It is reported that a prominent Hillary Clinton supporter and member of Democrats Abroad is to endorse John McCain in the US Presidential election.

CNN says Lynn Forester de Rothschild is to campaign for the Republican candidate.

In an interview with CNN this summer, Lady de Rothschild did not hide her distaste for Democratic presidential nominee Barack Obama.

'(F)rankly I don't like him. I feel like he is an elitist,' she said of Senator Obama.

Lady de Rothschild was a major donor for Senator Clinton, earning the title of 'Hillraiser' for helping to raise at least $100,000 (€70,000) for the New York Democratic senator's failed presidential bid.

She is married to international banker Sir Evelyn de Rothschild and divides her time between London and New York.

They were introduced by Henry Kissinger at a Bilderberg conference, an elite invite-only event held at luxury resorts around the world.

CNN reports that her announcement will take place at a news conference at the US Capitol.

Her spokesperson says she will 'campaign and help (McCain) through the election.'

She is the CEO of EL Rothschild, a holding company with businesses around the world.
