And I guess no one wants to vacation with McCain even though his wife has a private plane.

George Clooney and Sir Paul McCartney have topped a poll of stars people would most like to take a vacation with.

Pop superstar Madonna, U.S. presidential candidate Barack Obama, celebrity chef Gordon Ramsay and Angelina Jolie also make the top ten, voted for by 1,000 travellers and compiled by luxury travel company Pivr.co.uk.

Company boss James Robinson explains the choices: "These stars are much more than just celebrities. They have talents; are philanthropists; have interesting and complex lives and enough anecdotes to keep anyone interested during a dinner party."

The top ten is as follows:

1: George Clooney

2: Sir Paul McCartney

3: Barack Obama

4: Madonna

5: Gordon Ramsay

6: Angelina Jolie

7: Dame Helen Mirren

8: Hugh Laurie

9: Nelson Mandela

10:daniel Craig.

1. Obama would be on my top five list as well
Likeable, intelligent, and down to earth and honest. He's exactly what our country needs right now.

2. That's a much better question than who you'd like to have a beer with.
He'd be in my top 5 also.

3. Gordon Ramsay?
Really? That seems like a nightmare of a vacation. I realize it's a UK poll, but still -- Ramsay?

4. No one wants to go on vacation with McCain? No one wants
to get called a c*nt or a fucking jerk on the beach? I find this very hard to believe.

5. You know what this says? Obama is going to be showered with
huge numbers of people on his trip to the UK. Can't wait to see the love !
