Do celebrity endorsements make a difference?

Some celebrity endorsements carry more weight than others. It depends on how the celebrity is perceived (air head or not) and their fan base. I've never been star struck so I don't put much stock in celebrity endorsements. Someone I know personally has greater impact on me.

I do enjoy political jokes. However, although I laugh, I still know they are jokes.

During a survey in September, the Center for Media and Public Affairs counted seven times as many jokes about the Republican ticket than the Democratic one.
