from a seriously washed up actress.

Just sneeze away, and you'll feel better.

Lohan has how much credibility at the moment? Anybody choosing to vote for Romney just because people like Lohan and Dash support him are, well, lost...............

its a pretty good article about the state of Low information Voters

idiots. Low information voters make up the Republican "base."

The reality is that Lohan won't vote at all, and she'll be in good company. Her fans won't either.

...I remember when I was 18-19 years old and my first vote was going to be for Reagan because 'everybody is voting for Reagan'... but my friend pulled me aside and explained how Reagan was preventing AIDS research and how he didnt care about those that are suffering because of hate and bigotry..... I was no longer a low information voter and that has been with me my entire life. The BIG TRUTH this story is, and honestly, this just struck me... My friend, Steve, who was a gay man, later died of AIDS shortly after his partner died sometime around 1993... and if Reagan wouldn't have held AIDS research hostage for 8+ years, my very good friend would probably be here today.

And this is the very conservative NY Post, a disgusting mockery of a newspaper!

but lohan votes and so do the millions of low and sub low information people out there... they vote based on trend, thats what we have to contend with.... frankly in 08' Obama had the trend and the trend votes certainly helped put him...

In both the industry and social media. Her nickname is "Crackie."

problem is, what do we do it about exactly? It's not like we're going to improve the IQ of so-called "low-information voters" in the time we have left, especially anybody whose vote might be swayed by Stacy Dash and/or Lindsey Lohan. I'd be a little more worried if somebody like Whoopi Goldberg or George Clooney came out in support of Romney but not the two aforementioned actress (as lovely as they may otherwise be they are essentially "nobodys" when it comes to politics IMHO).

Lohan sways with the wind.... is it important to work on that wind?? Maybe that's what Obama camp was trying to do with Big Bird commercial?

Who cares about Lindsay giving Romney the thumbs up? But yes, there's a problem when it comes to low info voters.

Another example of Disney pop-bread garbage.

At least Jameson is honest. And Hogan has always been indifferent to politics.

She's a train wreck.

nt

Sounds like a textbook Republican voter to me.

That's the thing with low-information voters. When Election Day rolls around, they might just decide to hang out and watch tv instead of standing in a line and voting for ... whatever. Seriously. The ones that are scary are the "true believers." They'd crawl over broken glass to vote. These kinds of people? They talk a big game and then forget to vote. Let's hope so, anyway.

meth is a terrible, terrible thing.

...you have a serious problem.

It's so freaking obvious and tragic. Now she basically is a reality clown that makes her money acting out her tragic slide in life for entertainment of people that's biggest thrill is TMZ. The worst part is there is so few people around her with any good sense to not try to continue making a buck off it. It's hard to work up any kind of anger over her because she is basically disintegrating in full view.

As is alcohol.

...Yay!

a criminal record - yeah, that's an endorsement we don't want.

and take that "promiscuous" word out of your subject line. Regardless of my (admittedly low) opinion of Ms. Lohan and her views, her sexual behavior is of absolutely NO CONSEQUENCE here.

One could argue that her substance abuse issues are also off the table.

I'm a drunken slut, so my opinion doesn't matter?

Well, guess what? I AM a drunken slut. I am a drunken slut with an MA and and a Phi Beta Kappa. How ya like me now?

Is this bizarre day here?

That people still think a woman's sexual behavior is relevant in political discussion.

I'm an overtly sexual woman and that has no bearing on my ability to contribute to the discussion.

Now, the fact that Lindsay Lohan is probably a very stupid person IS relevant to the discussion.

I'm just calling you out on your sexism. Deal with it.

It is hard to believe that people on a progressive board will go there. I also take issue with the rehab comments. Although I don't find them as offensive the one on her sexual behavior.

Can you explain?

I mean, Lindsay is admittedly pretty; it's a fading prettiness that needs cosmetic assistance, but still she has a pretty quality. Is that why you object to my remarks?

She's not a girl; she's a 27-year-old rapidly aging woman who is capable of taking care of herself.

And she is endorsing a candidate who would raid the social security trust fund for his Wall Street cronies and throw the elderly out of their homes, into the gutter and laugh all the way to his offshore bank accounts. If you think that means I am angry with this endorsement, you're correct.

She's exactly my daughters age, maybe 3 weeks younger. Looks 10 years older.
Lots of talent and had a great future, once. Hope she's not the next "shocking celebrity death."

I am familiar with your history here; I respect you, and I'm sorry if I offended you.

Apology accepted; props to you.

We good now; we go on to finish the job, yes?

She is a career criminal and a sociopath, a pathological liar, a racist, and has violated her probation so many times since her jewelry theft trial, including a hit and run, pulling a fire alarm, and a false statement to NYPD... all within the last three weeks alone.

There is a lot of "tells" that Lindsay may be an "escort" now, but that is also something I won't fault for for. Sex is not a crime, unless it's something like rape.

she has endorsed a candidate who supports, and thus is increasing the probability, of all of the following public policies taking place. And end of abortion rights, the dissolution of all same sex marriages, and letting employers ban you from getting bc. The fact she is a drunken tart is quite relevant.

That's interesting.

Please tell me, what's the analogous insult for drunken "promiscuous" men?

a gigolo, a sleaze bag, skanky among others. She drinks like a fish, sleeps around, and then votes so that rape victims can't get abortions, yes her horrid behavior is relevant.

I don't even know how people know about her sex life.

How do you even know she's a "tart"?

pretty harmless, cyber sex activities which were no one's business but his own. The outrage from the Right was fairly muted, they let Democrats take him down. His constituents otoh, would have reelected him based on his political policies rather than his personal life.

Just put his name in the search engine here and you will some of the attacks on him from the left. It was pretty disturbing considering how we claim to be so supportive of an individual's right to conduct their sexual lives without interference or condemnation.

not for sexting.

slamming a guy for having cyber sex, became pretty much indefensible.

And whose business is it if someone in a marriage is cheating other than the two people involved? Did his wife ask us for our opinions on what her husband was doing or not doing?

If we ran every President and other elected officials out of office for their personal behavior, some of our best and most effective leaders would not have had the chance to have the positive effects they had on this country.

It was a witch hunt pure and simple. His personal behavior never interfered with his work as a Representative of the people who elected him and that is ALL that should concern us, especially Democrats.

The behavior of the leadership of the party was reprehensible also. Republicans did not run their guys out of office when they were caught cheating or whatever, which was total hypocrisy on their part considering their feigned outrage of Clinton and their 'family values' platform.

As a result they HAD to remain somewhat quiet on Weiner. But the Dem Leadership decided to run him out of the party for phony reasons of 'morality' or whatever.

You asked whether men get the same kind of treatment as women, and sadly the answer is 'yes' generally from the puritans in our society and the capitulation to puritanical bullying by weak minded people who are afraid to stand up to them. It should not happen to men or women.

Their private lives are not our business, period.

Single men are not slammed for being "promiscuous" the way single women are.

Whether the infidelity of someone else should bother us or not is a separate issue.

unless you consider the sexting cheating.

Bill Clinton to name one. Gary Hart to name another. Richard Celeste to name a third. I could go on and on and on like the Titanic.

which was, are there terms like that about males.

sexual behavior, her sexuality and her choice to have frequent sex, with different partners, are not the reason she is symbolic of the problem of low-information voters.

Many people--male and female, straight or gay, bisexual, or transgendered--who enjoy a lusty sex life (which they have a right to enjoy if they wish to!) are also well-informed voters who cast their votes for the best candidates and even work their butts off to help get them elected.

Did they bother to register? Will they bother showing up?

Really done with this trend of giving a shit about "low-information voters."

I reject the premise that we should give a shit what ignorant irresponsible sorry excuses for citizens think.

Fuck them and their probably not-even-going-to-be-cast votes.

Or at least, that's what I thought. Didn't she say as much?

You may be right. Jameson has always had a dry sense of humor and enjoys trolling the MSM just to raise ire amongst the "moral majority".

What if Honey Boo Boo endorses Romney too?

That's well over 140 characters, she wouldn't read something like that.

but maybe I should include a graph too

Half of her fans who follow her on twitter will be too hung over or drugged out to even vote. The other half will be worrying about what shade they should color their toe nails that day.

Who continues to violate probation (for a jewelry store theft) and get away with it.

She is pissed at President Obama, because he didn't answer her dumb tweet a few weeks ago asking him to lower the taxes of her and her friends, and because the Obama campaign turned her down to be a campaign ambassador.

Considering she routinely misses community service and work appointments due to sleeping all day, I doubt she'll make it to the polls.

And, no, it isn't a big deal. Lohan is only a big deal to herself, her parasitic abusive parents, and her dealers.

GOP is really stretching to make Obama look bad. Mitt can have Lindsay.

Not just a low information voter.

ever recover from this blow?

She won't bother to vote and neither will her erstwhile "followers".

Sounds like a hack writer looking for 15 seconds of attention. Note the picture he used when he's got tons of coke-eyed face puffed pictures to choose from.

What are the good points that have you so concerned?

People PITY her these days. Nobody's looking a her and saying they want to do anything she does. She was at Mr. Pink's Ginseng Drink event, you say?? Oh, dear God, we should shake in our UGGS!

Don't you know one George Clooney is worth a thousand or more Lohans????

Even LIVs know she's a trainwreck and a joke these days.

that LiLo isn't even registered to vote!

....there aren't very many "low information voters" in Hollywood, but that's what this writer wants you to believe.

two of the most beautiful, talented, and intelligent actresses in Hollywood.

People are being educated through social media. In the past, people had to SEEK information. Now it is coming to them through social media. The truth is, there are few people who will alienate themselves on social media simply to avoid the occasional political posting. And although they will often not open the things they don't agree with, they ARE aware of the general feeling from these posts.

I have been seeing a real shift among my own friends and family and have even been thanked and complimented, by unlikely sources, for the political postings. I know that this isn't just happening with me because i see others saying the same things, here, on occasion.

The radical ideology against women alone should be enough to turn any sane woman off the now extreme Republican Party. That she doesn't care about that is beyond comprehension.

But then again, the wealthy always have access to whatever it is they need, be it loop holes for bigger tax breaks or abortion services for their mistresses and daughters. Regardless of what they want the public to have access to, they will not be denied any thing. Privileged people will have their privilege!

So Lindsay can sleep well knowing that no matter what happens to the Supreme Court in the next few years she will have a bigger tax break if a republican is in office, the rest of the us be damned.

Fuck You Lindsay Lohan.

surviving. No director would take a chance on that cokehead having a significant part in any movie he or she wants to direct.

Her lifestyle and her parasitic mother have drained it all away, and her career is a joke.

She also owes money to loads of people via judgments, and is she was a black man, she would have been in prison by now for tax evasion (see Wesley Snipes), which is going to bite her on the ass one day.

I often think of Lizzy Kaplan, Rachel McAdams, and Amanda Seyfried from "Mean Girls," LiLo's last big movie that did well. Look at all of them now. Lacy Chaubert (sic) already had -- and still has -- a huge voice actor career.

That's the question.

You might say that all of Fox News' audience are low info voters.

Like she would have have anyway. Can't wait to see Argo, Ben!

Most people who don't pay attention don't bother to vote.

Most low information voters are just republicans.

Call me paranoid if you want, but to me this smells like the setup to be a rationalization for the 'surprising' outcome in a(nother) stolen election

she is not "typical", as this person claims.

I don't know how low-information she is, or how low-information anyone is, but I do know she is rich, and rich people have obvious reasons for voting for Mitt.

And has a lot of connections (which is why she isn't in state prison on felony jewelry robbery right now). So, her buddies are 1%ers, and her POV is, too.

She's also pissed at Obama.

She'll be too hungover to vote anyway.

Update: I was kinda right:

Meanwhile, before she votes for anyone, Lohan needs to update her voter registration, records show.

The actress was registered in California and voted in 2008.

But LiLo, 26, has since changed addresses and hasn’t registered at her new one, according to voter-registration records.

She has until Oct. 22 if she wants to vote in November.

who that idiot will vote for. It sure won't influence anyone with a brain.

(inspired by Mr. Leghorn)

It doesn't matter what imdb says. She is deeply in debt and has no serious career left. She is also homeless.

rob delaney ?@robdelaney
Lindsay Lohan endorses Romney, issuing her most naked cry for help to date.

They are both incapable of rational thought.

I say that after hearing the story of RMoney introducing himself to Navy SEAL Doherty (killed in Benghazi) FOUR times over several hours at a party. RMoney couldn't remember his name or face for the duration of one party.

So there.

Both have more money than they need, and seem to be always partying. (Yes I'm Jealous)

That's gotta be a huge demographic...right?

a washed up has been actress with a hell of a lot of emotional problems. If she could act worth a shit she might get a job. seriously, what has this, whatever she is, ever done?

15%? Maybe 20%? What sort of a positive role model might she be? I don't see how any association and / or "endorsement" from her benefits Romney, quite the opposite.

Two of a kind.

and it worked. Sad, given the sad sack loser Lindsay is -- a tanking career, multiple DUIs, jewelry theft, hit and runs, etc. -- and the republicans want her as a mascot? Paris Hilton used to be the same way, except that people for the most part people stopped paying attention to her altogether a few years ago. Lindsay has served time in jail, has been found guilty of stealing jewelry, and is a fine model for the republicans (snort)
