First, didn't Ashton have an ex that appeared on Leno or Letterman that said she thought it was great that he was with Demi now; that "it proves age doesn't matter.......and apparetnly size doesn't either".
As for the Gay Mafia, you didn't attend alot of high roller Bill Clinton fundraisers back in the day did you? When his approval numbers were in the mid 30's he had two bases that he could count on; gays and people of color. After the fiasco of impeachment when his numbers were back in the 70's (unheard of for a second term president), he didn't forget the the people who had not abandoned him.
And yes, Ashton does remind me of every guy in college dorm/frat houses with too much money, low mental capacity, but could get laid for simply being alive.
