There were several New York and Washington full-page advertisements of prominent Republicans listing their names and recommending not voting for McCain, but for Obama. It's not that unusual. Has happened in previous elections, where long-time party faithfuls go rogue in a public way.

Your listing is simply a campaign ad, though, paid for by Romney. Voters switching parties isn't unusual.
