“I’d like a note from him some day saying he thanks Obama Girl.”

By John Charles Reedburg

Trick please!

New York — She declared her love, took off most of her clothes, and fought in BARACK OBAMA’s corner in an Internet video sensation. Now Obama Girl wants a little loving back.

“Maybe if I could get invited to the inauguration?” giggled AMBER LEE ETTINGER, better known as the foxy Obama Girl whose “I got a crush on Obama” song scored more than 10 million YouTube hits.

Ettinger, speaking to members of the at a victory party for the Democratic candidate in a New York restaurant, said she’d at least like to hear whether the president-elect enjoyed the song.

“I’d like a note from him some day saying he thanks Obama Girl.”

Ettinger, 26, came dressed as herself, with a diamond stud in her right nostril and a short but elegant dress, rather than the tiny shorts and bared midriff of her Obama Girl days.

Publicity agent Kelly Brady said “I got a crush on Obama,” which contrasted hilariously wonky lyrics with Ettinger’s more raw appeal, was not just a joke.

“Sex sells, and she was the sexy part of the election. That helped draw in the younger crowd. They asked: ‘What’s that hot girl saying about Obama?’”

Ettinger says politics did not interest her much until Obama’s campaign against Republican John McCain. Now she’s ready for anything.
