(Hasbeen) Carole King pitches Obama to fellow women

URBANA, Ohio — With women jumping on the Sarah Palin bandwagon, Carole King is doing her best to get them on the Obama Loco-Motion instead.

The legendary songwriter, who wrote the pop classic for Little Eva back in the early '60s, made a stop at Urbana University on Wednesday, Sept. 24, to have a heart-to-heart with other natural women.

In what was billed as a women's roundtable, King confessed she started as a Hillary Clinton supporter.

"I keep hearing in the media about this faction of Hillary supporters who are going to vote for McCain," she said. "In what universe?"

King, who wrote golden oldies for the likes of the Chiffons and the Monkees before becoming a superstar in her own right, now is solidly behind Sen. Barack Obama.

Sorry Carole but “Sweet Seasons” and Sarah Palin are on my mind.

Something about liberalism makes women age very rapidly.

What people will say and do to get their names and faces in the news these days.

Hey Carole, maybe your pro-abortion stance has something to do with your royalties taking a well-deserved plunge!

Carole King was a terrific songwriter. I first saw her perform (with James Taylor) in 1971. It was a terrific concert.

I am sorry her picture was posted. She really has gone to seed and developed that stereotypical NAG look. Very sad!

As much as I’ve liked her through the years, I have one question: Why would anyone care what she (or any other celebrity) thinks about politics?

‘we're fighting entrenched greed’

I have always wondered if Leftists think that all CEO’s are Republicans. How do they reconcile Democrat CEO’s with their own politics? Jim Johnson, Franklin Raines, etc. Republicans need to get the word out NOW that the mortgage mess is predominantly the fault of Democrats.
