20. Good endorsement but do they normally endorse Democrats?

Just wondering what their history is. I'm not familiar with it.

What will be most impressive is if Obama can get endorsements from papers that don't normally endorse Democrats, or only seldom do.

That will give us clues as to who is winning the middle ground.
