Crosby and Nash have harsh words for Mitt Romney

(CBS) It seems as if  everyone in Hollywood is coming out to reveal who he'll be voting for come Nov. 6. Perhaps no surprise (given the entertainment industry's supposed liberal leanings), many tend to support President Obama, with a few notable exceptions.

David Crosby and Graham Nash of the classic folk rock group Crosby, Stills, Nash (and sometimes Young) spoke to CBSNews.com at the TJ Martell Foundation benefit in New York about their thoughts on Campaign 2012 .

The two veteran singer-songwriters, long famous as supporters of progressive causes, spoke openly about their dislike for this year's Republican nominee, Mitt Romney.

"We cannot let Mitt Romney be president of the United States at all," Nash said on the red carpet. "[It would be] a disaster," Crosby chimed in.

Find out why Crosby and Nash are so opposed to a Romney presidency by watching our interview with them at the top of this story.

Not much left to say...

Apart from what someone named "Leah" wrote:

>>
President Obama does not believe "that government has an affirmative obligation to care for people, to guide them and make basic decisions for them."

Republicans have been the ones pushing government into the personal medical decisions that should remain between a woman and her doctor, as well as dictating who should be allowed to marry whom.

Economically, Republicans don't seem to understand that during a recession and post-recession, there are not enough jobs for every worker seeking employment--think of a game of musical chairs where there is only one chair for every five people. Only one of them is going to win, and the others? Democrats believe we don't let their children starve, so they should receive SNAP benefits (food stamps), and they're entitled to unemployment insurance. Also, they should still be able to afford to meet their medical needs, which is what the Affordable Care Act includes.

Taking these benefits away won't suddenly make more jobs appear or they'll suddenly be motivated to start their own business. It will just mean they lose their homes and starve to death or die of a treatable illness.

And if you mean they should go back to school and earn a college degree, the cost of higher education soared under our last Republican President, making college unaffordable for a lot of people. I don't know why you think Romney would really do anything differently.
