Why JCM even though his politics are so far left it only takes two rights to get to the same place on the map? Because he knows that the only way an elderly white guy with Keating five ties is going to win the White House is on a tide of rising Amerigasms.

But he was willing to sell a song to Chevrolet to use in their ads.

So I guess it isn't about political differences as much as he is a money whore.

A blast from what might as well be considered the past. I think it was posted here "back in the day" of nearly a year ago, but I can't find it.
