I have made an observation in the past that might seem to explain this..

Democrats are in it for the money.

Republicans are in it for the power..

There is ample evidence to support such a conclusion..

The article did manage to mention a few liberal celebrities who had flirted with throwing their hat into the ring (such as Warren Beatty and country music star Tim McGraw)

Tim McGraw is a LIBERAL!!!!

"Honey, burn all the Tim McGraw records!!!"

And now, American Idol runner-up Clay Aiken is the Democratic nominee for a House seat in North Carolina.

Under VERY suspicious circumstances, it should be noted..
