Isn't it about time for the Print Endorsements?
I've seen a few discussed here, but overall not many newspaper endorsements have been announced. In this time of deep division, do you think some papers ma abstain in order to preserve as much revenue as possible?

(I've emailed my vow to cancel my subscription for a year if my paper goes to *)

Are there any known big shifts from 2000 yet?

2. I don't expect a shift here
San Diego Union Tribune would recomend BushCo if they found George with a bloody knife in hand standing over the bodies of his twin girls with a pentacle carved in thier foreheads...

4. The Trib makes sure all the papers it owns endorse pukes too.
The Hartford CT paper endorsed Bush in 2000, or it was told to endorse Bush by the Trib, and they did. Hartford is one of the poorer cities in the country, 4 years later it has gotten worse. Thanks Trib, you really know how to screw a poor city. Pukes.

6. The Dallas Morning News is about to endorse *
But this paper's editorial board is such a joke. They said last week that * won the debate by not losing.
