Scott McClellan Endorses Obama

Scott McClellan, President Bush's former press secretary, says he is backing Barack Obama for president.

McClellan made the endorsement during a taping of Comedian D.L. Hughley's new show that is premiering on CNN this weekend. The former Bush administration official said he wanted to support the candidate that has the best chance for changing the way Washington works and getting things done.

He's the second former Bush administration figure this week to publicly back Obama, following former Secretary of State Colin Powell. McClellan caused bitterness among his former co-workers with a tell-all book that criticized Bush.

  1. Scott sold out months ago with his book. He whined about being forced to lie as WH press secretary. What? Was someone twisting this guy's arm? Like Powell, another past Bush Administration figure looking for liberal redemption. Why is this news?
