Chillicothe (OH) Gazette Endorses Obama (was for McCain in 2008)
Four years ago, the Gazette endorsed Sen. John McCain in his bid for the presidency over Sen. Barack Obama. Our concerns at the time were centered on Obama’s relative inexperience and questions surrounding his ability to lead in a time of crisis.
We argued in that editorial that McCain’s wealth of experience would make him better equipped to handle the threat of terrorism, the painful decline in the economy and other issues. Obama won the election and a clear indication from voters that he was the man to lead.
Now, four years later, President Obama has proved his ability to lead in tough times. He’s made decisions unpopular with Democrats, while moving forward on items with Republicans. He’s pushed forward on an agenda that he was handed in a mandate from voters in 2008, and he’s also helped — albeit not to the extent many hoped — lead us through one of the toughest economic times in recent memory.
We recommend a second term for Obama on Tuesday because he has demonstrated leadership, strength and future vision for the country and Ohio.
