Now there are some celebrities who are actually deeply informed about politics. And then there are some who aren't. And then there are some who aren't who nonetheless feel the need to talk about it and the "reasoning" behind why they support or oppose Candidate X. Enter Whoopi Goldberg, who apparently thinks that neither Clinton nor Obama said anything about "expediting" jobs out of the country prior to May 2007. Jeebus save us.

And while I'd love to believe an informed voter a) would not vote based on what WG says, and b), even if so inclined previously, would not do so in light of the facile basis on which she founds her endorsement, the reality is it's the View, which evidently, completely beyond my reckoning, lots of people continue to watch.
