Since no one else has mentioned it: nice, albeit utterly random, "Extras" reference.

Who is more humor free: Sean or Matt? Matt is a "hunky-hipster"? Tiny hipster maybe...

Maybe this is just some bullshit story concocted by his publicist to give him some media presence before his next film hits the theaters. Oh look, according to IMDB, "Crossing Over" is supposed to be released in December. What a coincidence...

Great rumor; one that makes no sense at all since the election of Newsom is assured. BTW is it only me who thinks Sean Penn looks like a tranny in the article's photo?

It's also way too late for any new candidates to enter the race. So unless Matt reeeely reeeely wanted to do another "Write In" attempt, I'd say that $5 million dollar rumor is totally false.

... did Wonkette just refer to Matt Gonzalez as a "hunky-hipster"?

Aren't the ballots already printed and in the books, so-to-speak?

It's obviously not true. But certainly not unbelievable. This is your democracy folks. Where the rich and powerful get to play their silly little games and persue their personal vendettas. You, me and everyone else can just go f**k ourselves as far as all these ass clowns are concerned. Note to Sean: You don't actually live in San Francisco and you're rich. The effects of the policies of the SF Mayor's office have absolutely no effect on your life. Go have your fun in Marin because no one here gives a f**k.

Wonkette has been publishing a LOT of unsubstantiated nonsense lately, I suspect this is more of the same. Too many pieces of the story just don't add up to anything anyone with any real knowledge of what really went on as the progressives found a new way to completely frak up knows. Besides, Sean Penn is way too cool to blow 5 million on a stupid political campaign. Better to spend it on a movie that kicks ass than some guy who spent all year wandering around pondering the meaning of it all - and of course trying to block anyone else until the last minute from getting in , lest they take away the limelight. Whatever. Congratulations, Mayor Newsom!

Not if it is a committee to elect.

wouldn't that violate the 500.00 limit anyone can give to a politician here in the city? oh, the irony! ;)
