Obama Out of Touch With Pennsylvanians? Most Top Papers There Disagree

Published: April 19, 2008 10:55 AM ET

NEW YORK While Beltway pundits and others in the national press have alleged that Sen. Barack Obama is clearly out of touch with most Pennsylvanians, leading newspapers in the state seem to disagree.

In recent days he has picked up the endorsements of the vast majority of these papers in Pennsylvania.

Papers endorsing Obama include: The Philadelphia Inquirer, The Philadelphia Daily News, Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, Allentown Morning Call, The Patriot News of Harrisburg, the Scranton Times-Tribune and Bucks County Courier.

Hillary Clinton's endorsements have been far fewer, such as the Daily Pennsylvanian -- the University of Pennsylvania paper -- though more may appear on Sunday. The daily in Wilkes-Barre said it is not endorsing at all.

7. It's BO-mentum!

The tide is clearly turning in favor of Barack in PA and elsewhere. It is so sad to read the increasing desperation of the anti-Obama threads here on DU. These are (presumably) Democrats who are posting these screeds and I hate the feeling of being so disgusted by a fellow Dem. Let's all go back to being disgusted by the R's, OK?
