What is this 'newspaper' of which you speak?

One cartoonist is so sure Democrat Barack Obama will win next week's presidential election that he's already pre-drawn a victory strip for publication in next Wednesday's editions of subscribing newspapers.
John Robinson, editor of the News & Record, says the Doonesbury strip "is set in Iraq with his military characters sitting around a television as Obama is declared the next President of the United States."
The Boston Globe says editors are being offered a replacement comic strip if they "don't want to go out on that limb."

He’s been a member of the Looney Left for a long time. He got so preachy about politics that I stopped reading.
It sure would be fun to rub their noses in it.
His name says it all .... Canadians come down here to tell us how to run our country .....
I agree. Either he or I changed, but he went on a sabbatical break for a year or two in the late 70s, and he's been crap ever since. I wasn't even all the political, its just that he lost his funny bone somewhere along the line...(and yet ... they still print his bland 'cartoons').
Media bias? Naawwwwwww /s
This is good. Let them keep claiming victory. It will serve to weaken turn-out for them.
“0bama has won, Dems...you can just stay home and watch more TV and drink more Kool-Aid...don’t worry, it’s in the bag!”
Who cares what Mr. Pauley thinks?
This picture is pushing the envelope with Obama looking a little too Monkeysek wouldn’t ya say?
Baboonish. I like it.
I just think he looks snooty. Another limosine lib.
Tom Brokaw set them up on a blind date..........
Although I would expect most newspaper publishers to delay production of their Page One plates for November 5 until they know who win the election, many newspapers are going to have already printed the comic pages well before that. I suppose newspapers that put Doonesbury on the inside back cover of the front page section (which many do, as an “editorial”) might not have a problem, but those that put it with the comics might have to print it before the election results are known.
Did Mr. Trudeau really think things through?
