Hillary Clinton On Ellen

Hillary Clinton sat down with Ellen and talked about equality for gay couples. Ellen didn't challenge her on marriage vs. civil unions, but still, it was to Clinton's credit that she sat down with an outspoken lesbian to talk about gay issues -- something Obama has been loathe to do lately.




Maybe this kind of thing is part of her new strategy as it always serves to connect Hillary Clinton with people when she does these kinds of things. In part two they talk about Hillary's distant relationship to Angelina Jolie, and being manhandled by Chris Matthews.
