1. Oh well, it's a small paper but interesting because
Someone noted there's been a reverse effect of newspaper endorsements. When a candidate has received the endorsement of a major newspaper in a primary, they have tended to lose.

"CBS News political reporter Fernando Suarez thinks that may be the case. He's making the interesting argument that, with only two big exceptions, both Clinton and Obama tend to lose the state primaries where they win the endorsement of the most influential local newspapers."
