    From "The Anchorage Daily News":
    "Sen. Barack Obama, the Democratic nominee, brings far more promise to the office. In a time of grave economic crisis, he displays thoughtful analysis, enlists wise counsel and operates with a cool, steady hand. The same cannot be said of Sen. McCain."

    True, very true.

      I liked the "improbable event" in the intro.
      With my outsider's hat in I can say: crazy, loony, nutty, idiotic, insane plus vile, disgusting, sickening, pernicious, Machiavellian, hypocritical just for starters.
      I'll spare the gentle readers of propeller my more extreme feelings about it.
      As for the talk of her potential future Presidential campaign only gurgling and choking noises emanate.
      How about Charlie Manson, OJ Simpson, or a lottery-winner in a loony bin for running mate?

          Wow, their endorsing Obama. Big surprise. A newspaper is supporting the lefties. First, does this actually surprise anyone? Secondly, do you suppose this is why newspapers are no longer relevant as a media source? Subscriptions are falling faster than gas prices.
