[See NewsBusters for more.] If there’s any question that Hillary Clinton will have considerable help from celebrity liberals in the media, it was dispelled yet again on Wednesday. Ellen DeGeneres wondered if she could be Clinton’s vice president in a segment for the daytime TV show. The Democrat's appearance came as even the New York Times described the host as an open “political ally.” In a segment posted early on DeGeneres’s Youtube page, the host played a game in which she attempted to pick Clinton’s VP. A picture appeared of Michelle Obama and herself. In the photo, the TV star is saluting Clinton. DeGeneres gushed over the picture: “I don't know what that's from. But, anyway, so now you have to choose and obviously it's me.”
