So whom would some icons of the 50's be supporting for President this year? You'd have to go back all that far to have to wonder, because today's celebs are all too anxious to reveal their stances.

Why just the other day, Pamela Anderson let it be known what she thought of VP candidate Sarah Palin. And if Pamela doesn't like her, well, then how can I?

I liked it a lot better when they kept their political beliefs to themselves. While most tend to be left wingers, I chose the term anxious--with anxiety rather than eager--looking forward to in the first paragraph. As I've blogged before, it really makes it difficult for me to separate their ideological (or is it idiotlogical) choices to themselves. Do I like Bruce Willis better now than George Clooney? In a word, yup.

I just have trouble identifying and supporting someone who openly bashes my candidates and embraces the ones I don't favor. Stubborn? Unforgiving? I guess, but as stronge as my beliefs are, I just am not mature enough philosophically to accept the gulf of difference.

It's different with friends. While I have trouble understanding their political preferences, since we're friends, I can still accept them. But Streisand and Daddy Yankee haven't called me for weeks, so all relational intercourse is one-sided. And they haven't even heard my side of the argument.

As far as Dean and Dee. I have to think them both McCain/Palin. I mean James was a rebel himself, and Sandra's just too sweet, too innocent to be a mean old Obama/Biden supporter.
