Daily Endorsement Tally: On 'Super Sunday,' Kerry Makes Huge Gains


You are erroneously putting a lot of stock in those endorsements. I
think
that, lately, most people look at the news media with a skeptical
eye...and
an endorsement from a newspaper can have just the opposite effect from
what
the paper had hoped.

Oh, I don't believe newspaper endorsements carry the impact they used
to, but they still are a factor, albeit a minor one. What is interesting
is the growing number of significant papers that endorsed Bush last time
and are now either endorsing Kerry or NOT endorsing anyone.

The major papers in your state are endorsing Kerry...:

FLORIDA
St. Petersburg Times (G): 358,502
The Miami Herald (G): 325,032
South Florida Sun-Sentinel (Ft. Lauderdale) (G): 268,927
The Palm Beach Post (G): 181,727
Daytona Beach News-Journal (G): 112,945
Florida Today (Melbourne) (G): 90,877
Bradenton Herald (B): 52,163
Orlando Sentinel (B):
Sarasota Herald-Tribune (G)

And Bush:

FLORIDA
The Ledger (Lakeland)

I wonder the impact based on the fact that so few people get their news from
a subscription to a newspaper anymore. I haven't had a paper delivered to
me since my second year of dental school 8 years ago.
