Clint Eastwood Endorses Mitt Romney
Half time in America
Barack Obama may have George Clooney. But Mitt Romney's now got Clint Eastwood in his camp.
Eastwood appeared at a Sun Valley fundraiser for Romney on Friday night, telling reporters that he's behind the former Massachusetts governor because "I think the country needs a boost."

Ron Paul would have been better, but at least it ain't Obama, right?
Free minds,
Free markets.
Romney?
No Clint officially sucks now.
The only credit he gets is for being of Hollywood and endorsing a Republican. Which is not worth very much.
"You have to ask yourself, 'Did I set up the prototype for Obamacare or didn't I?' Well, did ya, punk?"
Eastwood's been a registered Republican his whole life, so his endorsing Romney is no suprise to me.
I think he would have preferred Ron Paul, but he's a Republican so he's falling in line for Romney. I seem to recall him being asked earlier this year which GOP candidate he supported and he said Ron Paul was a good choice although he said he wouldn't fully commit to endorsing anyone till later.
