The Clinton campaign just sent out a release that reads, in part:

Legendary artist Sir Elton John will perform at a solo concert on behalf of Hillary Clinton's campaign on April 9, 2008 at Radio City Music Hall in New York. The event, called "Elton and Hillary: One Night Only," is Elton John's first public solo concert in New York City without his band since his solo concert at Madison Square Garden in October 2000.

"I'm not a politician but I believe in the work that Hillary Clinton does," said John. "I'm excited to support Hillary by performing at what will be a truly memorable night."

I trust Elton won't be singing, 'The Bitch Is Back.' I'm almost certain he won't be singing the classic hit. I love the song but it wouldn't be appropriate.

I do support Hillary and I don't view her as a bitch. Hardly!

What wealthy New York Clinton supporter can still legally buy the tickets without exceeding the $4600 campaign contribution limit?

I guess Obama will have to pull out the stops and have that other diva, Diana Ross, put on a concert on his behalf.

Who has the loudest cackle?

Oh, this is great! Elton is going international to support an American politician! I love them both.

Zach (not verified) says:

Diana Ross? No, I don't think so. Diana Ross is much too old for Obama's political base which is young and idealistic.

Obama's musical artist would most likely be young, and New Age, perhaps based in Sedona, Arizona. Half of Sedona is one big celestial choir, and the other half are massage therapists.

Obama's vision is creating 100,000 Sedona's. Good luck! Life will be wonderful with celestial choirs and message therapists.

I'm afraid Obama's pastor has sunk his candidacy. It appears that we will be seeing those awful videos ad nauseum from now until November.

So much for hope and change.

Elton John is an amazing musician and is well known world wide. Just because he is supporting Hillary and is putting on a show for her won't help her chances any. Barack Obama will prevail!!
