This one's bigger than Pat Robertson endorsing Rudy Giuliani: Gennifer Flowers may vote for Hillary Clinton.

Bill Clinton's onetime paramour tells us she'd like to put a woman in the White House, though she also likes Mitt Romney (he has integrity) and Joe Biden (he has experience, and "I think he's sexy").

"I think that, actually, Hillary and I have a lot in common," says Flowers, who is pro-choice but fiscally conservative. "We're both very strong women."

Flowers, 57, who recently relocated to Las Vegas from New Orleans after a divorce, is still doing her cabaret act of singing, dancing and telling Viagra jokes. A few years ago, she starred in "Boobs! The Musical"; she now has a role in an upcoming reality show about plastic surgeons. ("Honey, I've had all sorts of cosmetic surgery.")

"I have been determined to not only survive but thrive . . . and I think she's done the same thing," Flowers says of Clinton, adding that she feels she got to know the New York senator "pretty well" through Bill.
