Republicans For Change: includes essays from prominent Republicans explaining why they will be voting for Kerry this year. The one listed on the front page right now is by John Eisenhower, son of former President Dwight D. Eisenhower.

On their "Conversations with Conservatives" page, you'll find an excerpt from an editor of the The American Conservative endorsing Kerry in their November issue. *

This is -- an election about the presidency of George W. Bush -- in many ways the most radical America has had since the 19th century.

Bush has behaved like a caricature of what a right-wing president is supposed to be, and his continuation in office will discredit any sort of conservatism for generations. The launching of an invasion against a country that posed no threat to the U.S., the doling out of war profits and concessions to politically favored corporations, the financing of the war by ballooning the deficit to be passed on to the nation's children, the ceaseless drive to cut taxes for those outside the middle class and working poor: it is as if Bush sought to resurrect every false 1960s-era left-wing cliché about predatory imperialism and turn it into administration policy.

-The American Conservative: "Kerry's the One"

* Actually, they haven't specifically endorsed anyone. They have handed it over to the editors, each of whom wrote a piece about who they'll be voting for. There's one each for Bush, Kerry, Nader, the Constitution Party, the Libertarian Party, and one for "send a message by not voting at all". Of all of them, I think the last is the most misguided!
