Ashley Judd Is Going To Be A Politician

In a little over two months, Ashley Judd is going to announce that she is running for US Senate in Kentucky. This is a woman who hates paps and reporters and does everything she can to avoid them. She is not a huge fan of meeting with her fans so I am really clueless as to why she would want to run for US Senate. Publicity? Big ego stroke? realizes acting career is in the toilet? Jealous because Wynona is on Dancing With The Stars? Ashley is going to have her life gone through with a comb and if she thinks she can hide the stuff that she has done or that reporters would not be able to find it, she is going to be surprised. I will be surprised if she makes it through the summer without quitting.

    Jeneral, me too! I'm a Kentuckian and I would almost vote for a potato over McConnell. You can say what you want about her,but even with all her secrets she's cleaner than our politicians. Maybe she's running because she actually wants to change things for the state of Kentucky. If you don't live here, you can't know what we deal with as residents. Our outlook is bleak. We need some kind of change and she might have pockets deep enough to give him a fight.

    Shame on you, Enty, for being one of those people who judges politicians or aspiring politicians for personal indiscretions. What the hell has Ashley Judd done that is so bad that it makes her worse than a career politician? How do you think Mitch McConnell got to be the Senate Minority leader? Charm and good looks? His vast intelligence? P-shaw!

    If we continue to make it so that you have to be Jesus, practically, to run for office, then the only people we're going to get are power mad nerds who want to run for office just to make the popular girls from high school mad. And...so far...they've pretty much made things suck for us.

    Stop trying to make an issue out of shit that doesn't matter, like a person's sex life, and start considering things that DO matter, like...who a politician is serving -- himself, his millionaire donors or the good for society.

    I'd rather have 100 sluts and mediawhores in the Senate than 100 out-of-touch old men who say things about rape not being legitimate.

    Ashley Judd is intelligent and articulate. She has been an advocate for women and girls for years through her partnership with PSI and YouthAIDS. Guess what: she became an educated advocate even before Saint Angelina Jolie did. Yep, her friendship with Bono inspired her many years ago. She would be a great senator for Kentucky.

    Judd is a Democrat taking on a hated Republican. The MSM will cover up and ignore everything even remotely negative about her. Al Franken is a mental case who should be locked up and he won in his state because no one called attention to his erratic behavior. Judd will get a free ride as well, if not outright help.

    A great deal of Senate work is not giving speeches and appearing on television shows. In addition to the usual back-room bargaining, there's a lot of constituant service involved. It can be as individual as helping a kid in your state get into West Point (candidate nominations come from Senators and Representatives) or as political as XYZ town in your state has a widget plant, and wants more federal orders for widgits, or wants to you to stop a new law regulating widgits.

    Anyway, as Enty points out, politics is about people, people, people. You are constantly surrounded by people and need to manage a large staff of people. And you need to do a lot of kissing ass to get anything done.

    If Ashley Judd isn't a people person - which her career so far seems to indicate - she'll be a lousy senator. I really don't care if she blew the entire U Kentucky basketball team - I don't think its relevant.

    When I lived in NYC, Hilary Clinton was my senator, and I was not too keen on her when she was elected, because she had never lived in the state. But she really won my respect. She constantly visited the troubled cities and towns of upstate New York and did her very best to serve them. Would Ashley Judd do that?

      No, Ashley Judd is a terrible person, known for being borderline abusive towards her staff, refuses to allow lesser people to speak to her unless she's specially granted them that privilege, will make eye contact with you and ignore you if you attempt to ask her a direct question, is an emotional wreck who required constant assurance from her handlers, is supposedly unable to perform basic functions such as taking a shower and getting dressed without a handler to prop her up and talk her through it. I don't know that she has the emotional fortitude to be a politician (or do any job where she has to talk to people). It's not because she's a woman, it's not because of her personal life (I don't care if she's promiscuous or married or divorced or what) I simply don't think she has anyone's best interest in mind, and she is known for being one of the craziest bitches in Hollywood, and that's saying something. If she is the lesser of two evils that is incredibly bleak.

    My problem with Judd would have nothing to do with her personal life, but rather that I see her as a pseudo-false intellectual who thinks she's smarter than she actually is. Along with that, I believe her to be out of touch with the regular person, as well as seeming to have a lack of ability to accept/handle criticism of any sort. Lastly, it is my opinion that she follows what she believes to be trendy, rather than any strong personal convictions.

    That's just how I see her, and IMO that all makes for a poor politician. I wouldn't want her representing me.

  46. Scallywag12:56 PM

    @Sherry, don't you think all candidates whether actor or attorney or pizza company owner run because they think they can effect change?

    @Amy, Ashley Judd has a Master's in Public Administration from the JFK School of Govt at Harvard. She has been a national convention delegate and done a lot of campaigning for Democratic candidates. She's worked with YouthAIDS as a global ambassador for 10 years and with other global NGOs working for the rights of women and against genocide. So I would say she has as much or more background as many other candidates.

    @Dale hale, funny you should say that as certain people like to complain about the 'Hollywood Elite' but who elects Hollywood types like Reagan, Bono, Schwarzeneggar, Thompson?

    Whatever we think of her as a celebrity Ashley Judd is an intelligent woman and has prepared for a role in public service. Can she or any Democrat beat McConnell? Perhaps. If the Tea Party run someone against him in the primary he will have to veer far right and then Judd can claim the center. And I'm convinced that Harry Reid left filibuster reform on the table so that McConnell could get hoisted on his own petard and have to run against being the source of all Senate intransigence.

    @Topper, I would agree but clearly party people are coming to her encouraging her to run and providing backing for her to run. So should she say "No, I'd rather run for mayor of Lexington"?

    This is not an endorsement of Ashley Judd, rather an endorsement of people from all walks of life participating in public service. The problem isn't just the notion of career politicians placing re-election over country. The vast majority of the people who have left the Senate in the last several years have gone either to Wall Street or K Street (meaning lobbyist firms). So from governing to influence peddling in one step. If you don't like what's going on, step up.

Sadly, my friends in the business say it has gotten much worse, no one wants to work or deal with her, hence her move to politics.

She's also one of the ugliest women out there, her mouth looks like a puckered anus and her face is bloated and laughable due to all the plastic surgery/fillers. I hope an asteroid falls on her and Mitch McConnell (and nobody else gets hurt), he's a yellow fever scumbag who's married to a bitch who sent our jobs to her home country of China when she was Secretary of Labor so fuck them both.

    All I know is the radio personality I listen to in the morning went to an event in Hollywood that AJ also attended. She was sitting in a chair outside waiting for his car when she came out to get hers. Apparently, with everyone leaving at the same time, it was taking quite a while to get the cars out. This radio personality stood up and said, "Ms. Judd, would you like my chair?" She gave him a really dirty look, turned to her assistant and said, "tell that man that he is not to speak directly to me or to look directly at me."

    To this day, that radio personality, who used to be a huge fan, LOATHES her. And has, since telling g his story, heard quite a few other less than flattering things.

    She may be smart, but I don't like her because she treats the "little people" like shit. Maybe she'd be a good politician, who knows? But it's hard to respect someone who acts like that and I suspect many more stories will come out of the woodwork if she runs.

    Back when Ashley was still in starlet shape she supported her sister on an Oprah episode, one where Wynonna discussed her troubled life, her mother keeping her real father's identity a secret for most of her life and her lifelong weight problem, by sitting in the audience wearing a sexy spaghetti strapped barely there dress. She apparently left her bra in her hotel room.

    I was so taken aback by it I called a friend and told her to turn it on to see if she was seeing what I was seeing. She agreed there was some passive aggressive sibling rivalry stuff going on. That's why I now laugh at her current complaints regarding how the media treats the way her looks have evolved.

    I know politics gets Cdan peeps good and riled up in the first place, add a controversial celebrity and we've got a hot mess on our hands. If anything, the language is pretty over the top in some comments. Calling a woman the C word is the ultimate insult and you posters who wrote that know it. I sincerely hope you're not female. I'd be even more disappointed as you are simply breaking a woman down to her genitalia, regardless if who she is. I'm open to listening to all sides but you lose me when the argument goes that route.

    One more thing: I was really disgusted by what Himmmm wrote in the thread linked above.

This may be an unpopular opinion due to Himmmm's heralded status on here by many, but that was straight up awful and you cannot justify that in any way.

    His story about loving and thanking the sitter who abused him sexually was creepy and wrong. Some things you keep to yourself, and so many readers on this board have had traumatic abuse underage and after that I'm pretty sure it triggered some people besides myself.

    @scallywag - Bill O'Reilly has the same degree. It doesn't hold anywhere near the same prestige as a true Harvard degree. It is a bought and paid for diploma without the work to back it up. Sorry to rain on that parade.

    @annabella - Really? Success is having a show that less than 900,000 people watch? Even Ashley's ABC show had more viewers.

    Regardless of what I think of Mitch McConnell (and regardless of the sex of the celebrity), I hate seeing celebrities step into politics at this level without having worked their way up through the system. She has never done anything more than repeat what others have written for her. If this gets to debates, she is going to be obliterated - as would most celebs. She needs to start small if she is serious about serving. Start with mayoral or state level legislatures and earn respect instead of trading off her celebrity for votes.

    @annabella sorry but as a resident of the state of Massachusetts, trust me we all CRINGE CRINGE CRINGE when we hear any hint of Affleck for senate.

    As should the people of KY. As bad as McConnell is, Ashley Judd is not the solution. Is she smarter than a majority of actresses (based on her interviews and her recent post-graduate degree at Harvard's JFK School-- although agreed, it is not the same as Harvard Harvard)? It would seem so. Is she also completely looney tunes batsh*t? Um, yeah. Case in point, the recent interview she did on Anderson Cooper's talk show where she stuffed her face with cupcakes while talking about world hunger, with food in her mouth. Literally. It was WILDLY inappropriate. You can tell she thinks she is the smartest and best person around, and if other gossip sites are accurate, the stuff that @Principessa brought up is for real. So I dunno who I would rather have, a old guy who is going to die soon anyway (MM) or a batshit crazy lady who may be in the senate for a long time. Since Dems hold a majority now... if these are the only two options... sad as it is were I in KY I would vote against party just because I cannot abide the idea of a person like her having any amount of actual political power. I liked her better when she was just a cute kid who liked the Wildcats.

    (and come on if she was that into it that day I doubt it was just the players she was messing with... ahem Rick Pitino)

    I'd vote for her. The steaming turds of misogyny in this thread don't surprise me in the least. How dare a woman aspire for anything more? So what if she's an asshole--so are all the white male pieces of trash that run every damned thing. I'll bet that she doesn't worship Moloch or rape children. The less men in power, the better off we'll be.
