Republicans Defecting

And Senator Barack Obama (D-Illinois) is benefiting the most from it.

Take Tom Bernstein, Bush's old friend from Yale who co-owned the Texas Rangers with him. He donated $50,000 to the Republican Party in 2004 and staunchly supporting the President's reelection campaign. Today, he's supporting Obama.

Matthew Dowd, Bush's chief campaign strategist in 2004 is upset with his old boss' policies. Although he isn't endorsing anyone, he admitted he "liked" Obama.

Hillary Clinton is getting the support of one high profile former Bush supporter, John Mack, the chief executive of Morgan Stanley who raised $200,000 for Bush in 2004.

Meanwhile, the offspring of some iconic Republican Presidents are also questioning their own party. Susan Eisenhower, daughter of former Republican President Dwight Eisenhower, Theodore Roosevelt IV, great-grandson of Republican Teddy Roosevelt, and even Peggy Goldwater, daughter of 1964 Presidential candidate and father of modern conservatism, Barry Goldwater, are all irked by today's Republican party and are considering the possibility of endorsing a Democrat next year.
