    Rep. Wayne Gilchrest, a maverick Republican from Maryland, endorsed Illinois Democratic Sen. Barack Obama for president in an interview Wednesday with WYPR, Baltimore's National Public Radio station.

    Gilchrest, who lost a primary campaign and is retiring from Congress, has already endorsed the Democrat running for his seat, Frank Kratovil. Justifying his endorsement of Obama, Gilchrest said that "we can't use four more years of the same kind of policy that's somewhat haphazard, which leads to recklessness."

    Obama and his running mate, Sen. Joe Biden (D-Del.), "have the breadth of experience. I think they're prudent. They're knowledgable."

    Gilchrest's reference to prudence may be an allusion to a widely-circulated op-ed written by conservative David Brooks, who questioned whether Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin had the necessary wisdom and prudence.

    He's a lifelong Republican.

    Sorry but him jumping over to Obama is a disaster...even if you doubt his credibility, this guy is a tremendous campaign asset and source of influence for Obama. He has friends and influences...no way his jumping ship is a positive for McCain.

    And the fact that he and Obama are both members of Congress is extremely telling.

    It's not a big deal at all....Maryland was already going to Obama anyway. Plus...he's a loser.

    True...he supports Obama while Rothschild supports McCain...that really says everything about him that you'd ever need to know.
