Chelsea Clinton walks into a gay bar...

Two gay bars actually. Clinton campaigned for her mother at JR's and Sue Ellen's in Dallas last night. Gloria Steinem and Rob Reiner were also there to tout the former first lady to the local gay community. The crowd of mostly men at JR's went nuts when Chelsea Clinton got up on the stage.

The enthusiastic response prompted the best line of the night, from Chelsea Clinton: "I did actually have someone propose to me earlier this week although he was a Ron Paul supporter. I told him if he really loved me, he would support my mother."

Chelsea Clinton will speak to students at Texas Christian University in Fort Worth this morning. The event is scheduled to start at 10 a.m. at the Brown-Lupton Student Center at 2855 Main Drive. Chances are, she will say very similar things to what she said at other events.

Hillary endorsed by both openly gay members of Congress

Both openly-gay members of Congress have now endorsed Hillary Clinton for the Democratic presidential nomination.

The New York senator secured the support of Tammy Baldwin, the Wisconsin congresswoman who is the only out lesbian in the House, months ago. And this week Clinton gained the enthusiastic endorsement of House Financial Services Committee Chairman Barney Frank, the only out gay man currently serving in the chamber.
