Celebrity Endorsements

It seems like everybody is paying attention to this year's election. Among the observant are celebrities that feel it is their duty to publicly support certain candidates. Among the most high-profile endorsers are Oprah Winfrey (who is supporting Barack Obama), and Chuck Norris (who is supporting Mike Huckabee).

Since the presidential race is currently between many candidates, it makes sense that a candidate would try to seek publicity wherever he or she can get it, even from a celebrity. But for now, the race is still in too early of a stage to see if the endorsements really help a candidate's cause.
