Former vice president Al Gore (news - web sites) may be supporting Howard Dean (news - web sites), but retired army general Wesley Clark (news - web sites) has support in his quest for the Democratic Party's presidential nomination from ... Madonna (news - web sites).

The Material Girl on Tuesday publicly threw her support behind the retired four-star general, one of nine Democrats seeking to replace George W. Bush in the November 2004 election.

"I endorse him because I think he's a great guy," the pop superstar said on CNN Tuesday. "I think he's a natural born leader."

Madonna believes that because of his military experience Clark "knows how to deal with pressure," and as the former NATO (news - web sites) supremo "has a good handle in foreign policy."

Clark spokesman Jamal Simmons was star-struck by the endorsement.

"We have a superstar supporting a four star," he quipped.

Madonna organized a dinner for Clark at her Los Angeles residence in November, when he was in town raising funds for his presidential bid, Simmons said.

Well I guess Clark has the nut and slut vote just about locked up.

great..a "performer" that lives in England is trying to tell us how to vote. Hasn't her citizenship been revoked yet???

[matrix2225]

Glad to hear the Dimo heavyweight intellectuals are finally taking sides. HAH!

[narses]

That's good, very good. That defines 29.764% of the left wing vote. Stupid and criminal makes up the rest.

I thought she had an "anything" fetish. Emphasis on "thing".

[little jeremiah]

Made for each other.
I can't it, though - I keep snickering.

I wonder if Clark is secretly sorry about it?

[anonymous_user]

Madonna says Clark has best chance to get Bush in '04.

"Mary, what's my position?"

[blackbart.223]

"Quite fitting, that she should endorse a p*ssy."

Or at the very least, an idiot.

[little jeremiah]

ROTFLOL!!! Beautiful!

(there must be a very high percentage of Freeper geniuses!)

[Mad_Tom_Rackham]

It's a tossup now, for who's going to get the dumb slut vote - Kucinich or Clark.

Hold on now. We haven't heard from the Ditzy Crabs yet.

"I can't stand that lady."

What lady?! Madonna must think we all have short memories or something. When she came out with her first, and rather revolting and trashy book, 'Sex', I took all of the CD's I had purchased by her and sold them to a used CD store. It was as if she'd gone completely off the deep end in the early '90s. The 'Sex' and domatrix-phase nearly destroyed her career then. It's rather tongue in cheek that she's writing childrens' books-and faking an English accent at that.

He's right on course. LOL!!!

I surprised she didn't go for Kerry given how she loves to use the F word.
