Alla:

Yep. I think she is entitled to her opinion and that she was just 
offering one. I don't think she is obligated to keep her opinion to 
herself, just because she is such an influential person .

Personally, I don't need anybody to tell me whom to vote for(I 
decided that long time ago), but I am kind of happy that her opinions 
and mine are the same on that subject.
