How could we not? But, that may not have anything to do with this endorsement running on the editorial page when it did.
One could check the timing of former Newsday endorsements, but usually newspapers do them in the last week or two before the election. LINY was fully consumed for days before and certainly since with the effects of Sandy.
Some out there still don’t have power. A LINY friend just got her power back today, has to deal with the total loss of her car, flooding on the lower level of her house, and still considers herself one of the lucky ones. I doubt she much cares who Newsday endorses, much less when they did the endorsement.
