I'd be more impressed if the Anchorage Daily News didn't consistently endorse the Democratic candidate (at least since 1992).

I'm very impressed. It takes a lot for a hometown paper to go against a hometwon politician in a national race.

So I take it you were blown away by the Chicago Tribune's endorsement of Obama, the first time in the paper's 100+ year history that they endorsed a Democrat?

GAT_00: Go on. What would you be impressed by?

The fact that 32 papers who still thought Bush was a good idea even in 2004 are already supporting Obama now. And yes, that includes the Tribune endorsement (as well as the LA Times, who declined to endorse before).

 
cousin-merle 2008-10-26 02:54:06 AM  
Oh, of course the Chicago Tribune would endorse Obama. It's his hometown paper.

Oh, of course the Anchorage Daily News would endorse Obama. They always endorse Democrats.

Id fall off my chair if I heard a registered Republican say "The reason this happened is because McCain and Palin suck!".

Wait, I am a registered Republican!

The reason this happened is because McCain and Palin suck!

/Please Obama, put the old man and the tramp out of their misery.

I like the "If you died today" ad right underneath the obligatory "one 72-year old heartbeat from the presidency" paragraph. Now that's placement!

I just want to point out that the first thing that popped into my head when I read that headline was:

"has she been told?"
YES
"OH SNAP!"

They cite a proposal he made in the Senate for stringent reporting requirements concerning nuclear plant leaks, which he then softened after Republican colleagues and energy executives complained. The bill died in committee. Or the time he joined a bipartisan coalition on immigration reform but backed away when labor groups protested. That legislation collapsed, too.

"He folded like a cheap suit,"


"steady hand" indeed.

It's a shame there isn't a better opponent running against McCain.

Of course nearly every newspaper endorses Obama; they are all elitist rags. of course dozens of high-profile Republicans endorse Obama; they are all RINOs that were never on our side to begin with. Of course the youth are supporting, volunteering and voting for Obama in droves; they are all college elitists.

And on, and on, and on...

FTFA: "Sen. McCain describes himself as a maverick, by which he seems to mean that he spent 25 years trying unsuccessfully to persuade his own party to follow his bipartisan, centrist lead. Sadly, maverick John McCain didn't show up for the campaign. Instead we have candidate McCain, who embraces the extreme Republican orthodoxy he once resisted and cynically asks Americans to buy for another four years."

Well said.

Aren't Alaskans kind of pissed with Palin anyway because she has allowed the McCain campaign to basically run the day-to-day affairs of Alaska?

 
Headso 2008-10-26 07:57:29 AM  
McCain should drop the bimbo, he's already farked it's time for one last mavericky maneuver...

 
Hobodeluxe [TotalFark] 2008-10-26 08:06:15 AM  
you know why she had an 80% approval rating?
every Alaskan gets over 3,600 bucks per person in socialist welfare from the oil windfall taxes she levied. that's better than the federal govt welfare. and you get it regardless of income.
and guess who pays that bill? Not the oil companies. they just pass it on to the rest of us.

 
scathing1 2008-10-26 08:11:13 AM  
Redistributing oil wealth to Alaskans at the expense of the rest of the country. That's Mavericky Socialisty.

Alaskans get the dividend because they - as individuals and a state populace - own the resource and sell it to others. Should each Alaskan not their share of profits? Don't you live in a state where you own the resources? You should.
