Sex And The City's Cynthia Nixon In Sarasota Thursday For Campaign Event

The actress that portrays Miranda Hobbes in "Sex And The City" helps campaign for President Barack Obama at Sarasota event.

Sex and the City star Cynthia Nixon will be in Sarasota today to help get women to re-elect President Barack Obama.

Nixon will appear at the Obama For America office at 305 Gillespie Ave., off of Fruitville Road at 12:30 p.m., to talk about women's issues, according to the Sarasota County Democratic Club. The event is free and open to the public.

"President Obama has fought for women's rights and women's health — from cracking down on pay discrimination, to making sure women can get birth control and preventive care with no copay or deductible. This ongoing struggle to give women control over their own lives and equal opportunities for success is central to this election," said Rita Ferrandino, chairwoman of the Sarasota County Democratic Party.

"I urge all women concerned about these issues to attend this event," said Ferrandino.

Attendees can RSVP by emailing skunkel@ofafl.com.

She is also expected to appear in St. Petersburg and Safety Harbor for similar events.

Nixon has three children and is currently married to Christine Marinoni. The actress has also survived breast cancer and is active with the Susan G. Komen Foundation.

Nixon is set to play poet Emily Dickenson in A Quiet Passion, which is due out in 2013, according to Internet Movie Database.

You said it. If having loose, easy sex while the taxpayer provides birth control is the most important thing to women in this election then I have totally over-estimated their collective intellect. However, I think more women are worried about the economy and the prices of food, fuel and clothing for their families.

Some tribes in Sudan and Senegal http://www.coachoutletonlinexc.net/ Coach Factory Outlet have an average height of 6-foot-6, which also happens to be the size of the average NBA player. People in Nigeria, http://www.louisvuittonoutletam.net/ Louis Vuitton Purses Mali and Congo tend to be very big and physical. We need to build a strategy to go into these regions http://www.coachoutletstoreze.com/ Coach Factory Outlet and cultivate the talent through infrastructure and instruction.Not long ago, soccer in Africa was almost http://www.guccibeltsoutletds.net/ Gucci Belts the same way.

Mark, this simply makes absolutely no sense at all. Matter of fact, It's 'safer' to back into a spotRead More than pulling forward. Mark, prior to backing in a spot, you already have a full visual of in front of you. Then, as you go to leave,. it's much safer to pull out, than to back out. Mark, you have this wrong pal and I'd love to see the data which lead you to believe that it's dangerous to back into a spot, versus pulling into it. I'm going to challenge you on this one Mark, and will do so when I go to court when I purposely get a ticket.

Does the convenience of reading a license plate supersede the safety of backing in and then headingRead More out?
Bill June 17, 2013 at 01:56 pm
Maybe not. I agree on the safety issue. The question needs to be, does the need of the police to beRead More able to read the plates supersede the safety concern? To be sure, there will be the usual crowd complaining about government (any government) intrusion, yada, yada, but that's the point that needs to be settled. If the police would agree that seeing the plates isn't necessary, then the entire issue would go away.

Try accepting that it was their time to go. No matter the way or the time, what will be will be.Read More It's not about blaming or getting "justice", death always happens when it is meant to...there are no accidents, only the circumstances and means that come into play to assist the transition of those who are leaving this world, in order for them to reach the next. Your grief is understandable, I am sorry for your great loss.
