Ben Affleck and his spokesman aren’texactly batting down a report that the Argo director’s name has been floated for the Massachusetts Senate seat that Sen. John Kerry will vacate if President Obama chooses him to replace Hillary Clinton as Secretary of State.
Boston CBS station WBZ reported has reported that Massachusetts Democrats are seriously considering wooing Affleck to run for the seat. Before you write this off as crazy, note that Affleck is a noted liberal who has demonstrated wide knowledge on a range of issues on multiple occasions (see his appearances on Real Time with Bill Maher and marvel). In fact, on Wednesday, Affleck testified at a House Armed Services Committee hearing about security issues in the Democratic Republic of the Congo. (He’s the founder of the Eastern Congo Initiative and has spoken on the subject before. He’s picture above with Cindy McCain at the hearing.)
According to the Daily Caller, Affleck met with Kerry during his visit to Capitol Hill.
There’s also this to consider: Affleck’s publicist Shawn Sachs, who has worked with the actor for about five years, isn’t denying the report. When Movieline asked him to comment on the report, Sachs replied that he was with Affleck ”working on Congo efforts” and “That’s all we’re talking about today.”
Affleck said essentially the same thing when Politico caught up with him in Washington. “That’s not what I’m here to talk about….I’m here to talk about what role we can place in making the Eastern Congo a better place.”
Will it actually happen? Probably not. Though Affleck wouldn’t be stepping into the kind of minefield Ashley Judd would if her rumored interest in running for the…

File this under: I hope this leads to talking ice sculpture Cindy McCain writing her own Penthouse Letter.
John and Cindy McCain’s daughter Meghan McCain is in Playboy’s April issue (for reasons I’ll never know) and she kept her Republican titty balls to herself, but she did talk about how only peens are allowed up in her sugar walls. But before Meghan got into dick talk, she said that she overdosed on Xanax the day before the 2008 election and that she gained some chunk during the height of “Obamamania.” Meghan gained weight by gorging on Snickers while hanging out on her parents’ bed with her friends and that led to dick talk:
Watch it, mister. My friends from home came over to support me, and we got in my parents’ big bed. They have this huge California king and we just stayed up eating ice cream. I’m not a lesbian, if that’s what you’re asking. I’d be the first person to tell the world I was gay. I’m not private about anything. I think you should live how you should live. But I’m strictly dickly. I can’t help it. I love sex and I love men.
And that led to the interviewer asking about Meghan’s love for Rachel Maddow and Tila Tequila:
Honey, you’re nobody unless you have a gay rumor about you. I’ve been hit on by women from time to time, and it

Here’s Julianne Moore all dressed up in Sarah Palin drag for HBO’s Game Change, which started shooting today. Game Change is all about John McCain’s 2008 run for president from when he plucked Sarah Palin out of a bear rug’s mouth to when he lost against Obama. Ed Harris is playing McCain, Woody Harrelson is playing McCain’s senior campaign advisor and Melissa Farman is playing Bristol.
Yeah, yeah, yeah. The only thing I care about is who is playing my favorite pill-popping Republican ice queen goddess Cindy McCain?! I swear, if they screw up that casting… They better have cast a magnificent stone cold beauty with sparkling sapphire eyes like that of the silver-plated dolphin bracelet my third grade teacher always wore. You don’t know how many times my third grade teacher said, “Oh, my great aunt left it to me when she passed.” Ho, was your great aunt named Claire’s, because you know that’s where it came from!
Come to think of it, my third grade teacher’s dolphin bracelet should play Cindy McCain! Or Sandra Lee. One of those.
