First of all, I want to say hi! to all my friends and fans in Las Vegas and around the world that are so kind to check in to  VCO each month to read my column and send good wishes.

I am doing fine and finally getting settled in New Orleans.  It's been a difficult transition because of the storms but things are finally getting back to normal.

As I suspected, I was once again greeted here with open minds and open hearts.  These folks have been warm and wonderful and I have already been featured on the front page of the local newspaper and am preparing for my own TV show here on the Fox affiliate and getting ready to premier my singing act, The Gennifer Flowers Show,  at the legendary Chris Owens Club at Bourbon and St. Louis streets in the New Orleans French Quarter.  For more info please go to my website:  genniferflowers.com and click on engagements.

How about this election?  Very interesting, huh?  While I have been unpacking boxes and working on my singing act, I have also been paying attention to this on going soap opera like saga called the presidential campaign. I have been around a long time and have followed many elections over the years, but this seems to be the one at which most is at stake.  I just did an interview for FoxNews.com and I couldn't honestly say who for whom I would vote. 

Now, just because I think that Sarah Palin is sexy and smart and pretty much  the "whole female package" doesn't mean that I will vote republican.  As I have said in the past in reference to Hillary Clinton, I would really like to be able to be loyal to my gender.  BUT HAVEN'T THE REPUBLICANS SCREWED UP ENOUGH?!  Both parties scare me to death these days.  It's evident that most public officials are out for themselves and to hell with the public that put them in office.

And what about Barack Obama?  Who knows much about this man except that he has a gift for gab.  Doesn't that remind you people of someone else that was full of beans?  You know who I'm talking about, right?  If not, here's another hint...  "I had a twelve year relationship with the man that is full of beans." Well, Barack reminds me a great deal of him both in the B.S. department and the amount of initial political experience. 

I can tell you that this Lipstick Republican will rise and shine on election day, place my shapely derrière on my pink heart shaped tufted bench, take out my hot Chanel  "election day red" lip gloss, apply it and then silently pray that when I go into that voting booth, the good Lord will guide my hand when I punch the button because only he knows who can ultimately be good for our country. 

God bless America!

Kisses, Gennifer Flowers
