Big. That paper has very good penetration even in Madison, and is definitely lefty.
The paper itself is overpriced and undersized, but the Sudoku puzzles and Jumble on the Take Five page are okay.
Even journalists can’t live like this anymore.
I’m side eying all these liberal papers right now.
The New York Daily News endorsed Romney today as well. That means three out of the four NYC area dailies have endorsed Romney.
God’s blessing.
Can’t lose.
It’s nice to see some major papers flipping but the national problems the cite didn’t just pop up last week. Where were they over the past four years while the country suffered from a complete lack of leadership and the economy steadily worsened? Now, at the eleventh hour, they are suddenly concerned about the sorry state of the country after four years of political failure at the top.
To your question, I’m not sure these “death bed conversions” will have much impact.
The Dayton Daily Democrat has chosen to not endorse at all - they always endorsed the Democrat in the past. When I dropped my subscription after the Clinton endorsement, they called me asking “What would it take to get me back as a subscriber?” I told them they could start by firing their entire editorial staff, especially the ones that moved over into the op-ed page so only one side was presented. They hung up on me.
“”””””This is not an easy endorsement to make.
Obama is the more likeable candidate and inspiring speaker. Obama inherited a mess from his predecessor, Republican President George W. Bush, who was even more disappointing than Obama has been.
Obama got us out of Iraq. He pressured public schools to reform. He gave the final order that got Osama bin Laden.””””
Does this guy write comedy for SNL????
I grew up in Madison. I think H3ll just froze over!
I’m shocked.
Moonbat Central endorses Romney?
What's next? The Rapture?
The ghost of Saul Alinsky lurks behind M/M Obama, the sinister Rahm Emanuel, David Axelrod, Anita "Mao" Dunn, Valerie whatsherface, and the rest of the Ohaha ilk.
They clearly see themselves as "deconstructionists"----savagely committed to tearing down America's traditions.
Every maniacal official govt act is dedicated to chipping away at the bulwark of American freedoms.
They are a virulent anti- American plague of religion haters.......vacant, surly Me-First humanoids who worship at The Church of Whatever Works For Me.
Cadres of self-absorbed, punks squatting in govt are clearly disturbed---obsessed with religious cleansing and kicking so/cons Repubs to the curb.
The Ohaha savages duped the citizenry, led us over a multi-trillion dollar deficit cliff, into massive corrupt bailouts, and atrocities lik amnesty.
The motto: "Everything For Us--Nothing For You."
That same generation inculcated with moral relativity and situation ethics has segued into The Entitlement Generation---or "Pay Me--I'm a Victim."
We need to remember that the obamanoids are ruthless predators w/ no empathy for others and no remorse, anti-social psychopaths who recognize no moral boundaries--aggressively going after what they want, irregardless of the consequences to others.
Paraphrasing Saul Alinsky----the author of evil anti-religious satanism......"they do not have a fixed truth -- truth to them is relative and changing..... they are free from the shackles of dogma."
They see the writing on the wall. President Fail is underwater and the rescue boats are swamped.
These rags are hanging on as best as they can to life support by this endorsement.
Remember, Johnstown is Murtha's old stomping grounds.
Driving around the area, I see lots of Romney signs, "Stop Obama's War on Coal" signs and "Casey=Job Killer" signs.
Encouraging, I think. I hope.
“Obama is the more likeable candidate and is the more inspiring speaker???????????????????”
What planet are they living on? Oh, wait. It must be the planet of Troskyite which revolves around Hades.

From CP Politics ( I guess we can add one more paper)
At least 28 newspapers that endorsed then Sen. Barack Obama in 2008 have switched over this year and endorsed Republican nominee Mitt Romney for president.
As of Friday afternoon, over 100 editorial boards of newspapers had endorsed Romney while Obama had received around 85. Several more will be making endorsements this weekend. Yet the two questions people from analyzers to voters are asking is why did those who endorsed Obama four years ago switch to Romney this year, and will they in turn convince voters with their endorsement?
I agree with other posts here, this is too late. Hope these rags end up like Newsweek. They’ve had all the information to make an informed decision weeks ago. This is CYA BS endorsements, because they’ve seen which way the wind is blowing in their communities. They should be taken to task for not doing a better job informing their communities earlier.
And the NY Daily News, too.
