With Enemies Like The Baroness, Who Needs Friends?
You'll recall that last week, Lynn Forester de Rothschild derailed Barack Obama's push for the "wealthy London baroness" vote by endorsing John McCain, despite being a "Hillraiser" in the primaries.
Well McCain might want to trade the baroness's endorsement to Obama for his Toby Keith one. It seems that Lady de Rothschild likes referring to her fellow anti-Obama voters as rednecks…
De Rothschild didn't stop making news with her endorsement. Later in the week, the famously wealthy London socialite went on to call those working-class Americans who Obama insulted during the primary "rednecks."
"Barack Obama went and called the people who have guns and cling to their religion bitter," de Rothschild told CNN's Campbell Brown. "The people out — who are the rednecks or whatever — are bitter."
A clip from Brown's show suggests that rather than "guns and religion," the Lady de Rothschild brand of "redneck" is more fond of clinging to pearls and old-fangled aristocratic titles. And that's great news for Obama.
In fact if the Baroness keeps popping up on TV, we can expect to a wave of "Rednecks For Obama" bumper stickers to make a sudden mass-emergence on pickups and stretch Bentleys across this nation.

Every election people say things to hurt their party. Some years it's the democrats and some it's the republicans. This year, the republicans seem to be getting the goofballs on their side.
Having McCain swooned at by another over-age over-rich white snobby cougar is not going to lose Obama any votes.
it's so hilarious to see McCain making points with the Baroness because she feels the rednecks were offended by Obama. Now that's a Baroness with her finger on the pulse of America.
It is a natural alliance, like McCain the Baroness Lady De Rothchilds is not afraid to tackle the elites who lord their privileges over us.
Andrej M., I'm surprised you didn't make any anti-Semitic comments about Mrs. de Rothschild. Then again, what you did say about her is already hateful enough.
Rothschilds… the cancer of the earth.
I am sure you took it all out of context – she is a lady and glad to have her on the McCain side of things. Obama and media obviously is scared or the push to make her look bad would not be so obvious. Glad you feel threatened, you should!
Clearly Lady de feels more comfortable hanging out with the McCain set. I mean the Obamas don't even have a vacation home, for gawdsakes. I don't blame her. Any elitist who can't bother to own a nice little place in the Hamptons and few golf carts to get around in ought not to be President. What a piker. Obama probably wouldn't even invite her to stay over in the Lincolcn bedroom.
