STEPHEN Baldwin has some fighting words for Barack Obama. "(He's) such a cultural terrorist," taunted the born-again kid brother of Alec Baldwin as he challenged the Democratic presidential candidate to a fight. "I think by the time I'm done with him, he'll be a Republican," Baldwin crowed as he sat ringside in a Manhattan gym with pal Michael Lohan, who's training for a charity fight. As for going a few rounds with Sarah Palin, Baldwin scoffed, "Oh, I wouldn't fight the Barricuda Bear, c'mon. You see her shoot that gun the other day? C'mon!"

THE crowd at the premiere of "W." filed out of the Ziegfeld Tuesday night arguing over whether the Oliver Stone movie made them like President Bush more or less. While Bush (played with Oscar-worthy verve by Josh Brolin) comes off as dumb as dirt, he isn't evil in the biopic - just surrounded by evil in the form of Dick Cheney and Karl Rove. And some viewers might also take issue with Stone's underlying premise that the occupation of Iraq was a big mistake and a complete failure. Discussing the weighty issues with the cast later at the Metropolitan Club were producer Bill Block, Stone's vivacious mother, Jacqueline, Diane Lane, Tina Brown and Harry Evans, and Matthew Settle, the rocker dad in "Gossip Girl."
