CNN's Wolf Blitzer brought liberal actress Jane Fonda and Obama administration flack Marie Harf as his guests to Saturday's White House Correspondents Dinner. Blitzer gushed over Fonda and Harf during a live interview with colleague Brianna Keilar: "It doesn't get any better than Jane Fonda....Can you believe that I'm here with Jane Fonda? And Marie Harf, acting spokeswoman for the U.S. State Department – how cool is that?"

Harf also sang the praises of the actress, and the two disclosed that they had taken "selfies" during the car ride over the dinner: "I was looking forward to meeting Jane Fonda, so that was really a dream come true....We've already done selfies in the car."
