Steven Spielberg has spoken. The Hillary Clinton campaign announced today that he “has chosen to endorse Clinton because of her experience and strength.”

Earlier this year, Spielberg flirted with Barack Obama as his Dreamworks partners, David Geffen and Jeffrey Katzenberg, raised funds for him and Geffen raised the roof by calling the Clintons world-class liars.

But Spielberg’s long friendship with the Clintons has kept him in the fold. His emphasis on Hillary’s “strength” comes from someone whose first assignment as a fledgling director was to work with the toughest diva of them all, Joan Crawford, with whom he became lifelong friends.

Anybody who could charm “Mommie Dearest” knows a strong woman when he sees one.
