Former Bush spokesman backs Obama
October 23rd, 2008
Scott McClellan Former White House press Secretary to George W. Bush is supporting Barack Obama.
“From the very beginning I have said I am going to support the candidate that has the best chance for changing the way Washington works and getting things done and I will be voting for Barack Obama and clapping,” McClellan told new CNN Host D.L. Hughley
McClellan, a onetime Bush loyalist whose scathing critique of the president sent shock waves across Washington last spring, has long hinted he was leaning toward the Illinois senator.
“It’s a message that is very similar to the one that Gov. Bush ran on in 2000,” McClellan said in May about Obama’s campaign.

Fact remains that he remained part of the Bush system till it suited him. Now he is seeking greener pastures. If he was a man of strong principles he would not have stayed on.
He is right about Obama's campaign looking and sounding similar to Bush's 2000.
