“Now he can be counted on to go on bitter anti-conservative, pro-Obama rants at least once in every new novel.”

Ugh, thanks for the warning. I doubt I’ll be reading any of his other books, since I don’t really go for horror.

And it’s true, pro-Obama rants are pretty scary!

LOL, amen to that. In one of his more recent novels-—can’t recall which one-—one of the good guys had a picture of Obama on his wall.

We happen to live around the corner from Stephen King's home in Bangor. During past elections, he's had "Kerry/Edwards" and "Obama/Biden" signs in his front yard so big that you could see them from outer space.

In 2008, speaking to a group of high school kids, he said, "I don't want to sound like an ad, a public service ad on TV, but the fact is if you can read, you can walk into a job later on. If you don't, then you've got the Army, Iraq. I don't know, something like that. It's, it's not as bright. So, that's my little commercial for that."

He's an anomaly for his type, since he's been very generous to the city of Bangor, actually reaching into his own pocket.

I still give his house the one-fingered salute practically every time we drive by. :-)
