There’s no real organization in place yet, not even a rudimentary website.
Going by the formal-sounding name Voices for a Senate Majority, the group
has already signed agreements with a half-dozen Democratic challengers
— Maine’s Tom Allen, Alaska’s Mark Begich, Minnesota’s Al Franken, New
Hampshire’s Jeanne Shaheen and cousins Tom and Mark Udall from, respectively,
New Mexico and Colorado — and is pledging a minimum of $100,000 to each
of their campaigns.
The idea started with alums of the Hollywood Women’s Political Committee,
a Reagan-era power PAC that included Jane Fonda, Kate Capshaw, Penny
Marshall, Daryl Hannah, Laura Dern, Sarah Jessica Parker and others.
The political action committee disbanded shortly after raising $4 million
for Bill Clinton’s 1996 reelection campaign. Following some recent informal
reunions, former HWPC members brought along friends, and soon the gatherings
grew to include dozens of new activists, all concerned about the Senate
vetting process that might determine future nominees to the Supreme Court.

Barack Obama held two star-studded events in his honor in Beverly Hills
on Tuesday.
The first was a $28,500-per-plate dinner at the landmark Greystone Mansion
attended by some bold-faced names, including Tobey McGuire, Leonardo DiCapro
Jodie Foster and Chris Rock.
The second, a $2,500-per-ticket fund-raiser at the glamorous Regent Beverly
Wilshire included performances by Ben Harper and Barbara Streisand.
Among the crowd was Sarah Silverman and Ron Howard, who enjoyed the desserts
and an open bar in between cracking jokes about the GOP's Sarah Palin
and John McCain. Laura Dern watched her husband (Ben Harper) perform,
but stood atop her chair when Obama made his entrance.
Together, the events raised an estimated $9 million for the Democratic
presidential nominee.
