Warren Beatty for Governor? Not If California Can Help It
Maybe President of France:
Hollywood director Rob Reiner and actor Warren Beatty are well-known to California voters if either decides to run for governor next year, but a poll shows they aren’t particularly well-liked.
…About two-thirds of the registered voters surveyed said they already had opinions about Reiner and Beatty, but most viewed the two men unfavorably.
In Reiner’s case, 41 percent of voters viewed him in an unfavorable light, compared to 25 percent who liked him. About 48 percent of voters viewed Beatty unfavorably, compared to 16 percent who saw him in a positive light.
Beatty also had trouble among fellow Democrats, according to the poll. About 40 percent of Democrats and 47 percent of independents said they don’t like him. Only 3 percent of Republican voters said they viewed Beatty favorably.
Reiner was seen positively by 37 percent of Democrats, compared to 24 percent of those who viewed him unfavorably. But only 24 percent of independents and 10 percent of Republican voters said they liked him.
If I lived in California, and I had to vote for either Reiner or Beatty, I would vote for Beatty…but then, if I had to vote for a chunk of petrified wood or Reiner, I’d go with the wood…Rob Reiner has exactly one great thing under his belt: the hilarious Spinal Tap.
99% of the time he is one of the most arrogant, preachy limousine liberals to ever grace God’s green earth…in fact, if I were Beatty’s adviser, I’d suggest many, many joint appearances with Reiner…he can’t help but look good from the comparison…

To be fair, I think you’d have to put “The Princess Bride,” and “When Harry met Sally,” up on the list there. He may be an idiot politically, but once upon a time he made some fairly hilarious films.
But for Governor? Inconceivable!
I stand corrected…yes, those films were also quite good…
You keep using that word. I do not think it means what you think it means.
What word is that?…
Mark – that’s a line that the late Andre’ The Giant muttered in the movie, in response to Wallace Shawn’s character exclaiming “inconceivable!” throughout the film.
Oh, that’s right…how silly of me, I forgot we were talking about the Princess Bride…
