Very ouchy. But that doesn't sound like "backing away", that sounds like an out and out refutation to me. Maybe they had some idea this would happen, making it part of the reason they pulled out of Michigan?
GRAND RAPIDS -- He endorsed John McCain in the presidential primary, but now former Republican Gov. William Milliken is expressing doubts about his party's nominee.
"He is not the McCain I endorsed," said Milliken, reached at his Traverse City home Thursday. "He keeps saying, 'Who is Barack Obama?' I would ask the question, 'Who is John McCain?' because his campaign has become rather disappointing to me.
"I'm disappointed in the tenor and the personal attacks on the part of the McCain campaign, when he ought to be talking about the issues."
Milliken, a lifelong Republican, is among some past leaders from the party's moderate wing voicing reservations and, in some cases, opposition to McCain's candidacy.

Interesante. Now we only need a few more!
Like rats from a sinking ship. Did you read that William F. Buckley's son is going to vote for Obama. Daily Beast article.
Every once in a while, a Replican is reunited with common sense and honor... Rare, but occasional... and looks like this former Governor has seen the light. D
good 2 hear from some Republicans with a sense of patriotism and decency.
