Eva Longoria a Democratic powerhouse



The nation's capital is littered with celebrities promoting their pet causes.

Depending on the day, you might run into Angelina Jolie, Ted Nugent, Yoko Ono, Sean Penn, Chris Rock, Tony Bennett or Ashley Judd cruising the corridors of Capitol Hill, trying to bring glitter to causes obscure or controversial.

Most celebrities draw brief media attention to their cause du jour and board the next jet home. Then there's Eva Longoria.

Over the past five years of the Obama presidency, the 38-year-old Texas native has slowly but surely made her mark in Washington as a serious student of issues, a formidable fundraiser for Democratic causes and a spokeswoman for the emerging, increasingly empowered young generation of Latinos across the nation.
