It should be noted that Rick Perry won the election by a significant margin, despite the near unanimous lack of major Texas newspaper endorsements.

What does all of that prove? It proves that newspaper endorsements have lost their oomph!

To add insult to Whirly's injury, according to "the very respectable Real Clear Politics" (Whirly's words, not mine) Obama not only leads Romney in Iowa, but the President currently leads Romney in the Electoral College by a 281-257 margin.

Maybe journalists actually have some tiny measure of patriotism and love of country that overides their socialist views. Just kidding! We know that can't be it.
Damn that is the kiss of death.

Iowa is one of the few States in which newspaper enditorial endorsdments still carry weight with their readers. But you wouldn't know that DumbBigTex.

Please provide a link from a credible source that shows Iowa to be "one of the few States in which newspaper editorial endorsements still carry weight with their readers." As for me, I provided credible links to justify my position in post #2 of this thread. Thus far, Whirly has yet to provide anything credible. Instead he has only provided empty rhetoric.

Failure to provide a credible link will leave me with no alternative but to ASSume that Whirly is full of horse caca! Once again!
