Why would he have to be governor first? Isn't he from Kentucky?

Was he not one of those hollyweirds that was going to leave the USA if Bush got elected?

Why is he still here ?

Along with rozi-o-spoon...

Hummm. Another rich, opinionated dilatant who has never run a business or stood for a lower office. I suspect that although the party could put together a winning team that he would not hold up well in the rough and tumble world of politics. Too much ego. But given that this is California...

They elected Arnold, who did nothing for them either, why not?

I'd prefer a Reagan-esque man, myself.

LOL. This is standard Democrat Party idiot rhetoric. You would do more in one day as governor than you would in one year as a senator, especially if you're going to be a governor of a large state.

He’d be running against one of the few men more vain than he is.

A vote for George is a vote for a muzzie (his future wife is one).

Why? Having no discernible experience or qualifications did not prevent Al Franken from getting elected to the Senate.

Clooney is no more of a joke than Franken is.

No, in fact I am long past caring. Let the freak run, let him win, let him tour the ghettoes and the ruins from the coming riots when no one has food, no one has a place to live, no one has a job, no one has a car.

Imagine LA, SD and San Francisco when the mob torches each.

Go ahead George, find out what life really is like for the rest of us. Or not.

You won’t be acting a movie script where you and everyone like you are so smart so cool, your schemes and your fantasies are just part of the show.

Wretch. Ignorant wretch.

Would he be able to maintain his supply of Bolivian Marching Powder? IIRC Malibu to Sacramento is a pretty long trip.

He should run. He might be due for an update of what percentage are just nodding and smiling when he sounds off, what percentage are ignoring him completely, and what percentage actually agrees enough with him to give a vote.

“but he knows he would have to hold a position like governor first”

The only thing that George Clooney is qualified to hold is....never mind, I don’t want to get banned.

Yep, and if I had the where with all, I’d go back and pull up my comments when it first hit that he was ‘engaged’. First thing I said was, ‘he’s going to run for office’.

Dumb women will vote cuz they find him attractive, ugh!!
