...this point, Hollywood's Democrats are being relatively discreet in announcing their favorites. While Hillary Clinton certainly has a devoted following in town - although her stand on Iraq has alienated some - Obama has a fresh-face appeal. Former Vice President Al Gore, who's beloved by the Hollywood environmental community, is also someone with lots of fans.
