Testament Guitarist Endorses Obama After Dave Mustaine Picks Santorum

Last week, metalheads across the country shook their heads in disgust when they found out that Megadeth frontman Dave Mustaine
endorsed Rick Santorum in the Republican presidential race. In Music Radar, Mustaine said, “I think Santorum has some
presidential qualities, and I'm hoping that if it does come down to it,
we'll see a Republican in the White House… and that it's Rick
Santorum.” (Then, in Billboard, Mustaine retracted his endorsement. Duh.)

Not that it really matters; Megadeth sucks, and we found the perfect antidote via Testament. According to Gawker, Alex Skolnick, guitarist for the classic thrash metal band, is endorsing Barack Obama.

I endorse Barack Obama. Perfect? No. But after inheriting the
remnants of the Bush Administration — which was responsible for an
illegal, trillion dollar war and a gutted economy — Obama has kept the
auto industry alive, worked to improve the middle class and improve
education. Now, after several years with an uncooperative congress, his
policies are finally taking hold and things are improving (and
incidentally, he's helped take out the most wanted terrorists). I'm not
tied to the Democratic party in any way, its just an honest assessment.
After 8 years of a President (GWB) who could barely formulate a
sentence, we now have someone well-spoken, intelligent and who has shown
a lot of class and dignity. And in the face of unrelenting, unwarranted
personal attacks unseen in the history of the US Presidency, Obama has
never once stooped down to the level of his haters.
