Seinfeld actor stumps for his 'man-crush' as early voting begins in Iowa

- A pizzeria in this small city west of Des Moines was the setting for a celebrity visit Thursday from an actor once famous for talking about nothing.

But these days, Jason Alexander -- who played George Costanza on the TV series "Seinfeld" -- is a surrogate for Barack Obama, and he insists he has a lot on his mind.

"I am hardcore middle class. And I stepped in a puddle. And that puddle was called, 'Seinfeld,'" Alexander told about 50 Obama supporters. He said the job put him in the upper echelons of society.

Alexander told the crowd he has a "man crush" on Obama, who he said he has met several times.
