Bruce Bartlett is a Republican for Hillary

It's catching on:

At some point, politically sophisticated conservatives will have to recognize that no Republican can win in 2008 and that their only choice is to support the most conservative Democrat for the nomination. Call me crazy, but I think that person is Hillary Clinton.

The article can also be found on National Review Online. But there is also the development of Republicans for Obama which is curious and troubling at the same time:

But in an article in the Washington Post, Kagan wrote approvingly that a keynote speech by Obama at the Chicago Council on Global Affairs was “pure John Kennedy”, a neocon hero of the cold war. In his speech, Obama called for an increase in defence spending and an extra 65,000 soldiers and 27,000 marines to “stay on the offense” against terrorism and ensure America had “the strongest, best-equipped military in the world”. He talked about building democracies, stopping weapons of mass destruction and the right to take unilateral action to protect US “vital interests” if necessary, as well as the importance of building alliances. “Personally, I liked it,” Kagan wrote.

I think Kagan's reading of the speech was wishful thinking, Obama was vague and tried to include something for everyone. My personal feeling is that Obama is a real leftist, especially on foreign policy issues. And this recent piece about Obama's leftist Pastor, who has apparently had a strong influence on him, made me even more concerned. But if Obama does win, I hope Kagan is right.
