“We are already seeing Clinton supporters moving over,” Andy Spahn, who works as a political adviser for DreamWorks founders Steven Spielberg, Jeffrey Katzenberg, and David Geffen, told PolitickerCA.com.

Spahn also said the trio – each of whom has given extensively to the Democratic Party over the years -- would be holding a fundraiser for Obama in the near future.

It’s not the first big-name Hollywood fundraiser for Obama’s general election effort. The Illinois senator is scheduled to swoop into Los Angeles for a June 24 fundraiser at the Los Angeles Music Center, whose chairman, John Emerson, is a longtime Clinton supporter who served as Deputy Assistant to President Clinton. Attendees to the event will have the option of giving $2,300 to Obama or $28,500 to a joint campaign and Democratic National Committee account.

There is a chance that Kentucky’s Democratic presidential primary May 20 primary could be relevant, if the race between Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama actually goes all the way to the convention in August. Actor/Director George Clooney, an Obama supporter, will be in Maysville, Kentucky (population 8,993) tonight for the premier of his new film, Leatherheads. And on Tuesday, former President Bill Clinton will also visit Maysville (population 8,993) to campaign for his wife.
