I would be interested in knowing who the Montana newspapers are endorsing. The SLC Trib just came out for Obama and I was wondering what the papers are doing up there. Anyone?

The Chicago Tribune endorsed Obama today. It was the first time they have EVER endorsed a Democrat.

I don't know if there's an endorsement yet but the Billings Gazette is definitely pro-Obama.

The Helena Independent Record has been endorsing candidates in the state-wide races the past several days....thus far, it has been the straight Democratic ticket. They haven't posted a presidential pick, but I am fairly certain it will be for Obama.

I had thought that most of Montana's major newspapers where owned by Lee Enterprises and they have always endorsed the Democrat candidate.

News Flash. Newspapers endorsing Obama, overwhelmingly.

In other news... In a new scientific study, Water often found to be moist.

The Denver Post Editor wrote a long editorial on Saturday in the paper as to why the Post wasn't going to endorse anyone. He felt that it was the paper's duty to give information and let the readers decide rather than possibly "lead" someone to a candidate.

Then at 3 pm Saturday afternoon, the Denver Post website announced that they were backing Obama.

So much for letting a reader decide....
