Famous Hollywood film producer and director, Steven Spielberg, has decided to endorse US Senator Hilary Rodham Clinton for the democratic nomination for President in 2008.

Barack Obama seems to have been a Hollywood favorite, which in turn created some tension in Hollywood, since the industry appears to have close ties to Hilary and of course former President Bill Clinton. 

In February, billionaire mogul David Geffen, and former Hilary ally, decided to extend his support out to Obama.  Geffen helped sponsor a fundraiser worth $1 million dollars for Obama.  Speilberg actually helped co-sponsor this event, which brought in $1.3 million dollars for Obama. 

In recent weeks, however, Spielberg has turned his favor towards Clinton as he, along with television mogul Haim Saban, hosted a beautiful reception for Senator Clinton at the home of News Corporation President Peter Chernin.  Together, with another celebrity filled event, a total of around $1.1 million dollars was raised for Clinton.   

Many will agree that Hollywood plays a crucial rule in influencing how the people vote.  Therefore, many believe that with this strong source of support, Clinton will enter the race with great momentum.
