I truly believe this will backfire. I truly believe most Americans do not want Hollywood to tell us how to live our lives. Public Service announcements are bad enough. Having Cameron Diaz tell me to drive an Electric Car makes me want to jump out a window. I don't think this is going to work. This time, I will remember. Let's see what happens to these peoples careers after November. WE WILL NOT FORGET.

I definitely think it will backfire on Kerry. I'm not so sure about their careers though -- as strange as Springsteen has been, I can't say I'll turn the radio off when Thunder Road comes on. Most of these people only have marginal careers anyway though -- no worries.

I agree 100%, and I think most people resent thier kind of activism. For me it starts with jealousy. I wish I could make the kind of money they make on a high school education. For those of us that haven't had that kind of a break, its easier to put their view in perspective. What would they care if taxes were raised? It wouldn't bother them in the least. As long as they still have the "little people" to watch their movies so they can keep their mansions in a comfortable style they've become accustomed too.
