Is Judge Judy a Democrat?

[bluestateguy]

My mother (who is a mostly liberal Democrat) is a big fan of the Judge Judy show. My father (who is also a mostly liberal Democrat) hates Judge Judy because he thinks she hates men.

My Mom said that she saw Judge Judy on Larry King one time and insisted that she was espousing mostly liberal points of view on issues. I know that she was appointed to her old job by Ed Koch, but we all know how good of a Democrat he is.

1. I would think so, but you never know!!!

2. don't know, but I'd say it is likely

she's a highly educated professional Jewish woman. I think the odds are good she's a Democrat. What did she do before being appointed a judge? Corporate law? The odds go down. Trial law? They go up.

3. I think she was a family court prosecutor for the state. (NY)

The only time Cheri O'Teri has really made me laugh was when she impersonated Judge Judy.


p.s. I have no clue on her political leanings but she did once refer to a needle exchange program as something "liberal morons" dreamed up.

4. well, I guess that statement makes it less likely she's liberal

n/t

5. Her husband, who, I believe, is liberal, once referred to her as

being to the right of Attila the Hun.

6. More an outspoken egocentric than anything...

But I still like her. 9 times out of 10. 8 times out of 10... 7 times out of 10?

Okey doke, 8 times out of 10. :)
