Gina Gershon Calls the Press ‘Disgusting’ Over Clinton Allegation

I caught Gina Gershon on “Live with Regis and Kelly” and have to say it was bizarre.

Gershon is currently in the news as a purported Bill Clinton paramour. I’ll confess I haven’t read the Vanity Fair piece yet. And, I’m agnostic, on the rumor. But with Bill Clinton, you never know.

The thing that was so strange here was Gershon’s willingness to talk about it and then rant and rave about today’s media and the blogosphere. She just unloaded. “You can’t believe anything you read any more,” she told Kelly and Mario Lopez, subbing for Regis. “It’s disgusting.” The crowd erupted into applause.

PA Primary: Continued Recriminations

Overheard in a Newton cafe was a conversation between two Barack Obama supporters. The server — you might call her a barista but it wasn’t Starbucks — is recounting her experiences canvassing on behalf of Obama in Pennsylvania to a pro-Obama customer.

The young woman is talking about knocking on doors in a diverse yet heavily Republican area. She’s expressing anger at the media for characterizing Hillary Clinton’s margin of victory as a ten point victory. It’s amusing to now hear Obama supporters complaining about the press — just as I heard Clinton people doing several months ago. I’m reminded of something Ari Fleischer once told me; the press is biased…in favor of conflict.

She’s saying she’s hooked by politics, “totally addicted.”

On the plane back from Pittsburgh, I flew with a couple who had been in Pennsylvania for several weeks canvassing for Obama. Classic moonbats.

Of greater interest is that I sat next to a Massachusetts Teamster who I had seen breaking down the stage at an Obama event. He told me that the Obama forces achieved their goal, which was to keep Clinton at ten points or below. By either of those measures, Obama succeeded.
