OK, here’s where they stand, a small sampling:

Clinton
Merle Haggard
Elton John
Janet Jackson
Madonna
Barry Manilow
Ricky Martin
Barbra Streisand

Obama
Bruce Springsteen
Arcade Fire
Kim Gordon
Russell Simmons

Oh and non-musicians, she has Jack Nicholson, but he has Robert De Niro. She has Jerry Springer, and he has Oprah. Not that I’m not a fan of talk shows or Oprah, particularly, but Jerry Springer? I would be surprised to hear that most Jerry Springer watchers even vote.

There is just no contest, cool-wise.

What brought this on was the news of Ricky Martin’s endorsement. Last awesome presidential candidate that he spoke up for was GWB in 2000. Great company to keep, Hills.
