2. That's sexist...
...she's clearly more of a Meryl Streep type.

63. Yes she was a babe
I saw a movie she was in when she was young. She had a great body, and such huge riveting eyes. I don't remember the name of the movie. Saw it on TV.

Only, Clinton would be a more reliable babysitter.

25. as much as you wanna gloat about what might be hillary's future ...
please remember she said that whatever the future holds for her (or obama) she (and he) will be fine.

so go ahead gloat. you are not putting a dent into her life's journey...but you might be putting one into your own. it is, after, all, we the people that she is concerned about.

62. Never saw Gaslight
But, Angela Lansbury is a great actress. All the English Actors are superior to American Actors, and you know what? I watch a lot of their stuff, because the actors look like everyday people.

I honestly didn't mean any offense


and, umm..... although I do enjoy a nice glass of wine with a meal now and then, I don't know if that is an effective insult.

15. She looks like the Grinch to me...
with that insincere smile of hers.

I wouldn't trust her as far as I could throw her. She's a war-mongering, influence-peddling, rule-breaking has-been.

Time for the people of Texas & Ohio to step up and drive a stake into the heart of the DLC wing of the party.

Hillary Clinton is an attractive woman and so is Angela Lansbury, except that Angela is old enough to be Hillary's mother.

47. Not nice. Not my candidate, but I think she looks good.
For a 60-year-old, even a 50-year-old, she looks terrific. Better than she ever has, IMO.

I will happily ridicule her for many things, but not her looks.

55. I think the point here is Angela Lansbury in "The Manchurian Candidate"
I am guessing the OP was not knocking Hillary's looks or age, but comparing her to Angela Lansbury's character in "The Manchurian Candidate."

Which isn't very nice, either.

How about a game of solitaire?
