So, Lindsey Lohan plans on voting for Mitt Romney this November, according to a bit of information released by E! News.
Now, I generally discount the words of a serial rehab center frequenter as much as anyone, but Business Insider has given me a reason to be concerned:
Lohan, by all accounts, is a typical low-information voter. And low information voters, like it or not, will decide this election.
BI's Walter Hickey then notes that Lohan isn't alone in her low-information selection of a candidate to back, making note of Friday Night Lights author Buzz Bissinger:
Bissinger was a low information voter. He ignored the election, watched the debate, took everyone's word for it on the facts, and backed Romney.
But Bissinger is emblematic of millions of Americans. These people don't follow politics and plan to vote based on what little information they've gleaned.
Basically, it seems as if things are coming down to the fact that tangential things that may have won Obama the last election (potentially the first black president; a Democrat running following a widely-reviled Republican administration; convincing the electorate with simple introductions to complex issues) are working against him in this election.

Excellent post sir.
You have identified the dynamic here.
I believe that, if we don't like the folks running at the top of the tickets, it's because we aren't spending enough time talking to the voters in our daily lives. I try to talk politics with strangers regularly, entering into the conversation just non-threatening small-talk ("Can you BELIEVE the price of groceries nowaday?!")
Anyways, I keep running into people who freely admit not knowing very much at all about politics and voting for Obama because they were attracted to his slogans and demeanor. I keep getting the impression that now they feel manipulated and deceived by him. It's great if the non-political voters are swaying to the right.
There are reports that her mom owes $1.3 million.
"Here’s why the Obama campaign should be worried:
Lohan is a low information voter convinced that (a) employment is really important, (b) thinks that employment is not being sufficiently handled by the White House right now and (c) thinks that Mitt Romney is better equipped to handle employment.
That arguably logical sequence is all that it takes for a low-information voter to support Mitt Romney. The thing is, there are millions of voters like her. That should terrify the Obama campaign."
"I think unemployment is very important for now, so as of now I think (my vote) is Mitt Romney," Lohan told reporters"
Kid Rock has been Republican for many years and played at the youth show for Bush’s 2005 inauguration. I remember reading about his openly backing Bush’s re-election with music industry celebrities and slamming the leftist icon Michael Moore as propaganda.
Or, of course, both.
So has Mark Cuban endorsed Romney
And in 2012...
From US News & World Report, October 1, 2012:
Hugo Chavez Says He Would Vote for Obama
"President Hugo Chavez, the Venezuelan dictator who once called President George W. Bush "the devil," has endorsed Barack Obama in the 2012 presidential race, according to the Associated Press.
"If I were American, I'd vote for Obama," Chavez said in a televised interview Sunday. "And I believe that if Obama was from Caracas, he would vote for Chavez, I am positive."
Clearly, jerk Biden doesn't think it's a serious issue.
Joe Biden, "J-O-B-S" a 3-letter word

Another Amish guy switches to Romney....
A mature thought crept in there expressed itself and vanished into a sea of her usual vapidness.

Well if Lohan is a “bad” endorsement for Romney, look at the pack Obama runs with:

There’s some hope for her. How she came to this with her awful parents and career as a child star is almost miraculous. Good for her.
Yep anything that pisses off you in the closet Leftists is a good thing.
Scary stuff....
