Here you go 'Last-Word-Herb'. The Chicago Tribune has just endorsed obama
after over 150 years of consecutively and continuously endorsing
republicans. Find a newspaper that has endorsed a democratic nominee for
president for 150 years in a row and is now endorsing McCain. Try not to
keep me waiting as long as katie couric has been waiting for sister sarah to
get back to her on all those examples of mccains regulatory history.
