George Clooney is convinced he ruined John Kerry's chances in the race for US president in 2004 - by snubbing an invitation and hurting his feelings.
The Ocean's Twelve actor was one of several screen stars invited to ride on Kerry's election train, but it all went downhill for the Democrat when Clooney stayed away.
He recalls: "Kerry asked me to ride on his train - he had a train going cross-country after he was nominated and some actors went on board. I called him and explained that I couldn't do it. I'd hurt him. I'd actually caused him harm at the polls."

The term "self-important" comes to mind.

How viable is a candidate if they 'need' this assclown to win?

As if Clooney had that much influence. LOL
The only thing bigger than BS's mouth is Geroge Clooney's ego.

I would say the swift boat Vets did it.
My former neighbor changed her tune after they came on scene.

Vanity, thy name is George Clueless Clooney
[George, you aren't that influential. Sorry, guy. You just aren't that significant.]

I'm not so sure his absense hurt Kerry, but everytime he flaps his lips, it certainly helps us.
