WARNING: Today's article is rife with subjective comments.
The youngest of the “Baldwin brothers”, Stephen is the annoying conservative one (and therefore also the most interesting one to read about). The Baldwins have been known in Hollywood for the past 25 years for their ability to suck at acting (with the obvious exception of Alec, the oldest), and Stephen is certainly no different. However, his off-screen antics, which have dominated most of his time for the past decade, are what has kept him in the limelight. In 2006, he led a campaign to prevent an adult bookstore from being opened in the small town in which he resides. He's popular in the US among fellow “evolutionary skeptics”, and like most of them, seems unfazed by the unshakable science behind evolution. During the 2008 presidential election, Stephen endorsed the McCain/Palin ultra-conservative dream team until they lost. In fact, Sarah Palin herself remarked to his brother, Alec, that Stephen was her favorite Baldwin brother. Well, that seals the deal for me...hopefully Stephen sticks around, as he seems just as good at entertaining us in this world as his brother is in all the imaginary ones.
