Scarlett O'Bama

Mr. Geffen of Hollywood has a high "level of disappointment in the behavior of America". He wants to bring the country together and has dumped the Clintons this time round. Hillary is polarizing and:

“I don’t think anybody believes that in the last six years, all of a sudden Bill Clinton has become a different person.”

Sounds like a little disappointment in the behavior of Bill and Hill.

So whO is the anOinted One (he picked so well last time)?

Enter the great Barack. Here's Maureen Dowd:

Barack Obama has made an entrance in Hollywood unmatched since Scarlett O’Hara swept into the Twelve Oaks barbecue. Instead of the Tarleton twins, the Illinois senator is flirting with the Dreamworks trio: Mr. Geffen, Steven Spielberg and Jeffrey Katzenberg, who gave him a party last night that raised $1.3 million and Hillary’s hackles.

Barack compared to Scarlett. The mind reels.

But Scarlett's most memorable phrase was "I'll think about it tomorrow", so it makes a certain amount of sense applied to the Big O'Bama, who has yet to come up with a plan on anything. He strikes me as more of a posturing Ashley Wilkes though.

But who can tell? Obama has himself said running a national campaign will be much like running the country. Win Hollywood and you win the world! Things are heating up, as he who claims the mantle of Lincoln dares to taunt Hillary about the Lincoln Bedroom.
