Another Hillary celebrity endorsement. (Hillary Group)

I have mixed feelings about Kathy Griffin, but I love her enthusiasm about Hillary.

http://www.huffingtonpost.com/entry/kathy-griffin-endorses-hillary-clinton_56410530e4b0b24aee4b5e41

I’m supporting Hillary. It’s gonna be a struggle. If you think sexism is dead, wake up America. Look how hard we’ve been on the black guy. The black guy has had eight years of straight-up racism and I think it’s going to be harder on the chick. So yeah, I want Hillary to win and I think it’s going to be an incredibly difficult presidency for her because as the first woman everyone is going to be so, so tough on her. If I knew her, and I don’t, I would say, ‘Hillary, are you sure you want this? It’s going to be rough.’ But I’m voting for Hillary, so I guess that makes me a terrorist if you watch Fox News? I don’t know.

She knows women's issues, especially coming from her chosen field!

New Year's Eve is now about what will she do to Anderson Cooper!

I just have mixed feelings about whether I find her funny or not. Hit or miss for me.

She likes to do topical material and she likes to push the edge.

I thinks she's talented, witty and pretty cool.

And, of course, I love her endorsement!

After Dick Clark died, the "new guy" (whose name I can't think of and don't want to google) just never appealed to me so I started flipping channels and found those two. She's silly, but she makes me laugh.

I assume she's a popular celebrity, so maybe it will generate some positive energy.
