Well forgive me for saying so but Bruce Springsteen although a great artist has 0 impact on who I vote for. As matter of fact no hollywood, or music celeberty does. Quite the opposite actually.

Bruce proves he has got some brains, too bad he's not a SD.

No, I think Bruce's fans are mature and wise enough to realize that they enjoy his songs, but don't necessarily have to follow his politics. Seems like its the 25 and under crowd who traditionally are more swayed by the passing fancy, or vote in accordance to the latest pop star.

Yeah, the same way he swayed them in 2004 with Kerry.

Who gives a rat's behind about him or any of the other movie star, rock star types. They all tend to be liberal as heck since they don't have a clue as to what the average American life it like.

Sweet. I am definitely going for Obama now, UNLESS of course John Fogerty makes an endorsement for Hillary Clinton, which CAN ONLY be trumped by an endorsement from John Cougar for John McCain.

But obviously those 3 endorsments can always be topped by a Lynyrd Skynyrd or Alabama endorsment for ANYONE!!!!!!

Sorry. Only a halfwit chooses his president based on what a celebrity thinks. If that really sways you, then you should have your right to vote stripped from you.
