Celebrities Who Endorse Romney
The nearer we get to the 2012 presidential election, the more we learn about the political preferences of our friends and neighbors. Celebrities, however, tend to voice their opinions the loudest, mostly because they have the clout, resources and forums to do so.
It also seems that a slew of more conservative stars have been speaking their minds about this year's election — and that's not something you'd necessarily expect from the entertainment industry. Several famous actors, actresses and musicians are speaking out in favor of former Governor Mitt Romney, and many of these Hollywood heavyweights aren't afraid to explain why.
We already know that Mitt's got Clint's vote, but which other celebs can Romney count on this November?
Scott Baio: Scott Baio, probably best known for his roles on "Charles in Charge" and "Joanie Loves Chachi," is a registered Republican who once campaigned for Ronald Reagan. In an interview from FoxNews.com, Baio describes Hollywood as being more conservative than it appears. "The people who believe what I believe are much quieter about it," he said.
Jon Voight: Academy Award-winning actor Jon Voight gave an interview to The Daily Caller while attending the Republican National Convention, stating, "I think because of Gov. Romney’s great talents, his great compassion, his great gifts of leadership, he’s going to win this election.”
Kid Rock: Musician Kid Rock has officially put his support behind the Republican ticket. "I’m sorry he didn’t do a better job, I really wish he would have — I do," said Rock of President Obama during a separate rally in Michigan, "but the facts are the facts."
Stacey Dash: "Clueless" star Stacey Dash recently voiced her support for Romney on Twitter. She received a lot of backlash on the social networking site, but responded with a tweet reading, "My humble opinion … EVERYONE is entitled to one."
