No surprise here, but I will say TBT is one of the best papers tht I have read. Transplanted to Dunedin, Florida in 2009 for work, and the TBT is one saving grace in this GOP corrupt state. They consistently call out the GOP for their thug acts, and in many cases have thrawted them in their attempts to cheat. Heck, old Connie Mack will not even speak to the paper because they have alled him out for being a spoiled brat that has never had a real job in his life. mack was complaining that bill Nelson would not give him a second debate, the Tampa Bay Times offered Mack a chance at another debate with Nelson and the TBT would be the moderator in a town hall setting, but Mack never responded. It's going to be tough to win here in Florida for Obama, because under Gov. Scott the GOP has been allowed to game the syatem and anyone who has stood up to them has been trashed, but I think the GOTV will be strong here.

The way they've been reporting about the campaigns, I truly had some doubts. But I figured they'd come through with the endorsement in the end.
