Obama has apologized for that Nancy Reagan seance comment today. But  did Nancy Reagan do seances? Nope, seances weren’t Nancy Reagan’s style. Rather, Nancy used astrology, claimed Donald T. Regan.

Regan claimed that Nancy Reagan used an astrologer to plan Ronald Reagan’s schedules. President Reagan, however, made it clear by saying said “no policy or decision in my mind has ever been influenced by astrology.”

So did anyone do seances in the White House? (Yes, this sounds like a Double Jeopardy question.)

As AP reports, it was Hillary Clinton as Former First Lady who was accused of being a fan of the seance. A Bob Woodward book said Clinton had someone help her get in contact with Eleanor Roosevelt. “Newsweek magazine, which was promoting the book, characterized the visits as “seances,” a term that White House officials disputed.”

Miguel D. Lausell and Luchy Secaira are endorsing John McCain. Both Miguel Lausell and Luchy Secaira are former Hillary Clinton top reps / supporters but now endorsing John McCain.

Miguel D. Lausell, former Senior Political Adviser to Hillary Clinton, and Clinton Delegate-at-Large Luchy Secaira, are clear about one thing - they are not pledging support for Barack Obama.

Lausell said the following:

“John McCain has a long record of reforming government and working across the aisle to achieve bipartisan results. His courageous leadership is exactly what we need in the White House, and I am convinced that John McCain is the right leader at the right time for our nation.”

The two join Lynn Forester de Rothschild who also is jumping from Clinton to McCain as recently reported by LALATE.

No comment by either camp tonight to the announcement.

Joe Biden to Quit October 5th and be replaced by Hillary Clinton, is the huge rumor online tonight. The Biden to quit October 5th rumor and replaced by Hillary Clinton is not a new rumor, but today’s getting more speed.

Why?

The perhaps ridiculous rumor is pointing to the above items among other reasons. Above you will see on the left a button for Biden and Obama, and on the right a banner / lawn sign for Biden Obama.

One of the basis of the rumor is that there is very little or no Obama Biden merchandise being produced by the Obama camp on barackobama.com.

True or False?

There is some. But very little.

If you look at the store section of the website, there are approximately 16 categories of about 4 to five items. Of the approximately 60 to 70 total items to buy in the Obama store, virtually only 11 are Obama Biden items, and simply buttons and signs, the cheapest items on the website ranging $2 to $4. Try finding a Obama Biden t-shirt, hat, clothing on the site, you will have difficulty.

The rumor mill claims that Biden will be replaced promptly by Hillary Clinton for “health reasons”.

The Palin Biden debate is at Washington University on October 2.

Lynn Forester de Rothschild is endorsing John McCain. Lynn Forester de Rothschild (aka Hillraiser), a top Hillary Clinton supporter and DNC member, will not give an endorsement to Barack Obama but to John McCain on Wednesday morning, says reports coming in late tonight.

Forester was not just a top Clinton supporter but a member of the DNC, specifically the Democratic National Committee’s Platform Committee. Forester made the revelation late Tuesday night to CNN and will announce her endorsement public on the Capitol steps in a highly television event Wednesday.

Lynn Foreseter de Rothschild doesn’t stop with just pledging her support to John McCain. Reportedly she will join his campaign in a yet unannounced capacity.

Over the summer, Forester earned the title as Hillraiser for the amount of money she raised for Clinton. But when Clinton was out and Obama in, Lynn was public about her dislike for Barack Obama.

Forester is head of EL Rothschild, a conglomerate with international holdings.

No comment yet tonight from either Clinton or McCain about the announcement coming tomorrow.

VIDEO! Here’s the hard to find SNL video of TINA FEY as Sarah Palin! Tina Fey as Sarah Palin rocked Saturday Night Live SNL amid Fey - Palin reports even hours before broadcast that Tina had not yet officially signed on to do the role.

But LALATE readers knew otherwise.

LALATE told you last week that despite suggesting that Tina Fey had not yet signed on for a return, Fey would in fact appear for the season opener of SNL.

And she did.

Fey’s appears with “Weekend Update” co-host Amy Poehler as Sen. Hillary Clinton.

Tina Fey as Sarah Palin was hilarious. Fey was part of SNL for over nine years including often head writer. Recently the show had said she would have to play Sarah Palin since the “whole nation” had casted her already in the role.

Watch the very hard to find Tina Fey as Sarah Palin video below. LALATE also has all the other sketches from last night.
