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.

It gives "permission" to the fence sitters.

You may have a point though, in that the endorsements are simply a reflection of what is happening, than a shaper of it. Reagan certainly get this much traction in 1980, but there were a flurry of non-endorsements nd Anderson endorsements that were effectively the same.

You're right, but it's a CYA move if B.O. wins that will allow them to say, "see? I told you so," when our nation's economy totally collapses and we're all burning their rag in our fireplaces just trying to keep warm at night.
