Conservative Democrats Boren, Nunn shift their support from NYC mayor to Obama.
  • Big asset

    Sam Nunn is exactly the kind of conservative that any (especially a more liberal) Democrat would be delighted to have on their team — he's principled, if somewhat benighted at times, intelligent, and independent of the taste for fascism among some of his ostensible fellow conservatives. He's a huge asset to any Democratic administration.

    Most of all, he doesn't screw around when it comes to military matters — except, perhaps, when it comes to screwing around in the military. But hopefully time and tide (and retirement from service to his former constituents) have softened his stance.
