breaking the spell ...

I hate to refer to Lindsay as a shepherd, however, her followers are in fact sheep, and so she is one of a growing number of shepherds.

The significance of Lindsay is part of a broader movement that's starting to gain traction.

'Cool' people are withdrawing their support for Obama, giving permission to their followers to consider doing the same.

For these people to even question their blind loyalty to Obama, the perfect man, represents the fundamental destruction of his brand.

The fundamental thing that keeps this type of Obama supporter in the cage, is an absence of asking themselves, rather than their idols, who's cool. Hollywood is now providing leadership in questioning.

It translates indirectly towards the surge, because in order to flip an Obama voter, the intellectual hypnotic spell must first be broken. That is the role some 'stars' are playing for Romney.

As with the empty chair - Clint was the lead on this - the first to give the 'stars' permission to give their fans permission.

4.5 million twitter followers vs
24K following George Clooney.
How’s that make sense?

The "Not So Good" Shepherd.
