Actress Melissa Gilbert is dropping out of the race for U.S. Congress in
Michigan's 8th congressional district, citing health problems,
according to sources from the Democratic Party at both the national and
state levels.  




Gilbert, famous for her childhood role of Laura Ingalls Wilder on
"Little House on the Prairie," was up against Republican Mike Bishop.


The
seat encompasses portions of Oakland, Livingston and Ingham counties.
The Bishop campaign mercilessly hit Gilbert on two major issues: A
delinquent tax bill in the hundreds of thousands of dollars and comments
she made about Hollywood director Roman Polanski on "The View."










Go back to Hollyweird loser!!!!!!

I hadn't heard about her running. Just looked it up and now I know why she decided not to run. Not enough plastic surgeons around MI for her. Unless she had some medical issue, dang, she had way too much work done.

Never understood why Hollywood types want to look like The Joker. Maybe its their true persona coming out.

Probably couldn't find enough OPM's to pay for her campaign. You know she won't reach into her own pocket to pay.
Hoping some Tea Party member runs on the R side.

I saw on a documentary that 95% of the SAG is unemployed at any single time, so I can imagine how an actor who has financial stability can make the time to get involved with social programs and politics.
