Newspaper endorsements switch from Bush to Obama

By GottaLaff


After 8 years of Bushage, change is mandatory:
Editor and Publisher notes that Sen. Barack Obama (D-IL) has a significant lead over Sen. John McCain (R-AZ) in newspaper endorsements — 121-42. At least 26 papers that supported President Bush in 2004 have moved to Obama, versus just four that supported Sen. John Kerry (D-MA) switching to McCain. “In California alone, the Obama-Biden ticket picked-up six newspapers that endorsed President Bush in 2004. He also gained a few papers, such as the Los Angeles Times and Cleveland’s Plain Dealer that did no[t] endorse either candidate in 2004.”
The question is, why would any paper switch from Kerry to Gramm-pa? Or to put it another way, why would anyone support Gramm-pa, period?
