A former Clinton supporter and DNC Convention delegate is openly supporting John McCain!
JS Online and LGF Quick Links reported:
As an avid supporter of Hillary Rodham Clinton in the Democratic primaries, Debra Bartoshevich is not alone in her frustration over Clinton's defeat.More... Democrats respond and kick her out of the convention.
She’s not alone in refusing to support Barack Obama.
And she’s not entirely alone in saying she’ll vote this fall for Republican John McCain instead.
But what makes her unusual is that she holds these views as an elected delegate to the Democratic National Convention in Denver this summer.
“I’m sure people are going to be upset with me,” said Bartoshevich, a 41-year-old emergency room nurse from Waterford in Racine County, and convention delegate pledged to Clinton.
Joe Wineke, chairman of the Democratic Party of Wisconsin, reacted with disbelief when first told Friday afternoon that one of his state party delegates is now a McCain supporter.
“Not a delegate? To the national convention?” said Wineke, who was getting ready for the start of the Wisconsin state party convention Friday in Stevens Point.
“We have a Clinton national (convention) delegate who says she’s voting for John McCain?” Wineke repeated, for clarification. “I’ve never heard of such a thing.”
Matt Lira tries to be helpful: "You may know Democrats and Independents who want to support John McCain – be sure to invite them to sign up today at--

ReplyDeleteGod Bless Her!!
that took courage.. (thumbsup)
she committed a cardinal sin according to DNC religion (my theory about the fanatical Obamessiah cult.. it's a mind blinding cure for BDS)..

I can respect anyone who crosses party lines to act upon convictions that they are doing it for the "best interest of the United States."
ReplyDeleteShe can teach a thing or two to our politicians.
The question is how many are doing the same thing but not making a public statement about it. I am going to guess perhaps 25% of the non Obamaniac delegates.
ReplyDeleteIf Obama and the DNC think they can BS their way out of how they treated Hillary and her supporters they have another thing coming. These people are are angry and are not stupid enough to fall for the "We're sorry we insulted you and treated you like the sexist pigs we are-now sit down and do what we tell you like a good little girl" crap. All one has to do is look at the dead cat bounce Obama got in the polls to see the Dems are in trouble.
i think mccain will be allected anyway. if not noe.. ameicans will realise that obama is to scarry
ReplyDeleteThis woman is obviously seeking attention. To choose John McCain who is diametrically opposed to Hillary Clinton's positions and reject Obama who shares 95% of Clinton's positions is beyond retarded. It indicates this woman is a neurotically impelled attention seeker who is not committed to changing anything for the better, but is angry and vindictive and ideologically vacuous.
