We're barely into the first few weeks of the lead up to the 2008 election and already it feels like it's been months. By now we've been told by Newsweek's Howard Fineman that Barack Obama may be losing the Web war and Elizabeth Taylor has thrown her support behind Hillary Clinton. And, as everyone knows, Joseph Biden came out and insulted Obama and was forced to apologize a day later.

But no one has asked the obvious question: What does Morrissey think? Until now. In a cover story in this week's LA Weekly the former Smiths singer weighs in on some candidates and explains why Condoleezza Rice has a "Nazi face."

On Hillary Clinton: "[H]aven't we had enough of the Clintons? ... Of course, it would be great to see a female president, but not just anybody. I mean, I think that Hillary has had her shot. She's been around, she said a lot of silly things, and we don't really want a woman for the sake of any old woman."

On Barack Obama: "Outstanding ... Mesmerizing ... I think he [Obama] is mesmerizing, absolutely mesmerizing."

On Condoleezza Rice: "[S]he has the sag of cruelty about her face, her eyes, her mouth. The jowl of cruelty. She has a Nazi face. But in England, of course, we had Margaret Thatcher as prime minister, and she was diabolical. So, it isn't necessarily the case as long as the candidate's female."
