Who CB votes for this year isn't going to be an issue: you can only play that "Republican for the Democrat" card once without it getting stale and people pointing out that by now you already are a Democrat.
FWIW, "Sorry, Dad I'm Voting For Obama" was the name of the column, but "Dad" had already died months earlier. I don't know if reading it would have killed WFB or not, but Junior was playing it safe.
FWIW, another 2008 Obamican, William Weld, has endorsed Romney. Not sure Republicans actually want his endorsement or if it will do Romney any good.
Wick Allison, who was publisher of National Review in Buckley's day, has already endorsed Obama (after withdrawing and reinstating his 2008 endorsement -- guess he has a lot of time on his hands), as has Buckley colleague Jeffrey Hart.

I did not know that Jeffrey Hart, whol wrote several conservative books in the 1980s, and one about the American commitment to sports, had turned left.
