One Hollywood star being hotly pursued – not only by movie producers, but also by Presidential hopefuls John McCain and Barack Obama – is Angelina Jolie.

Only, the new mom and United Nations goodwill ambassador has a message for both parties: Not so fast.

"I have not decided on a candidate," Jolie says in a statement provided by political adviser Trevor Neilson to Variety managing editor Ted Johnson, for the trade publication's Wilshire & Washington column.

The fact that she’s still undecided may say something about Obama.

So, this means what? If Jolie votes for McCain, this will enhance her conservative credentials? She is a well known liberal and this is just another cult of personality thread. LOL

She has a “political advisor?”

My God, she’s a movie actress, not a member of Congress or a head of state.

If she wants to make an intelligent choice, she should ask her dad.

Should we just wait until she decides ? I guess this means no Billy Bob Thornton for V.P.

Omigod, does anybody really care what she thinks? I mean, really. Let me ask my pet parakeet (Tweety) about the election, and I’ll get right back to you. Don’t go away . . .

Her dad (Jon Voight) has come out very strongly for McCain. He had a great interview on the Levin show a couple of weeks ago. Count him as one former liberal who has been mugged by reality and seen the truth.

She does have a concealed carry permit and live in Texas.

Children may have made her a conservative.

I should think that whatever is objectively true about BHO is true whether or not Angelina thinks it, but what may be the case is that her father coming out so strongly AGAINST the Democrats may well have at least gotten her attention. It might be simply courtesy not to diss her father while he’s got some positive media time. Plenty of time for her true feathers to grow in before November, IMHO.

You must since you responded.

However, as I stated, the results are not necessarily the issue or the story, but the rumination itself from a liberal who has a lot of clout in Hollywood.

People here on FR need to learn to read between the lines some times.

She's pretty liberal, but she also has a lot of real world experience dealing with foreign leaders and knows Obama is clueless. Jolie has a lot more knowledge on how the world operates and is no where near as naive as Obama is.
