Weird title, me thinks Republicans are jumping ship, not ‘Conservatives’.
‘I stand athwart the rush of conservative ship-jumpers of every stripe neo (Ken Adelman), moderate (Colin Powell), genetic/ironic (Christopher Buckley) and socialist/atheist (Christopher Hitchens) yelling “Stop!” ‘
Those guys were ‘Conservatives’? Lol. Nice one CK.
I DO know several Democrats that are voting for for McCain and a few more that just aren't voting.
Donald Trump
Alma Stanford Head of Democratic Women for 30 years in Tennessee
BLaine Lafferty former editor of Ms. and Time.
John Paul Dejoria and wife huge money backers from Dallas
John Coale Attorney ( Greta's husband)
Silver Salazar from the Political Dynasty in Colorado.
Better bunch than Rino's who left McCain.
OK- Krauthammer has reformed himself in my eyes with this excellent tome. I was a little shaky on his assessment of BO in regard to the debates and praise for BO’s coolness and un-flappability. Good one Charles...welcome back to the fold!
I think you are so right. Republicans are jumping ship not conservatives. Conservatives (me) do not belong to the Republican party as is, however, I am voting for the party because the alternative is not bearable.
Christopher Hitchens has never been a conservative (European liberal,, writes for the nation), however, he was/is pro war on terror including Iraq. So, whatever. These guys are very articulate, and smart sometimes but not always.
