My local paper, The Montgomery Advertiser, has, naturally, endorsed Obama this morning. They are a USA TODAY/Gannet newspaper, so I can't post their sorry rational for it.

This is my state, Alabama, that has some of the HIGHEST numbers for McCain, who leads here 62% to Obama’s 33%. A very conservative state, made up of people who love this country (sends, percentage wise, more of her sons and daughter into the US Military than any other state). But of course, they'll rub our noses in it, by endorsing the Zero. We're all a bunch of dumb, racist rednecks, don't you know.

Thankfully, their subscriptions, sales, and above all advertising is dropping like a flying brick.

My local paper only endorses dims. I only buy the Sunday paper, and that only occasionally. I got fed up with all of the negative political cartoons about W. I have noticed that in the ‘Letters to the Editor’, some are bashing o.

Are you sure that you didn't move to Pennsylvania?

Our local paper is also Gannet owned, yesterday’s headline; “Huge Landslide for Obama”. This is Ohio, we don’t need these predictions.

Speaking of endorsements by newspapers, the Dallas Morning News endorsed McCain.

Their entire news coverage had, however, been grossly slanted Obama. It’s been my experience with them that this is their modus operendi. At the last minute they come in with a conservative endorsement as though this will excuse their previous sins.

Well, they got kicked off the plane, along with the Washington Times and the New York Post, both of which endorsed McCain.

I wondered if they would even mention this. They did, on an inside page, and were full of excuses for Obama. Said it wasn’t political, just ran out of room on the plane.

Hah!

This also shows the mindset of the Obama camp. Question or disagree and you will be carted off to prison during the night. Well, or at least you’ll be thrown off or under the bus and state agencies will be assigned to investigate you.

And don’t even think about not keeping your taxes in order.
