13. Under "Endorsement Coice" in blue letters look for the small red letters "Vote" (nt)
I already voted so I lost the direct link.

7. Done. But I'll bet you the Chicago Tribune offers no endorsement this election.
Edited on Tue Oct-07-08 06:43 PM by terrya
I imagine they're really wanting to endorse McCain...based on their idea of who will be best on national security. But then there's Sarah Palin. But they can't stop over 100 years of endorsing Republicans. So...no endorsement.

15. I read the trib
If they do not endorse Obama, I'm done with the trib forever more with one exception.

I will buy a Sunday paper each week for the rest of my life to contact ALL of their advertisers to tell them I will not patronize their businesses because they advertise in the Trib.

18. The new design drives me nuts. That, and no Obama endorsement
would end it for me, too. The Chicago Tribune makes me miss The Des Moines Register. A LOT!!

25. yeah but this is about the trib's endorsement.
I think they will endorse Obama because having the president from our city can help us with services. They did endorse Obama over alan keyes.

26. Rec'd to go viral..how fucking greedy do you
have to be to endorse mccain over Obama in Illinois?

If they endorse mccain.. the intelligent people of Chicago should make them accountable. It's not like they have a reason other than destroying out country with fucking palin in the wings.
