Barack Obama Refuses Lindsay Lohan Support

According to a report from the Chicago Sun-Times, Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama has turned down actress Lindsay Lohan’s offer of support. The paper reports that the Obama camp refused Lohan with a “thanks, but no thanks” after she offered to host a series of events geared towards young voters.

An Obama source reportedly told the paper that the once troubled actress “is not exactly the kind of high-profile star who would be positive for us.”

Lohan recently hit out at the Republican camp calling their vice presidential hopeful Sarah Palin a “media obsessed homophobe.”

"I really cannot bite my tongue anymore when it comes to Sarah Palin," the 22-year-old, who is rumored to be dating friend Samantha Ronson, wrote. "Is it a sin to be gay? Should it be a sin to be straight? Or to use birth control? Or to have sex before marriage? Or even to have a child out of wedlock?"

According to celebrity gossip site TMZ.com, Obama’s snub to Lohan didn’t go unnoticed by Republican presidential candidate John McCain. The site says McCain spokesman Tucker Bounds told them, “So let me get this straight – they turned away Lindsay Lohan, but Barack Obama has friends like unrepentant terrorist Bill Ayers and convicted felon Tony Rezko? Maybe LiLo is just too upstanding for Barack Obama.”

An Obama spokesperson hit back at McCain saying, “Glad to see they’re focused on the important issues over in McCain HQ.”

Lohan has not commented on the reports.
