Eva Longoria on the Obama Campaign Trail

November 02, 2012 Politix

As we enter the home stretch of the 2012 presidential campaign, Eva Longoria is hard at work as Co-Chair of President Barack Obama’s re-election campaign -- and she’s enjoying every minute of it.

“Being a co-chair is this… being in a tent, being in a rally, phone banks. It’s not very glamorous. It's a civic duty that I really enjoy,” Longoria told “Extra' while campaigning in Nevada.

Eva continued, “There's a thousand reasons why I support the president. I support him because I'm a woman, because I'm a Latina. But also because I'm an American.”
 

The “Desperate Housewives” actress said she is not lobbying for a spot in President Obama’s cabinet, but joked, “I'm going to be Ambassador to Costa Rica, so I can go drink piña coladas! No, I'm kidding!”

As far what the final five days of the election are for Eva, she said, “They are absolute madness, we are actually in the mode of voter turnout.”

Eva's a rich loud mouth who knows her lifestyle will not be affected with Obama back in office. She's looking out for her millions.

I have lost all respect for this woman. I don't support President Obama because I am a woman and I am an American.

Please, keep politrics out your programing. I am tired of the ongoing Obama campaigns. Remember that Republicans alike do watch for entertainment of celebrities who do celebrity stuff Not politics. Politics is a very personal thing. Every time you advertised Obama you are BIAS and that is Not fair. It is a Monopoly, and it is clear that all the answers have been wrong from Obama. He has divided de country in such a way that is pathetic. But wait, all of you have money and do get affected by it

This kind of programs should be keeping themselves out of politics and promoting Democrats only. Your televiewers are a mix of Republicans, democrats and others. So, please make it pleasurable. This programs used to be the only place we did not have to watch politics ... you are loosing audience because of your bias in politics.

Eva has no clue!! I am a average lower middle class American and know we will not benefit from having Obama as President for another four years! He has put us deeper in debit and jobs have not gotten any better! I have a college bill of 30,000 for a associate degree as a medical assit., and they want to pay you 9.36 an hour! These movies stars have no clue living in their mansions, expensive cars, etc.... The government, corporations, and the rich worry about each other and stand up giving their speech of lies, while off stage laughing to the bank! The Obama care is a joke.... I just make enough to keep a roof over our head and food in our mouth! I don't need someone telling me that if I don't have health insurance I will be fined. And with as much help as our country needs why is it we give our money to other countries? Did any country come to our aid and help financial when 9/11 happened? I am sad, disappointed, and embarrassed! Movie stars keep standing up there and talk your talk, cause its your words and not the average Americans words!!
