Des Moines Register Endorses Rubio and Clinton in Iowa Caucuses
Source: Bloomberg
U.S. Senator Marco Rubio and former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton received potential boosts to their presidential bids in Iowa by winning the endorsements of the Des Moines Register, the dominant newspaper in the state where the Feb. 1 caucuses will start the 2016 nomination voting.
"Rubio has the potential to chart a new direction for the party, and perhaps the nation, with his message of restoring the American dream," Iowa's largest newspaper said in an endorsement of Florida Republican published on its website Saturday evening. "We endorse him because he represents his party’s best hope."
On the Democratic side, the newspaper's editorial said this of Clinton: "No other candidate can match the depth or breadth of her knowledge and experience."
The editorial made note of Clinton's top rival, U.S. Senator Bernie Sanders of Vermont, and the emotional appeal he's generated in the party: "In the final analysis, Iowa Democrats will have to choose between the lofty idealism of Bernie Sanders and the down-to-earth pragmatism of Hillary Clinton. For some, this will be a choice of whether to vote with their hearts or their heads."

The source of Santorum's essence is from the deepest recesses of humanity.
they endorsed ALL losers. Sorry, love all our canidadets, but this endorsement doesn't mean anything. Feeling the Bern. 
"The presidency is not an entry-level position. Whoever is sworn into office next January must demonstrate not only a deep understanding of the issues facing America, but also possess the diplomatic skills that enable presidents to forge alliances to get things done.
By that measure, Democrats have one outstanding candidate deserving of their support: Hillary Clinton. No other candidate can match the depth or breadth of her knowledge and experience.

Sanders has tapped into the public’s anger and frustration with Washington, without demonizing government and resorting to the cheap demagoguery favored by Donald Trump and others. He has shown himself to be a man of courage and principle who has the ability to rally others to his cause.
But Sanders admits that virtually all of his plans for reform have no chance of being approved by a Congress that bears any resemblance to the current crop of federal lawmakers. This is why, he says, voters can’t simply elect him president, but must instead spark a “political revolution.”
Easier said than done. Congress has the largest Republican majority since the 71st Congress of 1929-31.
A successful Sanders presidency would hinge on his ability to remake Washington in his own image. It’s almost inconceivable that such a transformation could take place, even with Democrats controlling both chambers of Congress."
Hear, hear!!!!!
