Hollywood Sweeps Right: Is Obama The Reason?

Hollywood is known for its left leaning poetics, but since President Obama took office, more right-wingers are on the political move. Singer Pat Boone has been a conservative advocate and staunch Republican since the 1950's, but now he is taking his fight against the left to others in the industry. Boone blames Hollywood in part for the move to the extreme left that this country has taken.
Boone describes his celebrity counterparts as living on the "Left Coast," and he's not alone. He has been criticized for his political leanings and his criticism of the liberal dogma. Recently, however, Boone spoke at the CPAC, which is a conservative political action committee, and an estimated 11,000 people attended and heard the message anew.
Do you think it's true that Hollywood is overrun with liberals, and "real people" are in the Heartland of America? Is Hollywood giving its liberal view, while Americans who believe like Pat Boone does, have been ignored?
The CPAC is planning their move now to take control of the next election and bring conservatism back into the mainstream. The pendulum appears to be swinging right again, and President Barack Obama is the man to thank for the "change."
