The political parties are a conspiracy to keep people right where they are, going nowhere and wasting their energy. All the leadership knows this, as did Steve, his wife, and anyone of real influence.

Laurene is a blatant opportunist, and this site obviously "leans forward".
How's that?
Please keep this out of MR. This has nothing to do with any Rumors or Apple at all other than the woman being married to Steve.
In other news, the Jobs family goldfish dies......

Ehh, who's to say the Clintons aren't the ones being opportunists?

Seemed to be tech news when their house was recently burglarized.
What. People are mad because Steve's wife is a Democrat ?
Waa.Waa. Get over it .
Wow.
I'm glad she is.

I disagreed with that being a Front Page news story or a story on here at all really. MR is really losing my respect here lately.
What he does in his spare time is his own problem
That guy gave the country the best economy it ever had, and a surplus
I wish I can reelect him instead of the two losers
I think it is stupid for the widow of a billionaire to support a candidate who would love nothing more than to tax it more and more!
But it was fine for that billionaire and for this woman when she wasn't a widow before he was dead? I think it's stupid to assume that people should want to hold onto their own money rather than look out for their own country's welfare.
And why would you think this to be stupid of her? Many billionaires and millionaires are willing to pay more taxes and do support this candidate.
No, most people in here are complaining about a political event being on front page when it has nothing to do with Apple other than Steve's wife being at the event.
It only causes arguments.
I hope Laurene becomes a voice in the political/business/education/liberal arts/tech community like how Steve was. I'm not saying like new product intros and trade shows, but she could have a twitter and do her thing (seems like education and politics are big for her).
She seems genuinely intriguing, a bit reserved, and obviously she must be good people if she loved Steve enough to marry him!

I must have missed something - was there a Mac or an iPhone or something mentioned in this story? I sure couldn't find it.
Why does anyone care what political party Steve Jobs or his wife participated in?

It's not the "ability to afford it" that is the problem. It's the principal. Mr. Obama and all of his DEMONcratic cronies need to learn to control spending instead of stealing more money from the people!
MacRumors? Focusing on Rumors? Nah, won't do it. We all know that stalking the Jobs family like the paparazzi is why sites like MR are popular
#1, Yes, it probably would be.
#2, Steve was a bit of a political schizophrenic. His wife was always a very active liberal, but Steve was not outwardly involved in politics. As a grown up California Hippy it only makes sense that he identified with liberal social politics, but as a businessman he clearly didn't identify with democratic economic policies.
Really I think he was like most modern Americans, socially liberal but fiscally conservative. Sadly, neither political party embodies these sentiments.
