Wes Clark meets with (wait for it...) Madonna!!
Just saw this on Judy Woodruff's Inside Politics (CNN). Here's the best transcription I can muster, thanks to the miracle that is Tivo:

"A presidential hopeful meets the Material Girl. There is word today from Wesley Clark's campaign of a meeting between the Democratic candidate and Madonna. Clark's Communications Director, Matt Bennett (sp?), says that Clark and Madonna met for about 40 minutes on Sunday at the entertainer's mansion in Los Angeles to discuss the issues surrounding the campaign. Bennett says that the candidate would be delighted if Madonna hosted a fundraiser for Clark; but, he said, no such event was discussed at the meeting."

Hmmmm... interesting. Now, maybe she'll grow a spine and air the original version of her "American Life" video stateside?

1. and what does Mrs. Clark say about this?
I saw her once, and she doesn't seem like the type to put up with much. Hope Clark behaves himself! :evilgrin:

3. Not likely.
That is, that Madonna will grow a spine and show the American Life video stateside. I think she's too into the childrens' book thing now.

4. Mrs Clark better watch out.
But my respect for Clark just rose after I heard about this conversation.

7. At the very least, Clark could use some Madonna Money.
She's got lots and lots of it. I do hope she decides to host a fundraiser for one of the Dem frontrunners, that's for sure!!

9. She does have a sizable network
If she would host a fundraiser for Clark, it would bring in lots of cash. She has built up a large social network over the years.

8. "People Who Slept With Dennis Rodman" Constituency

Clark may be onto something. That could be a huge untapped source of votes!
