Here’s another painful reminder that not everyone was happy with the Obama nomination.
Two prominent democrats will lead the “New Hampshire Democrats for McCain” organization.
PolitickerNH reported:

Two well-known New Hampshire Democrats have endorsed the Republican Party’s presumptive presidential nominee. Jim McConaha and Valery Mitchell, who have pledged their support to U.S. Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.), will serve as co-chairs of “New Hampshire Democrats for McCain.”

The announcement comes the day before U.S. Sen. Barack Obama (D-Ill.), McCain’s presumptive general election opponent, campaigns in New Hampshire with U.S. Sen. Hillary Clinton (D-N.Y.).

McConaha was a political appointment of President Clinton and served as New Hampshire director for the federal Farm Service Agency and was recently a member of U.S. Sen. Chris Dodd’s presidential Steering Committee.

Mitchell was a member of John Kerry’s Steering Committee in 2004 and also supported Dodd in 2008. She is a former organizer of the Democratic Network.

“It was not easy to step away from my party in the McCain-Obama race, but I want a president whose judgment we know and trust, and a leader who will do what is in the best interest of our country without regard to politics or ideology,” Mitchell said in a campaign press release.

McConaha also cited McCain’s judgement.

“This is the most important job in the world. We need a leader of proven competence, tested judgment and substantial experience in the modern world and, obviously, that is John McCain.”
