Phila Inquirer Eendorses Obama
Sorry if this is a dupe, I didn't see it posted elsewhere.

http://www.philly.com/inquirer/opinion/20081019_Editorial__For_President.html

....."Both major candidates are trying to avoid association with Bush's failed policies. But only one does so successfully. On every issue important to America, Barack Obama offers a plan that would pull this nation from the precipice built by bad Bush decisions. The Inquirer endorses BARACK OBAMA for president."

I was wrong, I thought they would endorse McCain this year. Yay!

Good for the Editorial board!

4. Um...there was also a dissenting opinion
and it is the first time for the Inky since 1972.

It is not-so-slowly becoming a RW Rag.
