The first time I heard of a group called Chelsea For Obama, I am like, what's going on here? This is trouble. I mean, if Hillary can't even get her daughter excited about her run for the White House, what chance does she stand with the American people?
Ends up there is a neighborhood in Manhattan called Chelsea. What do I know? I hardly know names of many townships in my own borough. I guess that is still bad news for Hillary.
But now there is news Rudy Giuliani has a daughter called Caroline, and she is for Obama. Ouch. "You better like ravioli!"
But don't just blame me. Hillary herself fell for the same when she was in Arkansas. She was First Lady. Chelsea had been born. Her political consultant Dick Morris had flown in from New York with a newspaper in hand. The newspaper was called Chelsea Clinton. Two neighborhoods Chelsea and Clinton in Manhattan had published a joint edition.
"Did they publish that in our daughter's honor?" Hillary asked.
Well t-h-a-t Chelsea happens to be for Obama.
By the way, the genius behind Chelsea For Obama is Molly Lombardi.
