(CNN) — Scott McClellan, the former White House press secretary who sharply criticized President Bush in his memoir last spring, told CNN Thursday he's voting for Barack Obama.
"From the very beginning I have said I am going to support the candidate that has the best chance for changing the way Washington works and getting things done and I will be voting for Barack Obama and clapping," McClellan told new CNN Host D.L. Hughley
McClellan, a onetime Bush loyalist whose scathing critique of the president sent shock waves across Washington last spring, has long hinted he was leaning toward the Illinois senator

Isnt That Special?
Traitor. He was prolly playin poker with Powell.
Talk about Bottom of the Barrel
[Insert Gomer Pyle expression here.]
Sounds like he wants a job.
This can only help McCain
MacClellan and Powell are both claiming/admitting they lied us into the war in Iraq.
Funny how Obama’s attracting the admitted liars.
If you were a Democrat, would you trust this guy ? He’ll flip on anyone that doesn’t “value his opinion.” What a sorry little putzhead.
Wow, we sure didn’t see this one coming, did we?
By the way, who cares?
Press Secretary.
EVER!
Ther’s a shocker..............not
Shocked, I am.
I guess when you stab your boss in the back you kind of have a tendency to try do it again and again.
I think that shows his stripes.
Not a surprise from this Son of a ..... Carole Keeton McClellan Rylander Strayhorn who ran as an independent for Texas Governor in 2006.
Yep, this guy really turned out to be a looser. He is now with the RAT party that he deserves.
Since when did CNN hire D.L Hughley as a host/anchor/reporter? He’s a Bill Maher disciple. I like him on SITCOMS, but can’t take him seriously as a news host.
OBTW, Scott McClellan is a douche.
Back stabbers of the world (Powell and McClellan) unite. I would surely want to be associated with people like this, right!
At the rate this is going, an Obama presidency would be a third Bush term.
Judecca, ninth circle
He didn’t just recently become a Dem. He’s been one for a long time.
Disloyal, stupid, ugly and unemployed....He’ll make a good little Democrat!
Frankly, Scott - we don’t give a damn!
Further evidence of Bush’s bad judgement. He failed to clean out the Clintonites when he took office, appointed a bunch of closet Democrats, and then spends his whole administration fighting the backstabbing, second-guessing, and continuous leaks.
His problem was not with Bush then.
At some point he became a democrat and has issue with every GOP member.
Another fool takes the mark of the Beast.
Now that’s a surprise. That ungrateful jerk!
there’s a surprise....yawn
figures.
perp.
Bush certainly has a knack for picking team members that are willing to stab him in the back. Powell being another example.
For all of Bill Clinton’s faults, his people for the most part remained quite loyal to him, even to this day.
What an absolute traitor. I hope he likes to eat crow.
Both McClellan and Powell were fired from the Bush administration, one for incompetence and the other for being disloyal and cowardly. Yes, I am saying that Powell was both disloyal and cowardly for covering up the fact that someone on his staff was the guily party who leaked information about Valerie Plame and Joe Wilson.
that’s a 3 letter word! J-O-B-S!
I think they feared a real knife in the back
of you don’t believe in something (except yourself) you’ll fall for anything (except yourself, which you’ve probably already fallen for...)
thus...
if you don’t don’t believe in something higher than yourself, you will fall for anything...
obviously McC had no chance from the get-go
IMHO, GW could have been a great president if it was not for his insistence on selecting losers as teammates (Powell, McClellan, and others). Rove may be considered a ‘magnificent bastard’ but he sure as hell did not advise well on administrative appointments........
Who cares?? Why is this considered “news”??
What a shock....... not!!!!
Scotty’s been shunned by any self-respecting right of center person. The left is all he has left for friends.
If you remember Bush had been quite successful in working with Dems while he was Gov of Texas ...I think he tried to repeat that strategy and the Dems ate him up
Ding, ding, ding,... we have another winner.
I’m shocked!
What a tool.
As in Special Loser.
Who cares what he thinks.
He most likely was a fraud from day one.
Ever wonder who was leaking so much from the Bush Whitehouse.
Anyone notice the leaking stopped after he left.
Answers a lot of questions...huh.
Could he still be prosecuted for leaking secrets.
Wonder how much damage he did while he was there???
One word: Soros
Scott McClellan is just another pimple on the butt of the body politic. Who cares what a professional flack has to say? Why would anybody care? He is nothing but a hireling and somebody else has hired him. May he rot in hell with the rest of his mediocre media ilk. What did he ever do that was worth what he was paid anyway? Scottie is the sort of parasite that gives that term a bad reputation.
