Elton to sing for Hillary

March
25

Hillary Clinton is tapping the services of rock star Elton John  to help her raise campaign money.

According to a fundraising e-mail sent to supporters today, the artist responsible for such rock classics as “Rocket Man” and “Goodbye Yellow Brick Road,” will perform a solo concert for Clinton on April 9 in New York City. The e-mail does not give a venue for the show.

“We’re sending two supporters, along with their guests, to New York with VIP tickets for this very special, one-night-only concert,” Clinton writes in the e-mail.

Contributors will also get some quality time with the candidate.

“We will have a chance to talk just you and I—and you will get to meet Elton John at the party we’re throwing afterwards,” Clinton adds. “It’s going to be a great night”

    Sir Elton should do Crocodile Rock, or change it to Crocodile Crock for Hillary, based on her lie about being under fire overseas some years ago.

    This is the same Hillary who used to claim she was named after Sir Edmund Hillary. The problem was nobody had heard of him when she was born. He didn’t climb Mt. Everest until about 4 years later. Ooops.

    Thanks to King George, we got George Washington and more.

    Elton’s proclivities would make him a good Democrat, if he was American.

    Elton should plan on performing “Funeral for a Friend.” Fitting for Hillary’s presidential aspirations.

    Elton John & Billy Joel are the best ever, none are better. Although both are left on politics. (Too bad)
