Margaret Cho, a Hillary Clinton supporter, says she’s got a "crush" on Bernie Sanders.

“I am in Hillary’s corner,” the comedienne told Larry King on his show, “PoliticKING,” on Thursday, “although I have a little crush on Bernie Sanders. I think he’s kind of great.”

Cho told King that it’s not the married Democratic presidential candidate’s looks that hooked her, but rather, “I think he’s very much about telling the truth. He’s really talking about like, how this is all a race about money. It's just billionaires kind of comparing who's got the most money, and that’s actually true when you think about the presidential race.”

Despite her "crush," the outspoken entertainer and LGBT rights activist said she’s “long been” a fan of Clinton: “I had a hard time sort of deciding between Hillary and Obama. I did go to the Obama camp eventually. But Hillary is great.”

Cho, 46, added of Sanders’ political rival, “Hillary's already been president for eight years. So she always knows the job. So she’s cool.”

The Vermont senator, Cho said, “may be pulling” Clinton to the left. “Sanders is very much to the left,” she said. “He’s kind of got this very different appeal.”
