Like Charlie Crist? [My own state’s guvnah I’ll point out] Not many like him left in the GOP tho.
There are plenty of conservatives, who believe deeply in traditional conservative values, who reject the authoritarian tendencies of the “neo-cons”. Read John Dean’s Conservatives Without Conscience, which was inspired by his hero Barry Goldwater’s The Conscience of a Conservative. He was trying to figure out what these people were, because they sure weren’t conservatives.
He’s been sucking up to Obama since the election. Nothing new here.
