While he won't likely change any minds, maybe some 18 year old schmuck with no political attention span hits the site and looks up the Jr Senator from Illinois. This election is just too important and will likely be too close. Any help is appreciated. Go candidate who I'm rooting for!

Last I checked you're Canadian. But even though I don't really care what his opinion is, I totally support his right to voice it and use his celebrity status as a platform if he thinks it's that important. If the nut job who dodges traffic on Irving Park every few weeks with the "Impeach Cheney" sign can try to foist his opinion on me, I see no reason for Win not to.

Is he Canadian? I thought he was originally from Texas. Say what you want Win, but don’t get pissy when we tune you out.

Just because he's a celebrity doesn't mean he has to keep his opinion to himself anymore than the next guy/gal who feels compelled to do so. Until he takes time out of his performances to speak on the matter, I don't think its fair to compare him to Bono. Don't forget, there are some artist who do product endorsements during their concerts. Then we'd have a real problem.

Too bad Win Butler is a pissy son of a bitch. I love his music, but after hearing him whine on stage, I don't really pay attention to his non-singing voice anymore.
