Its still refreshing, and she has a right to vote for who the **** she wants to vote for. This wouldn't be an issue here if this was Melissa Joan Hart voting for Romney. The reason this even has its own thread is because its a black woman voting for someone other than Obama. SHOCKING.

nnnn;;,
what? It'd be shocking for it to be ANY other celebrity making this statement in this context. You really believe if it were any other celebrity- a low profile celebrity at that, saying the EXACT statement she just did:

It wouldn't get it's own thread and people wouldn't react the same way? It gets a thread and a reaction because they're a public figure - and public figures (in general) influence people, inadvertently tend to speak or represent a specific group of people, and have a higher chance of having their voice be heard. Considering that, her apparently strong stance on it, and given that she's a woman (of color) speaks volumes when taking Mitts views into account.
