Celebrity Endorsements: Does Anyone Really Care?

PAT SAJAK: "If any group of citizens is uniquely unqualified to tell someone else how to vote, it's those of us who live in the sheltered, privileged arena of celebrityhood"...

"It’s one thing to buy an ab machine because Chuck Norris recommends it (he’s in good shape, isn’t he?) or a grill because George Foreman’s name is on it (he’s a great guy, so it must be a great grill!), but the idea of choosing the Leader of the Free World based on the advice of someone who lives in the cloistered world of stardom seems a bit loony to me."

I found this rather interesting considering the media makes such a bg deal over who is donating to whom or which celebrity is backing a particular candidate. I certainly dont give a crap who they are supporting or endorsing - Do you?
