Conservatives endorsing Obama
To name a few:
- Colin Powell, who has some great stuff to say about the Republican party's demonization of Arabs and Muslims. Here is the photo slideshow of soldiers and their families that Powell refers to.
- Christopher Buckley, son of the late William F. Buckley. Christopher has since had to leave the magazine that his father founded.
- Andrew Sullivan was supporting Obama almost a year ago, well before he won the Democratic nomination. Here's one of his more recent articles.
- Right-wing radio host Michael Smerconish, who worked with the George H.W. Bush administration and has subbed for Bill O'Reilly on occasion. More from Smerconish here.
- The Chicago Tribune, which has never before in its 160-year history endorsed a Democrat for president.
- The Los Angeles Times, which hasn't endorsed any presidential candidate since Nixon.
- The Denver Post, which backed Bush in 2004.
- The Salt Lake Tribune, which also backed Bush previously.
- The Houston Chronicle, also backed Bush in '04.
