A top Hillary Rodham Clinton fundraiser threw her support behind Republican John McCain on Wednesday, saying he will lead the country in a centrist fashion and accusing the Democrats of becoming too extreme. Lynn Forester de Rothschild, a prominent Hillary Clinton supporter, will announce her support of Sen. John McCain during a press conference on Wednesday.
Forester, a member of the DNC's Platform Committee and Democrats Abroad chapter, said she will "campaign and help him through the election, but will not switch parties" according to her spokesman.
"I believe that Barack Obama, with MoveOn.org and Nancy Pelosi and Howard Dean, has taken the Democratic Party — and they will continue to — too far to the left," Lynn Forester de Rothschild said. "I'm not comfortable there."
Forester was a major donor for Clinton, earning her the title as a "Hillraiser" for helping to raise at least $100,000 for Clinton's presidential campaign, which she lost to Obama.
