Some Republicans Emerge To Endorse Obama
Some Republicans Emerge To Endorse Obama
By ELI LAKE, STAFF REPORTER OF THE SUN | March 31, 2008
WASHINGTON — With an eye to the general election and the Pennsylvania primary, some Republicans who oppose President Bush’s war policy are endorsing Senator Obama.
Call them the Obamacans: They are against continuing the Iraq war and reject what they see as Mr. Bush’s unconstitutional buildup of executive power. While the conservative Republican base rejected Senator McCain in the early primaries for his push for bipartisan campaign finance regulation and amnesty for illegal immigrants, the Arizona senator’s hawkish support for the Iraq war has alienated what was once his national constituency, anti-Bush Republicans.
The Obamacans include a former senator of Rhode Island, Lincoln Chafee; a former senior Justice Department official under President Reagan and senior legal adviser to Mitt Romney’s presidential campaign, Douglas Kmiec, and a granddaughter of President Eisenhower, Susan Eisenhower.
The group one day may include Senator Hagel, a Republican of Nebraska, who has co-sponsored Iraq withdrawal legislation with leading Democrats. Asked yesterday on CNN whether he would endorse his party’s presumptive nominee, Mr. Hagel said he would base his support on the candidates’ positions on withdrawing from Iraq.
The Illinois senator’s appeal to anti-war Republicans likely will affect the outcome of the upcoming primaries, especially Pennsylvania, where conservatives are being urged by radio host Rush Limbaugh to vote tactically for Senator Clinton in an effort to prolong the fight for the Democratic nomination.
Of the 140,000 Pennsylvania Republicans and independents who switched registration in the last year to Democrat, the majority are Obama voters, the director of the Franklin and Marshall College poll, G. Terry Madonna, said. Registration for the state’s closed April 22 primary ended March 24. “If 2 million people vote in Pennsylvania, which would be a huge number, I think Obama gets 85,000 to 90,000 switchers,â€Join our efforts to Secure America's Borders and End Illegal Immigration by Joining ALIPAC's E-Mail Alerts network (CLICK HERE)

CRF is going to win no matter what unless people pull their heads out of their 4th point of contact and vote for Ron Paul

RINO Lincoln Chafee?! Don't make me laugh.
The fact is Obama is extremely left wing which his allies in the MSM are hiding. Thanks to talk radio hosts like Mark Levin the truth is getting out about Obama.Join our efforts to Secure America's Borders and End Illegal Immigration by Joining ALIPAC's E-Mail Alerts network (CLICK HERE)

After the truth gets out about Barack Hussein Obama whats left?
For weeks now the talkies have told us that Hillary is a liar, and Barack Hussein Obama's pastor is a bigot. They outed themselves as extreme liberals when they both started ranting about government health care.
Rush is ranting about his Operation Chaos like that is his gift to the world, when in reality the media apparatus is laughing their butts off. Crossover voting started with the dems in Fla giving McCain an edge up. Now Rush will help the dems to pick either one of two libs that the dems will happily back up. Seems to me the dems win. McCain is a manchurian canidate picked by the media, party apparachniks, and the dem cross over voters. Hardly any win for conservitives.
Whatever happened to 'intellectual honesty?'
In the mean time no one talks about Paul or Keyes. Both still viable canidates in the Republican party.
I guess what gets me is there is should be more to talk about than Hillary and Obama. If the talkies started talking about McCain with the same ferver that they have placed on the two far left libs, I guess conservitives would just put a gun to their heads and say adios to the world. They surely would not get much of an education concerning Paul or Keyes on the talky stations. Fox is 'fair and balanced.'
