Well, it certainly couldn't have hurt anything if George Clooney had gone along for the ride ...
Actors sometimes say stupid things however sometimes they defy common sense. And sometimes they seem to cross the line of logic itself. It is absurd to think that an actor like Mr. Clooney could have even the slightest say in how people vote. Obviously Mr. Clooney knows nothing about the voting public or the role political candidates have to play.
Mr. Clooney could not help his own father win a Democratic seat in Congress in 2004, I doubt if showing up on the campaign trail with Senator Kerry would have made the slightest difference.
I’m not sure where this story that George Clooney lost the campaign for Kerry came from; seems that if he did indeed say it - it’s so over the top and so outrageous – it’s obviously a joke. I’m thinking it could be a case of someone misunderstanding of what George actually said when explaining WHY he didn’t join Kerry on the train, etc. Perceptions are a funny thing. Listen to it for yourself, from George’s mouth, so to speak:

If that doesn’t work, go to www.npr.org , click on the program Fresh Air, then search for George Clooney. It’s the interview that aired 10/18/2005.
It’s about 15 minutes into the interview.
