Mario Cantone: No McCain/Palin lovin'

Joining Matt Damon, Lindsay Lohan and Pamela Anderson, comedian Mario Cantone is the latest celebrity to express his distaste for Republican presidential nominee John McCain and his vice presidential pick, Sarah Palin.
“If I was voting for McCain, I should just take a syringe of air and pump it into my vein and kill myself or put myself in quarantine, which is what they want to do anyway,” Cantone told us, referring to McCain’s stance on gay rights.
The “Sex and the City” star, who we caught up with at the "Sex" DVD premiere Thursday, called vice presidential nominee Sarah Palin a “horror." He also poked fun at Palin’s 17-year-old daughter’s husband-to-be, Levi Johnston.
"I call him the sperm," Cantone said. “That first night [in the public spotlight] he was like a deer in headlights, and then the second night, he’s like, ‘Yo, I’m famous. I’m a f------ redneck.’”
