Barbara Streisand Urges Clinton Supporters to Open Wallets
ABC News’ Eloise Harper Reports: After music icon and actress Barbara Streisand declared her support for Sen. Hillary Clinton, D-N.Y., Tuesday, the Clinton campaign emailed supporters a letter from Streisand asking for money.
"In all the time I have worked to help elect Democrats, I have never wanted to win an election as badly as this one," the letter reads.
Streisand has been a close friend of the Clinton’s, dating back to the days when former President Bill Clinton was in office and she would stay in the Lincoln bedroom.
A longtime supporter of the Clinton’s, Streisand’s endorsement may not come as a surprise to many.
But her backing comes as talk-show queen Oprah Winfrey prepares to campaign for Clinton’s rival — Sen. Barack Obama, D-Ill.

We have plumbers, electricians, teachers, preachers, TV peersonalities all with opinions on who they would like to see as the next President, so I am delighted to see a well informed, cultured woman like Ms. Streisand take her stand for the person whom she believes will best lead us. Ain’t America politics almost great.

Babbs should get yet another nose job for putting it in the wrong place once again.
