and said it was Palin who put him over the edge. This was on "The View." Can't wait for Elizabeth to have a meltdown.

4. I am listening. He is saying wonderfull things about Obama.
Says his wife is a huge Obama supporter, met him when he was an Illinois senator. He's sure he's done the right thing by voting for Obama. :patriot:

7. He also cited the ugly campaign tactics
mischaracterizing him as a Muslim and falsely associating him with terrorists. Funny, that was *exactly* what Elizabeth was trying to do at the top of the show.

8. I have a feeling this is happening all over the country...
Non-famous Republicans, who don't get to go on TV to talk about it, are doing the same thing Hopper did, in droves.

13. There are an awful lot of anti-Palin Obama votes.
But I cannot imagine a pro-Palin McCain vote from someone who otherwise would have gone with Obama. I also cannot imagine an anti-Biden McCain vote.
