| She's "livin' la vida loca" -- Ricky Martin endorses Hillary! |
| 2008-05-29 |
| Today, the Clinton campaign announced the endorsement of Puerto Rican "These elections will have historic repercussions both in the United States and the world. Senator Clinton has always been consistent in her commitment with the needs of the Latino community. Whether fighting for better education, universal health care and social well-being, as First Lady and Senator from New York — representing millions of Latinos —she has always fought for what is most important for our families," said the 5-time Grammy award winning artist. "If elected president, she'll make you take your clothes off and go dancing in the rain./She'll make you live her crazy life but she'll take away your pain/like a bullet to your brain." "I am honored to have Ricky Martin's support," said Senator Clinton. "Guess that means I'm livin' la vida loca, even though my lips aren't devil red and my skin's not the color of mocha!" "In addition to his great talent, Ricky is committed to improving the world through his philanthropic work, and I am grateful for his support. He is a very important voice in Martin joins other figures — including Madonna, star of the classic films Shanghai Surprise, Dick Tracy, and Body of Evidence Elizabeth Taylor, Eva Longoria, Who? Jack Nicholson, "Heeeeer's Hillary!" America Ferrera, the sort-of-cute girl who plays Ugly Betty Barbra Streisand, queen moonbat Elton John, Michael Douglas, Robert Kennedy Jr., Quincy Jones the most talented of the bunch and Magic Johnson, among others — in support of Hillary Clinton. Looks like Hillary! has a commanding lead in the Clear-Channel-greatest-hits-of-the-Nineties-and-today demographic. With Obama locking up the influential lesbian folk singer and Pink Floyd headbanger endorsements, the nomination may be decided by which candidate polls better among disco nostalgics and Big-Hair-Eighties fans. We'll be back with more music right after this . . . . |

| #15 The dems will be fighting for Puerto Rico, that is why this matters. In the General Election not so much. |

| #12 So who has the "old-white-gun-totin-bible-reading-copenhagen-spittin-NASCAR-watching-military-veteran-guy" endorsesment? I'm gonna take a wild guess and say "McCain." Whilst Gogling about to find links for my inline comments, I learned that John Mayer appears to be a Ron Paul fanatic. I guess that means the Tinfoil/Libertarian third-party ticket will carry the critical sorority-girls-who-like-sensitive-soft-voiced-singer-songwriters demographic in a landslide. Since I'm from Northeast Ohio, I can't help but wonder, if Frankie Yankovic were still alive, who would he endorse? |

| #5 This endoresment makes sense since Obama has connections to Muslims who tend to think gays should be put down. |

| #2 I'm so confused about what to do now. Some of the leading intellectuals in Hollywood say I must vote for Hillary, others say I must vote for Obama. Since I am unable to think for myself, and must rely on my betters to decide for me, what am I to do? /sarcasm |
