Lots of Celebs Endorsing Barack Obama for U.S. President
MeeVee has an interesting breakdown of some of the celebrities that are endorsing various U.S. presidential candidates in both parties. Hulk Hogan is endorsing Barack Obama, but Nature Boy Rick Flair is endorsing Mike Huckabee.
According to the breakdown, it seems that Obama has the vast majority of celebrity endorsements, mostly from actors/ actresses and a few others in the entertainment business. Someone commented to me last week that Hollywood really wants a Democrat back in power, though he didn’t say why he thought that. That their endorsements lie with Obama rather than, say, Hillary Clinton, says loads. She does, however, have the backing of a few celebrities – mostly non-actors – including Barbra Streisand, Martha Stewart and Magic Johnson.
Not surprisingly, bowhunting Amboy Duke Ted Nugent is backing Mike Huckabee as well. Nugent, despite being a long-haired rock and roll star is very right-wing. In John McCain’s corner are the governator Arnold Schwarzenegger, along with Rambo star Sylvester Stallone.
By the way, the Hulkster will appear in this year’s “Little Hercules in 3-D” as Zeus.
