CNN

who is this and who cares!!! Can we get back to important issues?!!!

lol lol lol lol lol lol lol lol lol lol lol lol lol lol lol .....I can't stop laughing.

I don't get it. If Obama is elitist, why are elites like Rothschild pissed off? Even more, why is Obama taxes heavy on elites and light on poor?

If Obama is elitist, elites like Rothschild and Cindy McCain should support him.

Obama/Biden are on a smear campaign beacuse they would 'nt know the truth if it hit them in the postier. Too bad no one has the guts to talk up how much Fannie and Freddie paid those two over the years and how many bills were sponsored by McCain to get those weasels we just bailed out to be regulated. Oh yeah that was because Barney Frank and team may have had their hands in the cookie jar eh?

Maybe we're just all sick of the total BS the republicans throw at us daily and guess what.... WE WANT OUR COUNTRY BACK

Ms. Smith, she's obviously entitled to her opinions; we just find it very amusing that a Rothschild would call someone 'elitist' (it's not surprising though that a large number of conservatives have probably never even heard of the Rothschilds, considering their aversion to anything beyond Fox News).

I can see the White House from the front stoop of my condominium and it's only 3 blocks away. Hell of a lot closer than Russia.

HOORAY! I'm qualified to be Vice President!

Yawn! So...wait...someone has an opinion about this election? Why is no one televising my opinion, oh yeah, because I'm not RICH!

The only thing remotely interesting about this woman is her husband's status as a scion. Seriously, what's a "scion"? I looked it up on wikipedia, and it means a son or daughter. So now the bigger question is, why did Toyota choose that for a car name?

Oh sorry Mrs. De Rothschild, you were speaking?

It's insane that McCain publicly opposed the Lilly Ledbetter bill and skipped out on its vote, conveniently. Is that someone who supports women's rights? And he wants to overturn Roe v. Wade.

I guess if you are a community organizer instead of a high priced lawyer, you are someone who thinks you are "better" than everyone else and are therefore an "elitist." Get real.

You are voting for the person who most looks like you. If you're not an elitist, what does that make you?

Typical crying from the obamaphiles. Why don't you go flooding the radio stations with calls to beat down his opponents. Your boy will lose in Nov. 4 more years of Republican Rule. I love it!

This "elitist" label everyone keeps trying to pin on Obama is absurd. According to her own definition that an elitist is someone who thinks they are better than us - nearly every single politician in this country would fall under that. And, I'm sorry, don't by the argument "elitism" is a mindset. Hogwash, it is totally related to ones priviledges in life.

Mrs. Smith, have you heard and read comments from the other side? C'mon, both sides are firing attacks, if you can't see both do it, you are pretty blind.

Special thanks to Lynn Forester de Rothschild. She said the same thing women have been saying for months, but our voice has been unheard by the DNC. She has the power to be heard and the courage to say it.

Oh Mrs. Smith –
I guess Rethuglicans are not rude, they're just liars

I can see the White House from the front stoop of my condominium and it's a lot closer than Russia.

Oh My God! I'm qualified to be Vice President!

Who cares what a Rothschild says or thinks. So clueless.

Yeah then why would Obama give up his chance to be whatever he wanted to just to go back down into the trenches to help people who were less fortunate than he was. Then let us as people apologize for Obama caring for someone other then his own self. Lady Rothschild needs a reality check ASAP!!!

She is a sexist as well...all she wants is a woman in the whitehouse, even if it is an unqualified hockey mom named Palin.

SHUT UP YOU OLD HAG!!! No One cares WHAT you have to say.

Please GO AWAY, FAR AWAY!

Racist!

Looks like De Rothschild is supporting McCain to spite Obama but not based on 'issues' simply because Hillary lost. It seems like she is 'bitter' and did not get over the fact that Hillary lost. She is entitled to endorse McCain but she should shut up and stop labelling Obama 'elitist' and using harsh words like 'it is insane to say McCain is not good for women'. Well, I am a woman and John McCain's vote against 'equal pay for equal work' is not good for me. Does that sound 'insane'?. She is the 'elitist' and struggling families know that OBAMA IS NOT ELITIST. I wonder when she is going back to London for her vacation and give us a break!

I guess she was an okay person when she supported Clinton but now she isn't. Ms. Smith is right, everyone is entitled to their own opinions

Hey Ms. Smith:

Don't be such a hypocrite. I suppose you defen the McCain lies and inaccuracies too!

Typical republican! Spooky!

Sure she spends 90% of her time living in London and and does not consider herself elitist how stupid do these Mc Cain people think we are they just come up with more and more unbelievable things everyday

Is this woman serious? She is the ELITIST whose words come off as pretty insulting. She is either very very bitter that Hillary lost or just doesn't like the idea of a confident black guy in the white house. How can u justify this switch when Obama and Clinton were about 95% the same on the issues. You don't "trust" him and he is "full of himself." Is this Geraldine Ferraro's more racist sister?!?!?!

Racist, turncoat, traitor, and elitist. You have made Hillary proud!

We know who you 're–a big bigot married to a billionaire. It is absolutely deplorable to hear you called Obama elitist. What a joke-this is a guy that borrowed money for college, grew up in single parent household? Shame, shame Lynn Forester.

MS SMITH..............

SURE SHE HAS A RIGHT TO AN OPINION ......BUT WHAT MAKES HER THINK ANYONE CARES WHAT SHE HAS TO SAID......PLZ.........

PICK POCKET TIME IS OVER.......AMERICA IS AWAKE NOW DIDN'T YOU GET THE MEMO

WE WILL TAKE OUR COUNTRY BACK FROM THE GREEDY ELITES.....

OBAMA/BIDEN 08

Well I guess this crazy person got the attention she wanted. She forgot to mention that as a child this was the attention she did not get.

Poor thing.

The saddest thing is she actually things people care about her opinion.

Oh and anyone else see a connect between: "made their fortune in private banking" and what is happening this week?

This idiot is so transparent it's pathetic!

I am not voting for the odd couple. The McCain Palin ticket looks like a bad arranged marriage. Remind McCain Campaign that Palins work related emails are property of the state.

You have got to be kidding me she says "An elitist is someone whose state of mind is that they’re better than the rest of us" Ok, she has described herself, but not Obama.

Campbell did an excellent job interviewing this woman last night. Lynn simply could not answer why she accuses Obama of being an elitist. Makes me wonder why she really hates Obama?? Hummmm

If Obama were truly an elitist, would he have used that Ivy league education to help the urban Chicago poor? Elitists don't have a strong record of subverting their own ambitions to help the less fortunate. She may not like Obama because he is smarter than most of us- but that doesn't make him elitist.

In any case, I'd rather have a brilliant elitist navigating our country away from certain disaster than a well-meaning buffoon.

Not only is Mr. NOBAMA an elitist, but he is also a racist.
Only he could attend a church for 20 years, and be mentored by a racist most of his adult life (the Good Reverend) and say he never got the message that was preached from the pulpit? Come on people the man is a joke. She is not the only Democrat that has opened her eyes, many of us have.
Hillary 2012!!

Go Mc Cain – Palin

it would really be nice if CNN can post a link to the interview Campbell Brown did with Lynn Forester de Rothschild on Wed 17th.

this nut job could not defend her claims that obama is an elitist and arrogant. isn't it sad that people like this who should know better focus on irrelevant claims and make their decisions based on that?

it just shows that having money does necessarily make you smart person.

Why should we care about this Rotten child?? Economy is screwed. stocks are tumbling, and we are worrying about Donald Trump, Rotten child, Limbaug and Joe Dauberman or Bill O'reily.

Shame on us. We always get our attention diverted to unnecessary issues.

I've yet to hear her say one thing to back up her support of McCain or her disdain of Obama. She's making a fool of herself by going public.

Let's keep our eye on the ball here: her support wouldn't make OR break Senator Obama's bid for the white house and it is less than is needed for Senator McCain to get the votes he so desperately needs.

No worries. She's only 1 sour grape.

Just because you have money and properties doesn't make you elite in this sense. She's talking about the state of mind. Obama is drunk with power. Look at the stage he had built for his acceptance speech. It was a temple. He oversold his tickets to the stadium as well.

Then there's the O seal he created in the likeness of the presidential seal. The man is so full of himself. People forgot the guns and religion bit. He says he wants to give power back to the people, but he wants to create new agencies and government institutions to govern their lives and he sells that to his followers like a preacher.

He declined public campaign financing. The list goes on and on.

As soon as this board fills up with anti-McCain posts CNN will close it off....AGAIN.

Hey Lynn, the peroxide has sarted to seep into your pores!

The closest Palin will ever get to taking that 3am call will be when a moose is going through her garbage cans!

Well all you obama robots have finally shown your true colors. This woman supported Hillery. So I guess she has many of the same problems as McCain.

O Bama and the dems are succeeding at what they do best–divide the country racially and economically. Because idiots like you actually believe it.

McCain/Palin! These hard workers deserve to win the White House and clean up this crazy mess!

Give me a break ! She was an enthusiastic supporter of Senator Clinton and now supports McCain whose views are in stark contrast to Clinton's. She doesn't have to like anybody and can support whomever she wants, but don't be an "elitist" hypocrite. Senators Clinton and Obama have practically identical views on the issues. I loved my Grandmother, but I wouldn't have voted for her just because she was a woman. Apparently Rothschild's support for Clinton was purely gender-based as she now enthusiastically embraces Palin regardless of the issues.

So basically she is saying..."I feel that Obama is an elitist so now I am changing sides and voting for a man who wants to continue the war in Iraq, doesn't believe in a woman's right to choose, doesn't have a plan to make healthcare affordable, and the list goes on and on..." It is a shame that there are so many people around the world who can't vote for their leader and we have people such as Lynn Forester de Rothschild that base their vote on utter nonsense. "I don't like Obama so I'm voting for McCain". Give me a break.

This chic is too much. Anyone w/ "de" in their name or married to a sir shouldn't be calling anyone else elite, esp a black guy. BTW pukess your roots are black, go to London and hang w/ the Sir

I'm pretty sure she grew up with all of us in "the hood" too. lol lol lol

She failed to mention he's black that is why she isn't supporting him.

Hey Jersey Girl................................STOP

AMERICA IS AWAKE NOW....................................DIDN'T YOU GET THE MEMO

NOBODY CARES WHAT YOU THINK...............................................

WE ARE TAKING BACK OUR COUNTRY .......SO YOU AND YOUR ELITE FRIENDS CAN GO PICK THE POCKETS OF SOMEBODY WHOSE SLEEP.....

LOSER..............................

OBAMA/BIDEN 08

McCain ALSO has a record of voting AGAINST equal pay for women bills as a senator.

That doesn't sound like a politician who supports women's rights.

Get your facts straight

This women is an idiot to her core. she is a billion air married to another billionare, but obama's the elitists. What a dirtbag.

And why should we care about you Jersey Girl.

Good-bye lady, don't leave angry, just leave.

Obama/Biden 08

Please, please, please keep putting this person on the air.

She forgot to mention that Obama is uppity.

I can only say that her mind is narrow and heart is ugly.

I thought we were done with this tart yesterday. Why is she still in news? I saw her on Campbell Brown last night and she made an idiot of herself.

She might have grown up modest but she lives in the lap of luxury. For her to DARE call Obama elitist is disgusting and transparent. She is just upset that Hillary didn't win the nomination and is taking her marbles to another circle.

Wanna know what I think? This is a racist reaction, through and through...she couldn't give one good reason to back up her support of McCain or her disdain of Obama. She is full of it.

Let Rothschild dance in the spotlight for 5 minutes, afterall, she is wearing lipstick!

When all you have is "personal attacks," you obviously cannot argue your point of view or discredit the other side.

I appreciate her change of opinion.

Elitist? Wow!!! Must not have looked in the mirror. If Hillary ever gets to be president, I am sure her phone won't be ringing. New Jersey doesn't want her either

What a pathetic excuse! Oh, that's right, instead of focusing on issues that matter, she based her decision on image. That's America for ya!

WHATS GOING ON AMERICA, OR THEY HIDING BODIES SO THERE IS NOT ANOTHER "KATRINA" STORY. HOW COME WE DIDN'T HEAR ABOUT THE ANTI-PALIN PROTESTING IN ALASKA? CORPORATE OWNED MEDIA!

NO MENTION OF THIS AT ALL ON THE TICKER...I WONDER WHY?

Rep. Wayne Gilchrest, a maverick Republican from Maryland, endorsed Illinois Democratic Sen. Barack Obama for president in an interview with WYPR, Baltimore's National Public Radio station Wednesday.

Gilchrest, who lost a primary campaign and is retiring from Congress, has already endorsed the Democrat running for his seat, Frank Kratovil. Justifying his endorsement of Obama, Gilchrest said that "we can't use four more years of the same kind of policy that's somewhat haphazard, which leads to recklessness."

Obama and his running mate, Sen. Joe Biden (D-Del.), "have the breadth of experience. I think they're prudent. They're knowledgable."

She is entitled to her opinion. Obama supporters - try taking a break from being rude!

Rothschild obviously realized that Obama's message of "change" might be a little hollow when he decided to take a trip on the Wayback Machine to drag up a VP from the wide-tie-and-polyester-suit era. Tell us, Sen. Biden, exactly what did you learn about changing Washington under the Nixon administration?

I am a Hillary fan, but this woman is insane. Reasons not to vote for the McPalin Ticket:

-Kept the money from the bridge to nowhere
-Is under investigation for corruption, abuse of power
-Wants public schools to teach creationism
-Alaska only truly supplies 3% of natural gas in the U.S. not 20%
-$198 million in earmarks, still the highest in the nation per capita Reformer?
-Against sex education! Irony?
She's Bush in a women's costume. Any questions???

"As President, he will be very full of himself." Oh my. A person who is proud of his accomplishments is, I guess, an elitist. Hmm, you sound pretty proud of your accomplishments, Mrs. Rothchild-methinks that you are an elitist by your own definition.

Why don't you just be honest and say that you can't vote for a person of mixed race...and stop this stupid tiff over semantics? You are a racist elitist, and should be very happy in the Republican party with Palin. Good riddance.

So she married for money, much like McCain the second time.

Hey Lynn,

McCain ALSO has a record of voting AGAINST equal pay for women bills as a senator.

That doesn't sound like a politician who supports women's rights.

Get your facts straight.

I SAW THIS WOMAN ON WITH CAMPBELL BROWN LAST EVENING AND BOY DID SHE MAKE HER SELF LOOK LIKE A DONKEY (I DIDN'T WANT TO SAY THE "a" WORD.

She needs to take a good look in her gold-framed mirror.

Do I see lipstick on pig. You can go campaign with Palin.

Did you ever work in a factory?

Have you ever lost your job because it was outsourced?

Who cares about what you say. Obama / Biden will win...

Bet on Barack. He's tired of the games and the lies.

Bet on the man who graduated from Harvard with honors. Bet on the man who didn't let his circumstances get in his way, and made something of himself. Bet on the one who actually stayed with his wife and kids. Bet on the one who made an excellent choice for VP. Bet on the man who will listen and work with all people. Bet on Barack, America, you won't be sorry.

Obama/Biden

Can someone please explain me why would anyone vote for 4more years of Republican administration???

McCain is planning on continuing the same old policy that led us to this economic crises in the first place!!

Here's the problem–people who are elite are unable to define what that means. Just like a rich person usually thinks they're not rich, but the next guy up the ladder is. It is utterly ridiculous, given her background, that Lynn Forester De Rothschild thinks Obama is elite and she isn't. Just look at her name–there's a clue right there.....

And now she's a spoiled brat who just wants her way. To heck with pesky voters, they should have made the choice she wanted them to make. This woman is a phony and a fake and has the nerve to call Barack an elitist.

She can't say what she really wants to say, which is she's not supporting him because he's black. Oops, let's stay away from the truth. Okay Lady de Rothschild, we'll pretend you're making such a stink because he's an elitist. And I've got some land in Alaska I'd like to show you.

Obama/Biden 08

It appears to be that this woman is solely looking for a woman to be either president or vice president. I would wonder if she actually looked at the policies and past voting record of Obama and McCain. It doesn't matter if you don't like someone; what matters is what the policies have and will be. If you like the policies and how they voted on them in the past, that is your candidate.

As for her being a Jersey girl, that is fine, but I don't believe her. Where did she grow up?

sounds like her story is simmilar to obama's up-bringing... only difference, she is loaded, he is NOT. who is elitist???????

You Obama supporters crack me up!! Why is it that anyone who doesn't like him is a racist? I am married to a black man and I don't think you can call me a racist. But I cannot stand the arrogance of Obama and his supporters.

During the primaries, he and his supporters blamed everything that was bad on Hillary Clinton and her "bitter" supporters. And of course, now they have the Republicans to blame for everything.

Take a look in the mirror you morons. Heaven forbid anyone should call you or your candidate unflattering names, but it is OK for you to call McCain and Palin by every disgusting name in the book, and mock them at the same time.

I am scared to death of another 4 years of republican rule, but I will not vote for "Mr. Arrogance".

I know it was a different thread, but why did the Obama campaign release an ad in Spanish blaming McCain for all of the immigration woes? Did you honestly think no one would understand what you were saying?

And one more thing...CNN why did you close the comments after only 7 replies on the above noted story? Too many people not agreeing with you?

Did she just say, "as president he (obama) will be very full of himself?" MY GOD!! Where do they get these people?

Looks like this De Rothschild woman is 'bitter' and is supporting McCain out of spite for Obama because Hillary did not win. Okay, she is entitled to her own opinion but it looks like she was was not supporting 'issues' right from the start but personalities. That said, her endorsement does not carry much weight. I wonder how many people, other than her club of friends know about her. She fits the 'elitist' bill but NOT Obama; struggling Americans know that HE IS NOT ELITIST!

...and didn't Barack Obama come from a single parent household and was for awhile raised by his grandparents? Lived on foodstamps? Went to school on loans? What is her problem?

soundsl ike her story is simmilatr to obama's up-bringing... only difference, she is loaded, he is NOT. who is elitist???????

My question to her is why was she supporting Hillary Clinton? Why is she a democrat? Why is she even here? She could have kept her comments to herself but for her to go out now and support all of McCain's issues and stances is ridiculous. I am not kocking her wealth but her reasons for not supporting obama aren't what they seam because he isn't an elitist and it is unfortunante that she doesn't see McCain for who he is because if that wase the case she would have supported him from the start!!

Common Sense is something that we all DON"T have. I hope and pray her reasons aren't race related.

No an elitist is someone who thinks that their oh so important opinion is newsworthy simply because they are rich, and raised lots of money for different candidates. She mentions nothing about the issues and is an expert on nothing except arrogance, and creating unnecessary drama.

Just go away.

Why is she even in the news? There are more important things than this "attention starving gold digger". Get this out...and let's focus on the economy, our security, etc.

Hmm just google Rothschild.
Some family legacy, they are war profiteers , dont be surprised if they are benefiting directly from these investment bank mergerers, and are the ones indirectly on top when the dust settles.

They are the worst, egotistical, machavelian people on the face of this earth.

The interest of the debt of the Napolean war financed by Rothchilds has just been recently paid.

No, I dont give a hoot what a scion of a Rothchild thinks

You liberals are pathetic. You think that if someone has made a good living for themselves they are elitist. You are jealous and it's getting old. As most liberals want, let's take from the rich and give to the poor so they continue to refuse to get a job. Yeah, let's tax the corporations so they will ship more jobs overseas. Now who's out of touch

If this woman is a DNC member, then per party bylaws her membership shoould be revoked!

Sound like another Geraldine Ferraro came out of the wood work. Her 15 minutes are over. Let's move on. She is so not worth the media coverage. We all know she's not voting for him because he's black.

Yes, we now do have a paper trail. It will be much harder for them to steal it but they are already trying other things.
The Republican secretary of state just put into effect a law that says if your drivers license address doesn't match what's in the Supv of elections system, you will not get a ballot but will instead get a provisional ballot. You will get to vote on it but you will have to go to the Supv of elections office within a couple days to prove that your vote should count. If you don't it will be thrown out. This will primarily effect the poor and minority voters who would tend to vote Democratic. This will cause delays at the polling place as people are challenged and many will probably get angry and leave. This is what they are hoping....

Now I just read an article a couple days ago that the Sec of State in Wisconsin, also a Republican just instituted the same law. The polls in Wisconsin are very close and the Democrats normally win there so I think they are trying to tip the scales in there favor there.

The will stop at nothing to win an election!

This is great news to have another Democrat moving to the other side.

BO has a lot of baggage and is not the right person to lead our country. The do nothing Democrats in both house, are again proving that they could care less about the taxpayers of this country.
The latest being, the vote to drill oil outside the 50 mile limit, where there isn't enough oil there to support the USA.
You BO supporters better start listening and understanding what is going on. can stop listening to the BS, that BO is giving out regarding John McCain and the Bush Administration. Mr McCain is his own man, an honerable man, BO can not even come close to being honerable. He is so far up the Dem. %^& , it hard to seperate them.

Bo and the present Democrats are the problem not the solution.

Dem. going Repub.

How's the kool-aid, Lynn?

yeah and you can see Russia from your home too .. right?

Yep – and I'm just the King of Czechoslovakia.

"An elitist is someone whose state of mind is that they’re better than the rest of us"
----------

What a nut case. Isn't it time for high tea so that you can watch the polo-ponies and yell at the coloured folks to hurry up with their chores.

Oh and by the way, Mrs. Frou-Frou, an elitist is not someone who thinks they are better than the rest of us, an elitist is someone WHO HAS SHOWN that they are better than the rest of us. Marrying a rich English dud doesn't earn you that right.

And was her mother on welfare? Barack is not an elitist.

Please stop picking on Mrs. Rothchild. Her comment, " Let them eat cake." was very inspiring. Only last week she was seen throwing
dollar bills from her carraige to the poor wretches in mid town Manhattan.

Lady you are so full of yourself..................Do you know what it's like to have to decide do I eat or pay the bill so my lights can stay on? Hey have long ago was it that you got to eat out? When was the last time you got to buy new clothes? Get real people she needs to go to McCain cause he doesn,'t know either how the real american people live .

You can speak for Senator McCain as you want BUT is Senator McCain who has to speak for himself, even you know.

Get your 100 million dollar fortune and get out of my face!!! Unless, you have business for me, get out of my face!!!!

I believe if Obama loses this election, Clinton will not stand a chance in 2012. There are so many of her supporters make a noise now to derail Obamas bid. I guess these so-called Democrats are not really Democrats. She might have earned millions of dollars but she has no common sense. All she would have to do is look at McCain's record to know who he is for. He is for people like her, people with a lot of money. Makes no difference if she is a woman or a man, as long as she has millions. Please stop printing stuff about her. She has had her 15 minutes of fame.

So we should vote for a guy who picks the most anti-women's rights candidate for VP?

Thanks, but no thanks!

What a pathetic excuse not to vote for Obama. Hillary stands for everything McSame is against. Oh, that's right, Rothschild based her decision on image and not serious issues. That's America for ya!

Were so sick of Obama we could Puke too!! You must be a very smart women!! Yes McCain all the way !!!

LOL....An elitist hypocrite–Rothschild will fit right in with the Republican Party.

So we should vote for a guy who picks the most anti-women's rights woman in the world!!

Thanks, but no thanks.

She stated on Larry King when pressed for an answer as to why she is voting for McCain after supporting Clinton in the primary, she stated that it's because Obama is an elitist. She's one of the ten riches women on the planet and she calls Obama an elitist???? This stuff just gets stranger and stranger. And oh yeah, Gov. Palin thanks but no thanks on that trip to the White House.

And here we have the McCain/Palin base. Old, rich and out of touch people that have NO IDEA how much a gallon of milk costs.

Why did she support Hillary? If its ANYTHING other then because she's a woman... then she should be supporting Obama – who has just about the same POLICY!!!

The reason why our economy is crashing is because of Iraq all the money that was supposed to refuel the economy are been sent to Iraq while the economy is let alone to die. The consumers have no confidence in the market that is mean they will not spend and again the economy will struggle. John McCain does not understand that simple economics formula and stated that the economy is strong. I know that McCain pocket is strong because he is a rich man. But, our economy is not strong.

I watched Rothschild interview with Campbell Brown last nite. How can anyone with this woman's resume, prestige, and money be in a position to call Barack Obama an elitist? It's absolutely laughable. The term elitist was coined to describe people just like her.

What she should do is stop hiding behind this "elitist" bs, and be honest enough to say why she REALLY refuses to support Obama. She is yet another person who is not ready or willing to embrace the idea of a qualified, educated, charismatic, African American man as president of the United States.

AND I HAVE A BRIDGE IN ALASKA FOR SALE!!!!

REALLY, WHO CARES!!!!!!

For haven's sake! It's not hard to figure out why she endorsed McCain. This chick will have to pay taxes for the first time in 8 years if Obama is elected. She has alot to loose.

Another sore loser from camp Hillary.

Voters have two choices:

1) Vote for the guy who agrees with George W Bush 90% of the time: McCain

2) Vote for the guy who agrees with Hillary Clinton 90% of the time: Obama

Rothschild made her choice; she now supports the guy who wants to even further deregulate the industry that made her husband rich. Big surprise.

I am not sure if any of you all so her interview the Campbell yesterday.. She looked like an idiot as she sat there and talked about her muti billion dollar fortune but called Obama an elitist..She never answered Campbel's question directly about that.

The name calling is hillarious on here is hillarious...The people hanging out on the CNN Forums and Comment room have so much hate. I

I think she's just "bitter"

She seems to think that Obama didn't have to work to where he is either.

And the fact that she's defending McCain on women's issues is laughable. He does have a record, that's true. But it's mostly bad, and what of it that's good he's run away from. She says Obama simply has rhetoric...but McCain is worse. He has rhetoric that says one thing, then a record that says the other.

who really cares...she acts like an elitist & should really have always been with the GOP. Hey I was also a Hillary supporter but I have sense enough to move on ....I do wish she would have left our party & taken Joe Lieberman with her & not just been willing to vote republican.

McCain economic plan ‘ultimate Bridge to Nowhere’ now that is a CNN story. I am still not sure, what this is.

What an idiot.................................

Yeah... another one of us "common folk" who calls Obama an elitest. She sounds about as common as McCains wife... who belongs to American royalty. Please... she fits the McCain/Palin agenda well.

God spare us from another 4 years of these people.

She had that sort of glazed over look............like Glenn Close in 'Fatal Attraction'.

Let's look at the facts. We're in the middle of an economic crisis and egObama is out with his hollywood chums liviing it up at a $28,000 a plate dinner. An elitist, egObama?

Obama is going to lose. Accept it.

Sour Grapes. Who needs her??????

Who is this woman and how did she get on tv???

She's a snobby woman in pearls. Did you see her press conference? She acted stuck up. She calling the poor guy from Hawaii snobby? The republicans aren't even buying this one.

Say anything do anything to protect the money. Isn't this the true mantra of a wealthy conservative?

I wonder if this broad was a kid in a single parent home. See the problem is elitest is what you say now wen a black man is "uppity".,..

Why does CNN keep highlighting her endorsement of McCain. She should be ignored. Frankly, endorsements don't mean much and no one cares. No one is buying the argument that Obama is an elitist, so Lynn please give it up

Don't worry Barack, I have ten more votes in NJ for you!

Not Getting Bushed Again!
Obama/Biden in 08!

So what she is saying is not that Obama is elitist, but that she thinks he is "uppity" – she's just afraid to speak her mind...

Does anyone care what this woman has to say? We get it, richers love McCain. The rest of us everyday people will be casting our votes for Obama in November, and there are a lot more of us then there are of them.

She is a racist, that is the only one way to explain her more, because there is no real difference between Obama and Hillary's plans for America. She may also be running from paying her taxes like Trump who is supporting McWBush because he wants to gain more from these tax cuts which were immoral in 2007 for McSame but became very moral in 2008.

She is so blind it's not even funny.

That's hysterical! She might as well say she's from the HOOD! Get real!

Nobody really cares.............on either side. We are worrying about keeping our jobs and homes.

This individual is irrelevant to the campaign.

It surprises me to read that these comments are "moderated." One wonders if individual commentators could exercise a bit of self-moderation and try contributing something intelligent and relevant.

We care about this one voter why. Oh yah, because he was a big Hillary support. Like we cant find people who switch to Obama, after the Palin pick. Believe it or not, thay do exist. Many of them former Hillary supports also. You dont say....

This lady needs to take her butt right back to Britain and keep it THERE!

Hmmm... De Rothschild points out her roots and her upbringing as defense of her not being "elitist" and she completely ignores Obama's roots and upbringing when charging he is an elitist...

And I seriously don't understand the line about, "An elitist is someone whose state of mind is that they’re better than the rest of us" comes from... guess she must be a mind-reader in addition to being the wife of "Sir" Evelyn Rothschild. I'm sure De Rothschild and her $100+ million fortune she made doesn't go around thinking she's better than the rest of us... right...

I saw her interview on CNN last night and couldn't stop laughing! I could just imagine the McCain campaign on the edge of their seats wanting the show to cut to commercial! LOL!

She doesn't vote for the issues, just out of spite, all she is doing is strengthening the democratic party by making us more motivated than ever to come out November.

I am from a blue state but I will still come out in support of Obama, even though I am positive he will win anyway, I want the popular vote to blow the doors off the republicans!

Even if you are in a solidly red or blue state, come out and vote november, lets get the popularity vote to really send a message loud and clear!!

Why do we care so much about what millionaires think? Why do we hear about her thoughts, why does she hold press conferences? Most people in the U.S. have thoughts and opinions, but I guess those opinions don't matter cause we don't make enough money to hold a press conference. Just sounds like rich people supporting other rich people - COUNTRY FIRST.

And I own Lehman Brothers!!

she is not-pro maccain , she is only anti -oBama!!!

who?? who cares...not news CNN

You can put lipstick on a "privileged elitist," but it's still an elitist.

Why doesn't CNN, or any other major news network, talk about Obama's meddling in American and Iraqi military and foreign affairs? Oh that's right, it isn't okay to "blasphemy" the messiah.

Obama is an elitist – he went to private schools – he didn't have the street experience, the waiting on food line experiences, the factory experience, the foreclosure experience, the standing on the unemployment line experience, the military experience – really what did he have but a smooth sail because of his yapping ability.

Not any more you're not you pompous windbag shrew!!! Take it somewhere else...nobody's buying your tripe.

So, vote for a guy who picks the most anti-woman's rights woman as VP?

To quote his VP – "Thanks, but no thanks!"

Whatever cow!
Obama could be the most self-centered arogant bastard in the history of the world, for all I care. As long as he can stop this country's downward spiral then he can have my vote and you can shut the hell up

You can put lipstick on a pig, but it's still a pig.

Shut the hell up Lady, u sound confused.

This lady told a truth.
When all Americans especially those white working men and women cool down and they will recognize this and then they make a good choice (a man with more experiences and good record to fight for his fellow citizens) for this country.

What is it with these Peggy Hill wanna be clones coming out of the woodwork?! Listen your highness, you can act like it all you want but you're no Peggy Hill.

If you vote for McCain you deserve the Bizarro world you get! Don't come crying to us. Hillary doesn't want your support if you "only" voted for her for her gender.

You know, it's just as sexist to vote for someone because of their gender as it is to vote against them. Hillary is a very intelligent and capable woman who doesn't need your pandering butt-kissing votes in the first place.

Please! She's supporting McCain because she wants a tax break.

yawn

another nut case from nowhere your one second fame is up!!!!!!!!!! go home now

She just dose not make any sense to me, she must be just p...
because Hilary lost, you know Hilary did alot of lieing and mud wrestling when she ran , just like Msame...she must just get turned on by that kind of politics, I guess she has the right to vote for whom she chooses.Can any one answer me this , when the do the polling are they just calling people with land lines , because if they arn't calling cells , than that would explain why Obamas not way further ahead than Mcsame

If she was for Hillary and disagrees with every issue McCain is for (and voting for thr person) she is singing one song

"true colors shining through"

Another nutcase. She is racist – she sounded empty and the news media is giveing her a platform for her racist views.

This woman is a bitter nasty and apparently vindictive idiot!

“Trying to tag John McCain as ‘not good for women’ is just insane,” de Rothschild said Wednesday.

EXCUSE ME. WHO IS THE INSANE ONE LYNN????

Come on guys give some love to this poor rich woman. She is trying to say that she is one among us. Did Maccain teach you that.
Sorry didn't work.

GOLDDIGGER!!!!!

I saw the interview with Campbell Brown yesterday. This lady is a SOUR GRAPE (A Rich Sour Grape) She couldn't say why she didn't want to vote for Obama. It sounded like the issues were NOT the problem but in fact she a Biggot! Just say the truth Lynn. Obama is BLACK. Because his views are almost exactly the same as Clinton. So come clean. CNN please do your homewok before you invite guests to come on the show. She looked like a complete idiot.

Let's get this straight: being raised by a single mom and working your way through school is being an elitist. You have to be born to a powerful family who uses influence to get you into West Point when your grades aren't good enough to get you in anywhere else; or, be born a Rothschild and we all know that that name means nothing (LOL, LOL, LOL, LOL) – oh yeah – you are soooooo down to earth.

Lynn Who???? and she lives where six months out of the year. Everyday Americans don't have that privelege. She is out of touch so who cares who she supports.

Please, if she was supporting Obama, she'd be praised as a strong woman and celebrated for raising and donating tons of money.

She didn't help Hilary and show wont help McSame and Palin-comparison.

lady the rough child......should shut up. it's obvious she is the elitist. and she has certainly forgot how she came up. now she is married to a billionaire and she is a multimillionaire herself and she wants to tell me obama and biden don't get it because they want to give me health care and lower my gaz price. this lady must been drinking too much sizzzup.......or something cause is is drunk on something

who are you trying to fool Ma'am ?? yourself or us ??

MCCAIN USED TO BE AN HONORABLE, MORAL MAN AND A ROLE MODEL.

NOW HE IS LITTLE MORE THAN A SAD, BITTER, ANGRY, SELF-ABSORBED OLD MAN WITH OLD IDEAS.

HOW TRAGIC TO COMPROMISE ONE'S INTEGRITY, CONSCIENCE AND HUMANESS ALL FOR THE SAKE OF WINNING AN ELECTION.

HOW PATHETIC AND VERY, VERY SAD. HE IS NOW JUST A TIRED CLOWN.

He may be a bit cocky and confident

But he is no elitist

You my dear, are elitist. I wonder has she read Obama's bio because he sure didnt have a silver spoon in her mouth'

She is just salty is all

Can someone in the news media ask this woman 3 questions?

1) Name 1 issue Hillary Clinton is closer to McCain on than Obama?

2) Please name 1 women's issue for which McCain has lead and/or supported? (Picking Sarah Palin doesn't count)

3) Please explain why you believe Obama to be snobbish and/or elitist? (No generalities or "feelings", only empirical evidence...)

She said: “An elitist is someone whose state of mind is that they’re better than the rest of us,”

By her definition, she can't possibly be referring to Obama. He's always talking about "we" - about how together we can fix the problems this country faces and make the world a better place. He's the community organizer working side-by-side with anybody willing to make a positive difference. He doesn't put himself above anybody.

why is this SPOILED BRAT EVEN GETTING HEADLINES COME ON CNN !!!!!!!! THIS IS LUDACRIS !!!!!!

She's a PUMA – no reason to expect logic from this person.

This woman need to zip it!

De Rothschild, a lawyer and entrepreneur who made a reported $100 million in telecommunications

Ok so I am supposed to beleive that she is just a jersey girl...come on.

She is dumb. Hillary please give her money back.

Last Night during a TV interview She said that she was opposed to Obama because there would just be to much democratic control with him in the White House and Pelosi in Congress. What strikes me as strange is that she believes there wouldn't be to much democratic control if Hillary was in the White House and Pelosi in Congress. This thougt pattern from a woman who claims that she's been a Democrat all her life. I think she's someone that has a problem not with a democrat in the White House, but an African American in the White House.

GEE LYNN, OBAMA CAME FROM THE SAME PLACE, ONLY WITH LESS ADVANTAGES.

TWO-FACED BIATCH!

Are you kidding me? This lady is something right out of Alfred Hitchcock movie.

Lynn excuse me, Lady Lynn, Baroness Lynn enjoys great wealth therefore bread and butter issues like pay equality matter not to her. John McCain voted against equal pay for women. I am certain had Lynn been unsuccessful at gold-digging, and had to work for a living like an average American woman, she'd be voting for Obama/Biden.

This does not sound like someone who supported Hillary based on the issues. Vote for McCain, fine–but arguing that McCain will be good for women is insane.

LOOK IN THE MIRROR B****! YOU ARE A WHITE, A WOMAN, AND A REPUBLICAN ELITIST.

WHO THE HELL DO YOU THINK YOU'RE FOOLING?

She is a racist.

This woman is the "ELITIST" and a sore looser. I cant wait until Obama is elected President ande becomse the official leader of the DNC and kicks Rothschild's butt right of the committee nd back over to her Republican side.

Another rich white billionaire defecting to the Republican party. Is this surprising to anyone? And spare me the "elitist" crap when you split your time between homes in NY and Londong.

I'll get banned if I say what I am really thinking so I'll just say she is full of it!!!!

You are elitist, don't try to redefine the word and it at your advantage.

And the only thing you are really doing good in make those statements in favor of McCain is losing respect from women across America!

We have been playing the "GENDER CARD" dealing with this Palin chic–let me reintroduce The Race Card... de Rothschild is a RACIST.

She could not give a clear explanation as to why she would back McCain EVEN THOUGH she is a registered democrat???? Her answer was," I dont care for him. It's just one of those things where you know it when you see it." SHE out of all people went on to say he is an ELITIST. I think as the campaign has gone on, WE ALL KNOW what that is a code word for...

She is touched...

After making a complete fool of herself on Campbell Brown's show last night, I'm surprised Mrs. de Rothschild has ANYthing to say today - who cares anyway?

An elitist is someone whose state of MIND is that they’re better than the rest of us,”

Lady Lynn "MIND READER" Forrester de Rothschild!

You should know what I'm thinking about you now; so do it! DISAPPEAR!

Obama '08!!!

and where does she think Obama came from?

Lynn Forester de Rothschild Piddlesworth the Third took the silver spoon from her mouth long enough to claim that she is NOT an elitist.

...AND IM A TODDLER FROM ALASKA

McCAIN's AMBITION SHOWS HE IS FULL OF HIMSELF: In McCain's 2002 memoir, "Worth the Fighting For," he wrote,"I didn"t decide to run for president to start a national crusade for the political reforms I believed in or to run a campaign as if it were some grand act of patriotism. In truth, I wanted to be president because it had become my ambition to be president. . . . In truth, I"d had the ambition for a long time."

Blind, empty, raw ambition to be President. Just like Palin's blind empty ambition to be VP.

This chick...is another nut case. Like Palin Like follower.

Imagine...a rich out of touch elitist supporting McCain/Palin...who would have thunked it? But hey, the lipstick looks good!

Yea, right!!!!!!!!!!!
