If you feel like there's any point, knock yourself out. Last I checked, this is a Meat Loaf forum.
If 'other people use their celebrity to tell people how to vote so Meat Loaf should too' is your justification, I must say I find it to be a pretty weak one. Other celebrities go on Celebrity Big Brother too. Other celebrities mime to backing tapes in their concerts. Other celebrities don't attract a mixed audience of young and old and men and women to the degree that Meat Loaf does. Other celebrities don't put as much effort into their shows as Meat Loaf does, and few attract such fanatical devotion from their audience.
I don't think there's anything brave or admirable about telling people how they should vote or acting like your status in music, TV, movies or anything else should sway them to your opinion. I find that to be pompous and ridiculous, whoever does it.
