I guess this would be their 3rd editorial endorsing Cimperman,and in the print version this one mimics Kucinich's bright yellow "Dennis!" campaign signs,it's all on bright yellow with "DENNI$!".
Editorial: Kucinich's far-flung fans fatten his finances

Dennis Kucinich can't plead poverty anymore. Since posting an Internet video warning that "cor porate interests are con verging on Cleveland to knock me out of Congress," Ku cinich has raised $700,000 to defend his hold on the underrepresented people of the 10th District.
Not surprisingly, most of his biggest donors live in other people's districts. Other people's states, in fact. Maybe viewed from Newton, Mass., or Hanapepe, Hawaii, Kucinich looks pretty good. Maybe when you see Cleveland only during playoff games, it seems just fine.
But people like spiritualist Marianne Williamson of Nipomo, Calif., really ought to try living here. Then maybe they might understand why a lot of the people who are actively investing in Northeast Ohio's future have also given money to challenger Joe Cimperman. They're not out to silence Kucinich. They just want someone in Washington willing to help push a very big rock up a very steep hill.
"a lot of the people who are actively investing in Northeast Ohio's future have also given money to challenger Joe Cimperman"? I guess paying off politicians to move mass quantities of public money into your own bank accounts = "actively investing in Northeast Ohio's future"
they showed Cimperman on channel 3 news yesterday claiming his contributors that are being complained about by Kucinich supporters are "the arts community" and "small business"
i don't even think Cimperman supports small business by going to a barber,looks like he cuts his hair with a Flowbee
the local weekly Sun newspapers endorsed Kucinich on Thursday,even though they're owned by same company as the Plain Dealer-

In an extraordinarily crowded Democratic field, four challengers are hoping to prevent 12-year incumbent Dennis J. Kucinich from advancing to the Nov. 4 contest. Despite some misgivings, we're sticking with Kucinich in the Democratic primary...
Say what you will, Kucinich, a longtime maverick politician, always stands up for what he believes, even when the causes are unpopular. Consider the controversy surrounding his decision not to sell Cleveland's electric company when he was the city's mayor 30 years ago. Now called Cleveland Public Power, the facility is alive and well, serving thousands of residents and businesses.
Some of his ideas are unconventional, such as his proposal for a cabinet-level Department of Peace. Right from the start, he was an outspoken opponent of the war in Iraq, which claimed the life of Edward "Augie" Schroeder, the son one of his opponents, Rosemary A. Palmer.
Despite criticism over his run for the presidency, Kucinich spotlighted many important issues in the district, especially those of the working class. Meanwhile, he continues to set the standard for constituent service...
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sun_NewspapersSun Newspapers is a chain of 25 weekly newspapers serving 82 different communities in the Greater Cleveland and Akron, Ohio areas. While some cover portions of the city of Cleveland, most of its papers are focused on suburbs and exurbs in Cuyahoga, Geauga, Lorain, Medina and Summit counties. Its main offices are in Valley View, with branches in Beachwood, Berea, Medina and North Olmsted.
While some of the papers in the chain date back, under previous ownership, to the early 20th century, the company was founded in its current form in 1969, as part of SunMedia, which also publishes weeklies in the Milwaukee suburbs. In 1998 it was sold to Advance Publications, part of the S.I. Newhouse media empire, which also publishes the Plain Dealer, the region's major daily. It is now the largest chain of paid weekly newspapers in the United States.
