I remember working an Obama campaign phone bank with couple of other Republicans-turned-Democrat and one or two of them were ex-Nixon Republicans. Nevertheless, we all pitched in to get Barrack Obama re-elected, even if we fought down our impulse to give our best Richard Nixon imitations when we called our fellow Americans and asked them to help re-elect the President.
