Endorsement Update

After reviewing the endorsements coming in after our earlier post, Kerry has increased his lead. Editor & Publisher states Kerry leads Bush 122-96 in endorsements and leads by about 14.9 million to 8.9 million in the circulation of backing papers.

There are at least 33 papers which endorsed Bush in 2000 which now support Kerry, while only two papers have gone from Gore in 2000 to Bush in 2004. There have also been additional Republican papers to decide to endorse nobody this year in light of Bush's dismal record in office.
