Dennis Hopper, the GOP's Only Celebrity, Endorses Barack Obama
You gotta feel kinda bad for John McCain these days. He weathered a lot of shit in the past decade, kissed a lot of asses you know he didn't want to kiss, just so that he could be the Republican nominee for president sometime before he dies. And now that he's finally inches from the Oval Office, it looks like nobody actually wants him there but himself.
Even Dennis Hopper — who's done enough drugs to burn his brain into a permanent state of Republicanism — is endorsing Barack Obama over John McCain, as per this report from Wonkette…
[H]ippie icon and Republican-since-Reagan is in the tank for You Know Who, That One, Barack Obama. "I voted for Bush, father and son, but this time I'll vote for Obama," Hopper said in Paris, which is also in the tank for Obama. "I pray God that Barack Obama is elected."
Who's next? Roberta McCain?

correction! Voig was campaigning for McCain, not Obama! Major typo, had Obama on my mind…
Jon Voigt isn't a celebrity anymore? Last I saw, he was campaigning for Obama. Something inside him must have snapped when he was making Deliverance, he's identified with the "Aintree?! You ain't goin' to Aintree!!" crowd ever since.
McCain isn't worried, he still has Stephen Baldwin and Pat Boone in his stable of Hollywood A-Listers. OOPPPs, almost forgot Wilford Brimley
Whatever. He's probably just saying that to kiss up to the frogs. Pothead loser; probably feels a kindred spirit with that fellow druggie Barak Hussein Obama.
Hopper was friends with James Dean. James Dean would vote for Obama.
Now if only Robert Duvall would stopped acting so addled and come to his senses as well…
Seriously, when Bruce Effing Springsteen, the quintessential famous regular guy that any "Joe Sixpack" can look up to, is not in your corner, what can you do?
Too bad Charlton Heston went tits-up already, McCain could use that "whipper-snapper" and his NRA buddies right about now.
