NEW YORK President Bush is running out of time if he wants to catch Sen. John Kerry -- in newspaper endorsements, at least. Kerry picked up seven new papers on our list today with Bush gaining just three, bringing the tally to 149 to 126 with just six days until Election Day. However, things could change when many procrastinating papers make their picks on Sunday.
But there's no way the president will catch the senator in circulation total of supporting papers, which now stands at 17.7 to 11.6 million, in Kerry's favor.
Kerry also picked up two new papers that had backed Bush in 2000: the Owensboro (Ky.) Messenger-Inquirer and the Herald-Standard of Uniontown, Pa. This gives the challenger 38 ex-Bush papers, while the president has gained only six from the Gore column in 2000. (snip)
