Have any big newspapers endorsed McCain?
I know these don't mean too much as far as persuading voters, but I'm just curious.

2. He doesn't need big newspapers.

He'd rather have endorsements from small newspapers in small towns, where the real, authentic "pro-America" people are.

7. I wanna see who the Dallas Morning News is gonna pick

Cuz despite the fact that chimpass ran TX into the ground they still always endorsed him for gov, ditto when he ran for prez both times (again, forget the fact that he has destroyed everything he touched).
They are SLOWLY releasing their endorsements, a few each day, working their way up to the current prez race. Early TX voting starts Monday so I imagine they will print their endorsement on Sunday.
FWIW, it's a right wing rag owned by Belo Corp...which is kinda bizarre since Dallas is getting BLUER with every election (2004, 2006) and Obama will most likely take Dallas County in a big way.

Though they SEEM to be catching on cuz I see alot of Dem endorsements (15 all together) for local courts, TX House, State Board of Ed. Yet they endorsed John Cornyn and Sam Johnson :puke:
