It seems like the A list celebrity is really the winner this election year. No matter what they say, positive or negative, the best way to get free promotion in 2008 is to have Obama or McCain mention your name in the press.
Lets start with Messy Jesse Jackson. He needed some exposure seeing that Obama is what is black and cool these days, so he calls Obama the N-word.
This was free exposure for him and his son. Maybe he can write a book about it or get paid a couple of hundred thousand in his next speaking engagement.
Britney Spears and Paris Hilton received free exposure as McCain compared Obama's new found celebrity to the two bimbos. Britney used it to garner attention for her 14th comeback since becoming a coke whore psycho, and Paris struck back in her own ad and called McCain an old man.
Toby Keith concurred that the world likes Obama because he talks like a Caucasian. I'm thinking "really Toby, have you heard how you speak? If Obama is speaking like a Caucasian you must speak like something alien because you sound a hot ass mess."
Ludacris came out with some ass backwards rap attack and garnered attention for his upcoming project, and now the Queen of Pop, Madonna, has started a heated battle more intense than her last botox session with McCain just in time for her new world tour.
Also, it seems the coolest fashion pieces in Hollywood these days have an image of Obama on the front. I never witnessed a time where so many celebs were supporting one candidate this much.
Anyways...Here is something to read up on as far as Madonna VS McCain.

The campaign of John McCain went head-to-head with Madonna today after the 50-year-old pop diva appeared to compare the Republican candidate to Hitler and Robert Mugabe.
Madonna, who kicked off her “Sticky and Sweet” world tour at the Millennium Stadium in Cardiff yesterday, made the swipe during a performance of Get Stupid, when Mr McCain’s image was flashed up alongside images of the Führer and Zimbabwean dictator, as well as destruction and global warming.
In a none-too-subtle contrast, Barack Obama was bracketed in a subsequent sequence alongside Mahatma Gandhi, John Lennon and Al Gore.
A McCain campaign spokesman, Tucker Bounds, condemned the segment. “The comparisons are outrageous, unacceptable and crudely divisive all at the same time,” Mr Bounds said.
“It clearly shows that when it comes to supporting Barack Obama, his fellow worldwide celebrities refuse to consider any smear or attack off limits."
The McCain campaign has recently been keen to portray Mr Obama as a celebrity, underpinning what it says is his lack of depth and experience.
In one McCain attack advert, the Democratic candidate is juxtaposed with Britney Spears and Paris Hilton. The latter was quick to make a spoof ad of her own, lampooning Mr McCain as an old man.
Madonna is no stranger to controversy on tour. In 2006 she staged a mock crucifixion only a few miles from the Vatican during the "Confessions" tour.
The Madonna tour is her first since striking a deal with the concert promoter Live Nation Inc, which is worth an estimated $120 million over 10 years. The partnership gives Live Nation a stake of future music and music-related business she generates, including touring, merchandising and albums.
