What if you heard a knock at the door and when you answered Kevin Bacon was standing on your welcome mat urging you to vote for John Kerry? Would you be more inclined to cast your ballot for a flip-flop future with a hamster rescuer?
Well, that’s what a 527 group called Bring Ohio Back was banking on. It figured that if Bacon, Martin Sheen, Marisa Tomei, Steve Buscemi, Gina Gershon or Hilary Swank showed up on your front porch, you’d rush out and register as a Dem.

Musician Jon Bon Jovi (search) says criticism and intimidation won't stop him from speaking out in support of Democratic presidential candidate John Kerry (search), who raised $1 million at the singer's home Monday night.
"I've received hate mail at my house. I've had people drive by my home and shout things out," Bon Jovi told guests gathered outside his home along the Navesink River. "And I think that they question my patriotism because I decided to stand up and have a voice. And I stood up to have a voice because I think that's the most American thing that you can do." More than 300 people attended the fund-raiser, including actors Meg Ryan, James Gandolfini and Steve Buscemi, both of HBO's "The Sopranos," and Richard Belzer of NBC's "Law and Order: Special Victims Unit."
Kerry arrived via helicopter from Atlantic City, where he was staying the night and speaking to an AFL-CIO (search) convention Tuesday morning.
"I know it makes a lot of you nervous," Kerry told the guests, "the idea of my coming here to a fund-raiser, leaving at 8:30 with a million dollars and then 11 o'clock I'm on the news at the blackjack table in Atlantic City. I promise I will not gamble with your money the way George Bush has gambled with the money of this country."

Bon Jovi Hosts Fund-Raiser for Kerry
http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,122681,00.html
John Kerry danced Wednesday night. For only a moment and somewhat awkwardly, but he couldn't help himself.
Kerry had already exceeded that by a cool half-million before he came to Crobar, a club in Manhattan's trendy Chelsea district. Fresh from a gala at the midtown Sheraton, where serious New Yorkers in serious garb handed over $6 million in serious cash, Kerry's $500,000 club fundraiser was icing on the cake.
Hollywood actors Steve Buscemi and Marisa Tomei, both Brooklyn natives, were cavorting in the elite section for elite Democrats.

WASHINGTON - Sen. Barack Obama's advertising team is getting some friendly competition from film pros with some Oscar clout like Ben Affleck and Matt Damon.
"The spirit of the contest is to put into video form what it is that you think will help push Obama over the top," said Iliyse Hogue, the campaign director for MoveOn.org Political Action. "It's a great thing for aspiring ad makers and film makers who want to participate in a meaningful way."
Participants in the "Obama in 30 Seconds" contest will have until April 1 to submit their entries. MoveOn members, which the organization places at 3.2 million people, will be able to vote on their favorites by watching them on the MoveOn Web site. The top 15 entries will then be judged by a panel of liberal activists, recording artists and Hollywood notables.
Among them will be Affleck and Damon, both Academy Award-winning actors and writers. Also judging will be actor Steve Buscemi, film director Oliver Stone, singer songwriters Moby, Eddie Vedder and John Legend, civil rights leader Jesse Jackson and hip-hop entrepreneur Russell Simmons.
