Sherri Shepherd Still In Talks For The View


Sherri Shepherd announced today that she is STILL in talks to join The View as a permanest panelist. According to Access Hollywood Shepherd said today that "We're still in talks so hopefully you'll see me there in that chair in September." Last week, it was announced that Whoopi Goldberg would become the new moderator for the show and Sherri Shepherd, a frequent guest co-host, was nowhere in sight. You can read my article on this story and what Whoopi Goldberg means for The View here.

Pollspot: A Different Kind of Poll

Here's a different type of poll that we haven't seen courtesy of Political Wire.

From National Journal’s latest Political Insiders poll:

Who is your party’s most OVERRATED presidential candidate?

42% of Democratic insiders named John Edwards, while Barack Obama came
in a close second with 40%. The verbatim comments from some respondents were
particularly critical of Edwards.

58% of Republican insiders picked Fred Thompson. The next candidates
named were John McCain and Mitt Romney, both with only 14%.

Who is your party’s most UNDERRATED presidential candidate?

32% of Democratic insiders picked Gov. Bill Richardson with Sen. Joseph
Biden a close second with 28%, and Sen. Christopher Dodd at 22%.

46% of Republican insiders chose Mike Huckabee, with Mitt Romney in
second with 25%.


I was quite happy to not see Hillary's name mentioned in the overrated collumn. It's interesting that Barack Obama was so high up in the overrated column though I'm sure, as a frontrunner, she is 3rd most overrated though with Edwards and Obama making up about 82% of that question she really could not have scored too high which is definitely a plus for us Hillary fans. I definitely think Gov. Richardson is stealing Barack's thunder and will continue to see a rise in the polls and Kevin has a popular theory which could just pan out. On the GOP side, it was funny how Mitt Romney ranks in both overrated and underrated.

LOGO Presidential Forum Tonight

Watch tonight on Logo or Logo Online at 9 PM EST as 6 of the Democratic candidates for President including Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama participate in a forum dealing with GLBT (gay, lesbian, bisexual, transgender) issues.

Mr. Big is Back

The Green Room can confirm that Chris Noth will be joining Sarah Jessica Parker, Kim Cattrall, Cynthia Nixon, and Kristin Davis in the Sex and the City feature film. He will, of course, be reprising his role as Mr. Big (aka John), whom Carrie ended up with at the show's conclusion. The film will start shooting in New York this fall with a 2008 release date.

The one about beaches

A few beach related items. First, it's really, really hot in DC. I don't think I can go on without mentioning how hot it's been here. Heat indices of up to 112.

Beach news. An 8 ft Lego man washed up on the shore of a resort in the Netherlands. Blue shirt, red pants, yellow skin, with the words, "NO REAL THAN YOU ARE" on his chest. You know, the strong, silent type.

More beach, but beachwear. I don't know if this is the best or worst thing I've ever seen. John and Leah, you'll get a good laugh out of this. Wholesome Wear! Flattering swim wear for the beach. My favorite is the model(s). (Photo credit to Wholesome Wear)


Oh, those uber conservatives.
