Grandeur Gone Wild

What's your favorite Why-Kerry-Lost-the-Election excuse?  Ohio?  Voting irregularities?  Karl Rove's diabolical maneuvering?  Disappointing post mortem turnout?

Fresh from Hollywood, we finally have the definitive answer.  The Kerry campaign, it turns out, could've weathered all of these headwinds and still won out, if it weren't for the seemingly trivial decision of one self-important actor.

Spoiler, thy name is Clooney.

Update:  Mea culpa.  Individual celebrities can affect national elections.
