Did you know a former Bush backer is writing a Pro-Obama book?

The conservative Evangelical biographer of George W. Bush and Tom DeLay has moved on to a new subject: Barack Obama. And his new book, due out this summer, may lend credibility to Senator Obama's bid to win Evangelical Christian voters away from the Republican Party. The forthcoming volume from Stephen Mansfield, whose sympathetic "The Faith of George W. Bush" spent 15 weeks on the New York Times bestseller list in 2004, is titled "The Faith of Barack Obama." Its tone ranges from gently critical to gushing, and the author defends Obama-and even his controversial former minister, the Rev. Jeremiah Wright-from conservative critics, and portrays him as a compelling figure for Christian voters. Young Evangelicals are saying, 'Look, I'm pro-life but I'm looking at a guy who's first of all black-and they love that; two, who's a Christian; and three who believes faith should bear on public policy," Mansfield, who described himself as a conservative Republican, said in a telephone interview. "They disagree with him on abortion, but they agree with him on poverty, on the war."

1. Obama's family values and head and shoulders above McCain's sleazy life style many former bush backers and Reagonites are backing Obama
2. I read that earlier today. More and more are leaving the dark side and migrating toward the light.
3. Yea i knew Tom Delay is voting for obama, But I also heard Lieberman has turned his back on Obama.
4. I think after 8 years of support what did conservatives get? 5 dollar gas their traditional jobs outsourced no help whatsoever about the borders and illegal Immigration! increasing national debt increasing inflation wasteful budget I think with this track record you'll see a lot more Republicans just ship but hey atleast they got 2 extra seats on the Supreme court.
5. People will do anything for money.
