With all of Kerry's flip flops, and his current standing in the Polls.... I wouldn't be surprised to see the left abandon Kerry and endorse George W. Bush

Yep. It will be <drumroll.... JOHN FORBES KERRY! (I'm so excited at their break with tradition - like their preference for him was a secret). (laughing)

Been living out here in LA County for 22 years and dropped this liberal rag so long ago it's not funny ... I relish the annual phone calls for a subscription to tell them why I don't and never will.

I broke down today at lunch, desperate for something to read, and bought one .. man am I sorry, on the front page disquised as 'presidential race coverage' are two anti-Bush hit pieces, opening up to two whole pages inside about all this crap on Bush being AWOL and staying stateside, etc.

My apologies to the world for giving this rag 50 cents today ... I had a week moment ... I should have torn the label off my t-shirt and read it, it would have been much more enlightening!!

No really, there is suspense. They say they don't know who they'll endorse because, "There is a diversity of views."

Hmmmmmm....Kerry, Nader or Castro.

This might bring Kucinich back into the race and be just the thing to put him over the top to reach the White House.

Since they rail about Bush daily I don't think this one is too tough to figure out. We don't call them the LA Slimes for nothing.

I read the whole link. It doesn't sound like he's the man to turn the paper around or to take it to the next level. I expect then that the LA Times to slip into further obsolescence. Good thing the Chandler's cashed out when they could.

Oh gee, let me guess........hmmmmm......who do you suppose they will endorse?

Oh wait! I've got it!!! I'll bet they endorse Kerry, because he's going to be so strong on fighting terrorism, and the LA Times will feel so much safer with him in the WH. Yeah, that's it.

Actually, I'd wager they endorse Bush, but purely for marketing purposes.

As if people don't already know the LA Times supports Kerry! I don't even read it and can tell you that.

I think you've got it all wrong. They won't endorse Kerry. He's too conservative. Nope. Its Al Gore for them.

You've been living in L.A. for 22 years? Man, that takes guts! How in the world have you managed to remain a Republican?
I visit the place for a couple weeks and I get that 'dirty' feeling, and it just doesn't go away util I take a shower in another state. There are just too many loony lefties there. I think the only hope for that entire coastline is if it cracks off and falls into the sea.

( Just kidding you, I know there are alot of good conservative minded people there)
