Americas heart, soul, brains and muscle the middle- and working-class people who make this nation great have been beset for too long by sapping economic decline.
So, too, New York breadwinners and families.

Revival of the U.S. as a land of opportunity and upward mobility is the central challenge facing the next President. The question for Americans: Who is more likely to accomplish the mission Barack Obama or Mitt Romney?
Four years ago, the Daily News endorsed Obama, seeing a historic figure whose intelligence, political skills and empathy with common folk positioned him to build on the small practical experience he would bring to the worlds toughest job. We valued Obamas pledge to govern with bold pragmatism and bipartisanship.
The hopes of those days went unfulfilled.

Wow. The NY Post endorsed Mitt too, right?
This has got to be wormwood and gall for them.
If you knew how far-left the Des Moines Register is, that would’ve floored you...
Duers are going to freak out again... 3 out of 4 NEW YORK CITY papers endorsed Mittens!!!!!
Zuckerman made a U-Turn very quickly. Back in 2010 he called Obama administration is hostile toward business.
Obama's Anti-Business Policies Are Our Economic Katrina
I am probably more surprised about Long Island Newsday. Newsday has been as liberal as NY Times in the past.
Is this the medias way of getting even with Barry for being his lapdog for 4 years?
Looks like they let Barry get in their pants and they didn’t even get a dinner. Question becomes, if Barry does win, will they still be his b*tch?
OMG, this is monumental! Not that it will change minds, but because if this can happen, it means everyone but the dead enders is against Obama. For them to do this means Obama is toast, it doesn’t cause him to become toast.

Is it 4 out of 5? (counting WSJ)
So, this is the score card of the endorsement game among the 100 biggest newspaper in the US. So far, 0bama received 38 endorsements, while Romney 32. However, there are 18 newspapers that endorsed him in 2008 but did not this year. So, out of the total 56 that endorsed him that year, more than 30% choose not to. Of those who decided not to endorse 0bama, 11 (or about 20%) went to Romney.
wow.
DU heads are popping like pimples
Valerie Jarrett just put the Post on her revenge list.
Wow. I’m surprised. I’m unsure how influential newspaper endorsements are today. But surely, every candidate prefers to get these endorsement. I’d like to see a total roll up of the endorsements and how many of them have changed from 2008 pro-Obama to 2012 pro-Romney.

BTW- I am giving 296 Electoral Votes to Mitt Romney in my best guess.
