Lohan Obama Tweet: Lindsay Comments On Presidential Debate Via Twitter
According to the most recent polls, as many as 2 percent of Americans are still undecided about who to vote for in the presidential election. And it seems there is at least one famous face on that list - Lindsay Lohan.
The 26-year-old actress took to her Twitter account on Monday night to share her thoughts about the third and final debate between presidential candidates Mitt Romney and the incumbent Barack Obama.
Lohan kicked off the evening by sharing her anxiety over the debate before it even began.
"OMG it is HAPPENING!!!!!!!! The Final Debate!!!!! I'm so nervous!" she tweeted.
But the most newsworthy tweet from Lohan can no longer be found on her Twitter feet. Multiple news outlets reported that Lohan retweeted a supportive message for Barack Obama, but she has since deleted the message from her page completely.
The tweet in question originally came from the president's official Twitter account, @BarackObama, and it read, "RT if you're #ProudOfObama as our commander in chief."
It would not be a surprise for Lohan to endorse Obama, as many celebrities have made their opinions known this election season and celebrities tend to lean to the left. But Lohan's tweet came as a shock considering she had previously expressed her support for Obama's Republican opponent.
When she appeared on the red carpet recently and was asked about her thoughts on the presidential election, Lohan said she was planning to vote for Romney.
"I think unemployment is very important for now, so as of now I think [my vote] is Mitt Romney," Lohan said.
Lohan's debate-related tweets popped up occasionally throughout the evening. When Obama called Romney's views out of date and said they belonged in the 1920s, 1950s and 1980s, Lohan made her opinion known.
"1920s, 1950s.... ITS ALL THE SAME, History repeats itself.... Only if you let it," she wrote.
When the debate was over, she tweeted one final time, commenting that she felt she was probably more relieved for it to be over than the candidates.
"Nice work to both @BarackObama and @mittromney... i'm so relieved that its over. Maybe more than both of you..severe anxiety-God Bless xo L" Lohan tweeted.
