I get that they are reliably liberal and will hold all the right positions but WTH.....Jake Tapper of cnnBS interviews Dave Mathews (a mediocre musician) about large events and the ChiCom virus?!?!? Yeah, he's who I would go to for my epidemeology expertise....not.  I swear they are just want to be able to tell their friends that they are buddies with [fill in the blank celebrity] so everyone oohs and ahs and asks them what they are like.

Do they really think many people are going to be swayed by someone that gets paid to pretend to be someone else, or sing or play some sport?  It's a sad commentary on our society if they can but I think they repel far more people than they attract.
