Throw in the PC political activism, he’s their darling.

He’s foolish to think he can win. His wife is not in any way connected to the US, a foreign born wife will not be liked and second, he’ll be eaten alive by the other candidates who are better trained and credentialed.

Even George Clooney realizes that he can’t go straight to the top. Probably start with Congress and try to move up from there. Guys like him aren’t automatic losers in California politics, however hard it might be for him to win nationally.

I’m sure most women found Clooney extremely good looking and started flocking to his movies. Critics and reporters had to have based their ‘consensus’ on that.

If he were a ‘dud’ of an actor he would have dropped in popularity. We know a lot of actors aren’t all that informed or intelligent, after all - they live their lives portraying others in film. It’s always disappointing when they open their mouths and spout nonsense.

Followers of Clooney are much smarter, cleaner, educated nad functional than Olsteen followers...but then thats not saying much lol

My 2 cents:

He was good in O Brother, Where Art Thou?, but only marginally because the music carried the movie. He really should never have been cast as Batman. He has that stupid grin on his face on the time, and Batman is a serious guy, even though he wears a mask and a cape and goes around in tights. Other than that, I can’t think of any movie that he was in that I liked enough to remember.

I dunno; his delusions of grandeur and boot-licking Obama (along with his frequent invites to White House meetings) has likely fed his delusions of being able to run and win office. It was read that Clooney felt that Amal would give him political credibility.

I swear I don’t get the appeal. Clooney is okay-looking to me, but that’s about it...nothing special at all. Different strokes, I guess.

[HanneyBean]

You and me both. I guess he isn’t butt-ugly, but I don’t find him attractive at all.

[CatherineofAragon]

Yep, just sort of...meh.

[xp38]

Two words Al Franken.......if he can be elected anyone can.

[onyx]

Ditto.

[reasonisfaith]

Isn’t what the public sees of George Clooney really just a phony representation?

[rollo tomasi]

Different strokes?

No, that would be The Facts of Life

[Ezekiel]

What is "love"?

[CatherineofAragon]

I can’t see that...I only see a square...but is it Clooney in his mullet days, LOL?

[CatherineofAragon]

I can think of better...

[The Duke]

Rhymes with loony ...

[rollo tomasi]

Jeez, image comes and goes, yes mullet days

On the cover of some magazine at the grocery store this week the headline read “ITS OVER” next to a pic of Clooney and another of his wife.
