Lohan, by all accounts, is a typical low-information voter. And low information voters, like it or not, will decide this election.
I believe that, if we don't like the folks running at the top of the tickets, it's because we aren't spending enough time talking to the voters in our daily lives. I try to talk politics with strangers regularly, entering into the conversation just non-threatening small-talk ("Can you BELIEVE the price of groceries nowaday?!")
Anyways, I keep running into people who freely admit not knowing very much at all about politics and voting for Obama because they were attracted to his slogans and demeanor. I keep getting the impression that now they feel manipulated and deceived by him. It's great if the non-political voters are swaying to the right.

From BusinessInsider.com:
"Heres why the Obama campaign should be worried:
Lohan is a low information voter convinced that (a) employment is really important, (b) thinks that employment is not being sufficiently handled by the White House right now and (c) thinks that Mitt Romney is better equipped to handle employment.
That arguably logical sequence is all that it takes for a low-information voter to support Mitt Romney. The thing is, there are millions of voters like her. That should terrify the Obama campaign."

Kid Rock has been Republican for many years and played at the youth show for Bush’s 2005 inauguration. I remember reading about his openly backing Bush’s re-election with music industry celebrities and slamming the leftist icon Michael Moore as propaganda.

Either this will bring her follower over to Romney, or it will bring her friends over to her house for an intervention, followed by a stint in rehab to make sure it sticks this time (because "obviously" she must have completely lost it).
Or, of course, both.

So has Mark Cuban endorsed Romney

...meanwhile, Obama-Biden 2008 was endorsed by the likes of Michael Moore and Jane Fonda.
And in 2012...
From US News & World Report, October 1, 2012:
Hugo Chavez Says He Would Vote for Obama
"President Hugo Chavez, the Venezuelan dictator who once called President George W. Bush "the devil," has endorsed Barack Obama in the 2012 presidential race, according to the Associated Press.
"If I were American, I'd vote for Obama," Chavez said in a televised interview Sunday. "And I believe that if Obama was from Caracas, he would vote for Chavez, I am positive."

There’s some hope for her. How she came to this with her awful parents and career as a child star is almost miraculous. Good for her.

As with the empty chair - Clint was the lead on this - the first to give the 'stars' permission to give their fans permission. Scary stuff....
To: upchuck
Anyone know why Lohan is backing Romney? She is worried about unemployment, which given her career trajectory is probably wise on her part.
