But do the editors of those newspapers wear flag pins?

Didn't she get the Pittsburgh Tribune Review as well?

Those endorsements and two quarters will get you a cup of coffee.

Did Hillary win the endorsement of the Puppet Master of "The Vast Right Wing Conspiracy" or did she just sell her soul for nothing?

for reference, Obama got all the major papers in Texas, too...

for what it's worth? LOL!!!!

She really needs to get out; she started out strong and she's been going downhill for quite some time now. Since she can't win, if I were her, I'd try to get out at least slightly ahead of the game.

Wait, didn't she get the endorsement of Richard Mellon Scaife's rag?

Newspapers, a form of the media, are endorsing Obama!?!?!?!

Who would have thunk it? I always thought the media wasn't in love with Obama...or, wait...

P.S. The student newspaper cited is UPenn, and coming from an elite college student, that means more than the other papers combined.

Breaking News:

Gallup daily tracking poll shows that support for
Hillary Rambo Clinton, The Heroine of Tuzla, remains rock solid among her strongest core base

No change from the last time.

Senator Obama 0%

Senator Clinton 100%

Among Short Bus Trolls,
Most likely not to be able to differentiate between their arses and their mouths.

Certainly, this is "worth" enough not to bury it on a late Friday afternoon.

And, for SCMadden, who points out that "Obama got all the major papers in Texas, too": Why, yes he did. He also got a net gain of 3 to 5 delegates from Texas.

Your point is...?

People who read like Barack.

Hillary is just dumb!

Hillary Clinton Attacks MoveOn

The Huffington Post headline reads "Hillary Slams Democratic Activists." I'm being told that Hillary Clinton was caught on tape disparaging Barack Obama because he's being supported by MoveOn, and that they opposed military action in Afghanistan.

I've tried to stay out of the pie fights of late, but as a long-term defender of MoveOn and other progressive organizations -- this is completely unacceptable.

I defended Hillary Clinton when she refused to bow to right wing pressure and condemn MoveOn over the "General Betrayus" ad (and was sad when she finally capitulated). MoveOn are valuable progressive partners, who have been with us on Donna Edwards, net neutrality, trying to bring an end to the war, FISA and other issues we've been fighting for.

They've accepted the challenge of organizing the left in the virtual arena and done an amazing job that the right struggles to replicate. They now have 3 million members, of which I'm one. And their skill at online organization and movement building has developed a model that both of the Democratic candidates have been able to replicate and learn from, acting as a democratizing influence and making candidates more responsive to the public at large and less to high dollar donors.

MoveOn didn't oppose military action in Afghanistan but I did. Not because I thought it was the wrong thing to do but because I was quite certain George Bush would bungle it and we'd just wind up spending billions on a bunch of junk that would make his buddies rich and a lot of poor people in the poorest country in the world would die senselessly. And I was right.

Does Hillary Clinton not want my vote either?

And an odd aside: The Daily Pennsylvanian, which endorsed Clinton, is indeed the student newspaper of the University of Pennsylvania. The interesting thing about this is, the student Democrats group for the University of Pennsylvania has actually endorsed Obama!

It is hard for me to believe that Obama can get within 10% in Pennsylvania. I hope he can but I have doubts.

wasn't moveon.org created in support of Cimton's husband, during his term?

Pittsburgh Post-Gazette is Mellon-Scaife's paper, the one Hilary sat down with in the middle of Sniper-gate, owned by one of the backers of the Arkansas Project.

Can we just wrap this thing up already? It's D-O-N-E.

THIS IS EXCELLENT NEWS!! FOR HILLARY!!!
!!!HILLMENTUM™!!!!

So the student newspaper endorsed Clinton!?!?!

But, didn't Bill just say the other day that young people are too stupid to pick a president?

From the referenced McCain fundraiser e-mail:

We need change in America, but not the kind of change that wins kind words from Hamas, surrenders in Iraq and will hold unconditional talks with Iranian President Ahmadinejad.

Notice how they get "uncoditional" and "surrender" in there together? Classy.

For what it's worth? Not much

"And isn't "The Daily Pannsylvanian" a student news paper? I thiought this was "non-student newspapers"?"

Yep.

This is classic MSM shilling for Hillary.

They need to keep the Hillary spirit up by "balancing" his genuine good news with fake good news for her.

Funny, that when it is reversed, they don't do that. (Still don't announce Texas caucus results, for instance)

The Daily Pennsylvanian was just kidding.

Ah thanks for the calmer and more interesting comment than my own.

As for a 51st state, heh heh, even if Quebec wanted to join America, which it doesn't, I'd love to see the Republicans' electoral chances here once 8 million French-speaking, internationalist, unreligious social liberals were added to the voting population.

You know, this is the first argument I've ever heard that would make this Quebecker want to join that barbarian nation to the south. :)

What most people know intuitively about Barack is that Barack touches our Souls, Hearts, and collective conscience. If elected he will be much beloved and be known as the People's President. We can sense that he is one of us and that we are all of us in this together. There is no you or me but we and us.. and together we must move forward and higher to a more positive place and state of mind. He leads without criticism, demonizing or anger, he leads with a clear sense of direction and purpose where we must go if we are to survive as a people both here in the U.S. and abroad. He represents and offers true change or else stay static and die.

Just ask for a "senior coffee" at Burger King. It's only 49 cents here in Northern Michigan.

Well, I recall that both the Harvard Crimson and Yale Daily News (ha!) endorsed Obama. (found the latter useful in one phone call).

Penn's an Ivy, and it's actually an interesting result - cuts against the grain.

Large public universities' papers get attention, too - UT Austin's paper endorsed Clinton, as I recall. The youth vote is engaged this year - why shouldn't we pay some attention to prominent colleges's newspapers's endorsements?

If you go to the front page of The Daily Pennsylvanian from the endorsement, the top story is Obama's overwhelming support in the polls from Penn students: 73% and statewide: 71%.

The editors at the Daily Pennsylvanian wear ascots and boating shoes. They are the elitists of the Ivy League. They go to college on a campus next to one of the most dangerous neighborhoods in Philly. Most of them are not residents of the state. It costs over $50,000 a year to go to Penn. They have names like Muffy and Chaz.

Right you are.

But who cares? It is simply not in the class of a real newspaper, I never heard of it (the paper) before today. And Greg's inclusion here is a bit childish. NYT Caucus included it as well to "balance" bad news for Hillary. (Why they don't extend the favor to Obama on bad days I don't know)
