Hmm...Des Moines Register endorses Braley

In June, for the Republican Primary, they endorsed Joni Ernst. And now, after all the ads and rhetoric, and her not meeting with them, they come out for Bruce Braley.

It would appear that something has caused them to have a change of heart, or maybe they just now saw the light.
