Said Sen. Clinton: "I would like to take this opportunity to say to all Americans, be they from the great state of Ohio or Texas, Rhode Island or Vermont, Pennsylvania or any of the other states, live from New York it is Saturday night!"
