George Clooney’s Celebrity Gets in His Way

George Clooney has been looking a bit worried lately. The “Ocean’s” star did some campaigning for John Kerry back when the Massachusetts senator ran for president. Now Clooney wants to give an assist to his favorite candidate for president this time around —Barack Obama.

But he says if a big-name celebrity like himself campaigns for Obama, it might hurt the candidate’s chances as much as it might help, especially when Obama’s rival, John McCain, has been hitting him with the celebrity hammer.

Clooney may have found a way, though, to raise some cash for Obama by using his fame yet still keeping things low key.

How? By going overseas.

Clooney’s going to be the draw at an Obama fundraiser in of all places, Geneva, Switzerland.

he event will take place at the swanky home of one of the members of Obama’s national finance committee. If you happen to be in Switzerland, you can get tickets for 1,000 bucks.

You can even attend a reception with Clooney, but that dinner will cost you 10 grand.

Watch for a trend in which Hollywood celebrities jet off to exotic places and use their famous faces to help Democrats win their political races.
