Party Quitters, Morrissey for Obama + More



Last week ...
  • Both the Republican and Democratic parties' ballots got lighter with the exits of former NYC Mayor Rudy Giuliani and former North Carolina Senator John Edwards, respectively. While we were hard pressed to find rockers supporting Giuliani, Edwards did have an impressive roster of celebrities in his corner, including Bonnie Raitt and Jackson Browne.
  • Morrissey has taken to wearing his support for Barack Obama. The singer donned a black t-shirt, which features both Obama and the Moz, onstage at one of his London gigs last week.
  • Tonight, bands OK Go, Shudder to Think, comedian Michael Showalter and more will take the stage in New York to play 'Barack Rock' -- an event put on by GetUpandVote.com.
Stand by for more on who's taking a stand.
