WASP was one of the bands I listened to back in the Metalhead days of my youth. For kicks I was doing some research on Blackie Lawless and found this article he wrote before the '08 election:

The article itself is too long to post here but the general idea is this quote:
In November 2008 he endorsed John McCain in the Presidential election saying, "I will vote for McCain, not because I believe in all he stands for, but as a mandate against Obama, to keep him from becoming President. Yes, I will cling to my guns and my religion, and continue to believe in the Constitution, the Cornerstone of our society and trust that this is STILL a "Government of the People, By the People, For the People"."
I have a new-found respect for the man.
