Dont buy those Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez wedding presents just yet..
'Everyone thought they would get married this summer,' said a Lopez pal.
'But her work schedule kept filling up, so it's not happpening yet.'
Lopez is going to spend her summer in Winnipeg working with Richard Gere on Mirimax's remake 'Shall We Dance.'
Meanwhile, Ben Affleck looks like he is serious about getting into politics.
The star dropped his longtime publicity man David Pollack for the politically connected Ken Sunshine.

He'll fit right in with the Dems.
No brain.

Presumably he'll run as a democrat. Hopefully, the gop people will look into his life and use his past against him. Of course, to most democrats, there is no sin too great to eliminate their candidates from being elected.

Surely
this is who'll be his running mate.
To: ewing
Ben Affleck is a spineless twerp who allowed his latest flame to completely mold and change him. He also strikes me as an airhead. He'd fit in with the Dems perfectly.
To: ewing
Wow...wonder if he'll actually register to vote now.

Never got to the Ben Affleck part. Couldn't get past Richard Gere and J-Lo in the remake of "Shall We Dance!" This is the Fred Astaire / Ginger Rogers film and how does Richard Gere become Fred? Computer graphics? Just a thought.

As a Dim in the People Republic of Mass he will win..

I believe he's from Cambridge and in Capuano's district right now.
Looked it up. That district is 82% rat and used to be Joe Kennedy's district. It covers Cambridge, Somerville, and part of Boston.
If Benny runs, he's going to get in a primary fight. If he beats that, he wins. Hopefully, he'll get his ass handed to him outside of Cambridge.

And he'll get elected simply because of his fame.
