Hillary Does Hollywood

Celebrities must be wetting themselves over several upcoming opportunities to rub elbows with Hillary Clinton, as well as the chance to throw money in her already bulging coffers. According to Variety, uber-left winger Rob Reiner is among those planning fundraisers in LaLa Land this fall, with the hope of getting over the losing streak the Democrats have been enduring.

All may not be the proverbial bed of roses, however.

If Clinton has a problem in Hollywood -- as conservative columnist Robert Novak claimed this summer -- it is with liberal activists who want a more vocal opponent of the Bush administration and the war in Iraq as the Democratic standard-bearer.

Apparently she's been too good of an actress--even by Hollywood standards--in her quest to look like a moderate. But "progressive" types need not worry. Hillary is not a moderate. She's just hoping the unwashed masses will fall for her act and vote for her in 2008.

Oh that's right, her only plan right now is to run for re-election as senator for New York. What was I thinking?
