First of all, let us just say this: Jenna Jameson is not stupid. We interviewed her once on the phone for about 45 minutes and it was a lively and totally intelligent conversation.

As you may have heard, she said something in early August, at an event at a strip club, it went like this: ”When you’re rich, you want a Republican in office.”

And people went ballistic. People — Twitter people, trolls, people who throw slurs and judgment at celebrities they’ll never see face to face — jumped all over Jenna for “endorsing” Mitt Romney.

Well, you don’t jump all over Jenna, not in the figurative sense. Jenna fights back. So the more everyone told her that, as a porn star, she could not possibly want Mitt Romney to be President, the more she pushed back. And now here we are on Election Day and Jenna Jameson is — what? Well, you know that whackadoodle aunt you have who forwards you all the political emails about how the President was born in Kenya and his daughters burn American flags for fun?

We’re not saying Jenna is that whackadoodle aunt of yours… but she might forward a few of those emails.

This will pass. We as a nation will make it through this election, and some sort of normalcy will return.

Will Jenna return? Because sometimes they don’t. Sometimes when a celebrity goes to a political extreme, and catches a lot of heat for it, they are forever changed. Jenna may forever be planning family vacations with Ted Nugent, Kirk Cameron, and Stephen Baldwin.

We don’t know. Dammit, we just don’t know.
