All of this is going to backfire on Obama. That's the last thing presidential candidates need to do is to suck-up to the Hollywood crowd.

If McCain picks a conservative VP and sharpens his message, we could see a repeat of Reagan-Mondale 1984.

The decision to let some of them take to the centre stage is a calculated gamble dues paid by Obama

Well, Clooney is his number one adviser - and playing the obamination like a fiddle.

Nothing like proving McCain's 'celebrity' ad as right on.

This will be fun to watch. These people, after 9/11, are no longer looked at as heroes - 9/11 showed America who the real heroes are.

And America doesn't want the Hollywood empty heads telling them who to vote for.

As for the obamination, it's becoming apparent to more people every day that "the suit has no emporer."

“9/11 showed America who the real heroes are.”

Which has been refreshing and something I’ve revelled in since.

“and playing the obamination like a fiddle.”

Nah, it’s the Democrats playing the celebrities.
