You could have knocked me over with a feather when I saw Don King holding up four fingers to signify "four more years." The Dems have their celebrities, we have ours.

The Dems havetheir criminals and glory-seekers. To my dismay, we have ours.
Nah, Don King actually LIVES at the Garden. (For non-NYers, "the garden" is Madison Square Garden. No, it's not a garden, but then again, it's round.)

It's old news that he's an R. I didn't know he was a delegate though.
However, I'm not sure this is helpful. Don King is famous, but for many not so good reasons. Let's face it, he's about as crooked as they come.

Ping for sports celebrities with good sense. (Does not include NASCAR driver Mark Martin, who's a big-time Dem. Blech.)

Doesn't surprise me. Don King is all about opportunism, entrepeneurism, freedom, and enrichment. Good GOP values.

Surprise: Boxing promoter Don King is a Republican It's not a surprise to me. The guy is a successful businessman regularly attacked by the MSM.

You don't watch CAVUTO on FNC?
He's had DON KING on a few times and he, Don, isn't at all shy about being pro-Bush.
To: Dog
I know...Don King?!!! Amazing.

Cavuto is on during the workday here in Los Angeles. Truth be told, I don't watch much TV news. Get most of my news from FR and the broader internet these days, as well as talk radio.

It's old news that he's an R.Maybe so, but this is the first I've learned about it. My attitude: Will wonders never cease.
