It’s official. Barack Obama’s “Hope and Change” campaign slogan has become “Sorry, I Have Other Plans.”

In 2008 some of Hollywood’s biggest names attended the Democratic National Convention in Denver to witness Obama’s accept his party’s nomination for president. Susan Sarandon. Anne Hathaway. Jon Hamm. Jamie Foxx.

Now, with the 2012 DNC just days away, the aforementioned actors are either too busy to attend or can’t officially commit quite yet.

What a difference a failed presidency makes.
