Virginia Politics-Endorsements

The big story for some seems to be the endorsements of newspapers. I really have never paid much attention to them before now. So let me get this in perspective. The opinion of an editor or panel says I should vote for this candidate. Yep, that is about it. I feel confident in that for sure. Trust what the old MSM thinks I should do. I have never been at the polls thinking “I wonder who the Times endorsed.” I did enjoy today’s letters to the editor page in the BHC. By my count Kilgore supporters outnumbered the others by far. The BHC may have endorsed Kaine, but the response of the readership applauded Kilgore. To think a newspaper endorsement can change minds is absurd.

I believe I am not alone when I say--I could care less who the papers endorse. Why would anyone care? Amazing!
