MSNBC has not mentioned the Shriver endorsement
AT ALL today. They did a brief clip of the Oprah rally and I think the footage showed her there but they did not say anything about it. CNN has reported it. It truly does not matter because I know it will be all over California news (and in the papers) so that is all that matters.

Romney wins california and Arnie endorsed McCain and then Shriver endorses Obama and Hillary wins it.

5. Yeah, they talked about it early this morning and it ran as a banner across the
bottom of the newscast.

6. That's because it was a great endorsement.
Those of us that have been involved with learning disability issues are inclined to follow such endorsements from the Shriver/Kennedy connection.

8. Is it NEWS that the wife of governor endorses someone?

13. For some of us who have people with learning disabilities
in our family and have been activists, she worth a ton more than the politicians that are running our garbage government.

I guess it depends on whom one's heroes are.

11. Maria Shriver is a close friend of Oprah. It makes sense they would
vote for the same candidate.

12. Maybe because she is a once and future NBC employee?
and anyway, who cares?
