'Conservatives' for Change

The YouTube video features real conservatives who've decided to vote for Obama.
Thing is, all the searches I've done for this group fail to run down who they are and what their actual political philosophies and histories over the years have been. It's one thing to be a RINO or a neocon, and quite another to be a conservative in the sense that you believe in a liited federal government bound not to exceed the powers specifically delegated and enumerated in the Constitution.

This does point out the dangers of the Big Tent pushing the elephant out of the center ring, though. A flashier carnival pulls into town and all the clowns pack into their mini-car and bail on you.
