Look at the Hollywood slugs that donated to Wendy Davis. There's only one name that is surprising.

Charles, who would be the one that surprised you as none of the people there surprised me in any way?

Tom Hanks.

As small as the amount was ($250) I wonder if he really endorsed it or if it was just a token from his business manager in his name?
EDIT TO ADD: Apparently he makes a lot of donations to Democratic campaigns

Tom Hanks is a big time obama supporter. He said that not only did obama meet his expectations, but expanded them.

I had no idea! Then he's either a liar or an idiot -- perhaps both.

I do not like Wendy Davis. Election day is approaching fast and I will celebrate the day she loses.

I mentally cut the cord and have had zero use for Hanks when he started making viciously anti-Catholic movies. Got no use for Dan Brown or Ron Howard as well.

I don't see how anyone can support a person as morally bankrupt as Wendy Davis.

Seeing as how hollywood is morally bankrupt it fits nicely.

So true. She's been caught flat out lying about her past and the "hardships" she endured to graduate from college then law school. She bemoaned the heavy burden of school loans after law school, but failed to mention that she filed for divorce from her nth husband
the day after he paid off her school loans! Yep, she's a bastion of honesty, integrity and loyalty. She needs to move to Chicago where she'll fit in quite well.

I think it is a sad commentary she has made it to the general election.

Arch Alpin is the owner and I didn't see his name in the Chronicle article. That doesn't mean he hasn't donated to her or other Democrats, but I'd be somewhat surprised. He seems like a very down to earth guy, but that's what Ike through about William Brennan.
