Baldwin's battle over politics

Alec Baldwin and his acting brothers regularly come to blows over their political beliefs - because they're all passionate Republicans and Democrats.

Alec and brother William are both fervent Democrats, while youngest Baldwin Stephen, a born-again Christian, is a die-hard Republican.

And Stephen, who is backing evangelical Republican presidential candidate Mike Huckabee in the ongoing US race for the White House, says: "Alec said to me recently, `My youngest brother, a Christian conservative Republican. My God, how did that happen?'

"But he's pretty cool with me. I'm the youngest. Sometimes I'm just a dummy or an idiot in his mind about everything. But he still loves me.

"William, though, we can sometimes mix it up (fight) a bit."
