Columbus Dispatch Endorses John McCain
Ohio, like Whitman wrote, contains multitudes. At least politically. There's the liberal (Cleveland), the conservative (Cincinnati) and the in-between though trending liberal (Columbus).
So it was interesting to see that the Columbus Dispatch endorsed McCain. It would seem to cost them something since the blueness of Michigan is cascading down Ohio in a north-to-south fashion and it doesn't take a seer to see Franklin county as next to go liberal. McCain's pro-life record played no role in the endorsement, as the Dispatch is no friend to social conservatives, but the paper shows guts in bucking the newspaper fraternity and the endorsement trend. But then Ohio has seen, up close and personal, how horrible one-party government is...
