Back to the Lincoln bedroom

Ted Danson is one of Hollywood’s biggest fans of the Clintons.

“They’re our best friends,” he said of him and his wife, actress Mary Steenburgen. “I’m madly in love with the Clintons.”

So does he look forward to another sleepover in the Lincoln bedroom, should Hillary Clinton get elected? “It is incredibly impressive,” he said. “It is a rare treat. … The actual sleeping is like sleeping in a gymnasium. It’s not that much fun. It’s so huge.

“It’s Camp David that I really want.”

We also caught up with Danson at Wednesday’s Washington Press Club Foundation dinner, so we had to ask how he thinks the campaign will turn out.

 “I honestly have no idea,” he said. “We’re both just so emotionally invested in her.”

It was then that Danson saw Miss America and bluntly asked us, “Why are you talking to me when Miss America is here! Priorities, boy!”
