- schnikies79, on 04/17/2008, -7/+26Sigh. Obama supporter here.
More news sources who shouldn't endorse ANYONE for ANY REASON. Stick to the news, let me make the decision.
Yes, I know, it's the editors. Well the editors should speak for themselves and not through the NEWSpaper. - TheWorm, on 04/17/2008, -2/+10Better for it to reach people less likely to vote for him, than preaching to the choir.
- inactive, on 04/17/2008, -3/+11You know I think a good gauge of a persons education, and emotional level, is whether or not they constantly refer to Barack Obama as "Barack Hussein Obama"
- newmanator77, on 04/17/2008, -5/+13I'm a McCain supporter but I agree that Obama does have an amazing talent for bringing people together and getting them to believe in him. Personally I prefer McCain's policies, but I will be happy to see either of them win.
- PeteLP, on 04/17/2008, -0/+8I'm an Obama supporter and I dugg you up. We completely disagree on policy, but I'm very happy to hear the good will you've expressed. How often do we get kind thoughts from those who disagree with us. Cheers
- inactive, on 04/17/2008, -1/+8Conservative who doesn't understand the difference between socialism and communsim
- inactive, on 04/17/2008, -0/+7OMG I just went to your comment history:

***** Net Neutrality.

haha affirmative action
libatard neocon
I am gonna make and market a doll of Sean Hannity with a string coming out of his ass that every time you pull it, it will produce one of these brilliant Christian conservative comments.
The perfect gift to put in your children's stockings. - inactive, on 04/17/2008, -1/+7He still won the most Texas delegates.
- CygnusX1, on 04/17/2008, -2/+8Here Here! I'm shocked to see this getting so many diggs by the same people who digg other articles about injustice and "faux news". Journalism is meant to report on the facts. I don't' care (or I guess I'm not supposed to care) about who they support. We should be afraid of media supporting anyone or anything.
- inactive, on 04/17/2008, -1/+7For Russia or the for the Soviet Union?
Could you clarify your point after you get done ***** your sister? - schnikies79, on 04/17/2008, -0/+5Digg has probably one of the worst children (mentally) to adult ratios on the internet.
Don't assume there is even a small majority of "adults" here. - kungfuboi, on 04/17/2008, -1/+6he won texas
- Nougat, on 04/17/2008, -0/+4After *I* get done ***** his sister, too.
- inactive, on 04/17/2008, -1/+5Ha ha. Your medium is dying!
- inactive, on 04/17/2008, -1/+4Fairness? Man you need to find a real issue to concern yourself with.
- inactive, on 04/17/2008, -2/+5Here's an idea, don't click on the link. Or better yet, use your filter. Then you can exclusively read about Wii games and iPhones and leave the grown ups alone.
- ahhell, on 04/17/2008, -2/+5I thought newspapers are supposed to be unbiased.
- x2wenty4x, on 04/17/2008, -0/+3Their online editions are read by the younger people so most end up seeing it. However I don't think newspaper endorsements really sway voters anyway.
- schnikies79, on 04/17/2008, -2/+5I doubt he well.
Crystal ball Obama supporter here. - shutter54, on 04/17/2008, -1/+4Isnt it the newspaper's job to REPORT the news, not MAKE it? Who cares who they endorse.
- qwerter, on 04/17/2008, -0/+3Maybe, if you're counting Dittoheads.
- FashionLad, on 04/17/2008, -1/+3Those news papers are pulling a FAUX News move. It's not their job to support one candidat over the other; it's their job to report the news and let me make the call. I can make my own decisions when I have the information to do so.
- mcnasby, on 04/17/2008, -1/+3Is it just me - or does anyone else find media outlet endorsing candidates strange? Isn't journalism *supposed to* be free of bias?
- inactive, on 04/17/2008, -2/+4Or use the phrase "black nationalism" or "radical Islam."
- mcnasby, on 04/17/2008, -1/+3Did it ever occur to you that a large group of people might have the same genuine liking for someone?
- AvangionQ, on 04/17/2008, -0/+2"In this morning's editions, three Pennsylvania newspapers formally endorsed Barack Obama -- the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, the Bucks County Courier-Times and the Patriot News. All three editorial boards cited Barack's unique ability to bring people back into the political process and move the country forward." ... now to wait and see if this helps Barack Obama take Pennsylvania -- perhaps bring the race for Democratic candidate to its inevitable conclusion ...
- sexypeon, on 04/17/2008, -0/+2Really? I think Obama wants what's best for America at heart.
- mcnasby, on 04/17/2008, -0/+2Last weekend the Bucks County Courier Times ran a front page story about Obama being worried about winning the PA Primary. That story was an incredibly smart move on his campaign's part. More stuff stories like that, more casual supporters might be apt to go to the polls on April 22.
- 3amboo, on 04/17/2008, -0/+2i thought it was too
- tillerman00, on 04/17/2008, -0/+2"Senator Obama, who loves America more, you or Reverend Wright?"
Blow me, Stephanopolus. - inactive, on 04/17/2008, -0/+2Get over yourself.
You know what I hate more than the Obama spam? Demagogic right wing nutcases with their ***** phrases like "DiggObamaSpamBots" "Obamassiah" etc etc.
You guys aren't original when you point out that he's popular at the moment. You just come off as an *****. - qwerter, on 04/17/2008, -1/+3Normally, I'd agree, but after all the fuss with Limbaugh, and Republicans voting for Hillary to throw the vote, I question that clout. In fact, I think the caucus numbers may be more reliable...Republicans could easily put in a vote at the primary, but how many could stomach a lengthy caucus?
- cerealman, on 04/17/2008, -0/+1Uh, no. When the article posted by the newspaper says "So-and-so newspaper supports Obama," well, what do you think that means?
- reuscel, on 04/17/2008, -0/+1And in that sense, it is perhaps a very accurate barometer of the American electorate. Remember, these are the people who voted for Bush because they were afraid of boys kissing.
- obelisky, on 04/17/2008, -1/+2if the title of this had been 'three papers for ron paul' most of the comments saying 'who cares what papers think, blah blah' would be 'FINALLY THE SHEEPLE GET IT'
- Carramrod72, on 04/17/2008, -0/+1Apparently not....Whats stranger is the one digg your comment has.
- itsfullofstars, on 04/17/2008, -0/+1You are such a baby. Stop reading the Obama articles then you jackass.
- Tex, on 07/28/2008, -4/+5I'm a supporter, but the Obama campaign really needs to keep expectations down for Penn. Losing the expectations game is what spun marginal losses in (Clinton-leaning) states like New Hampshire, California, and Massachusetts into "huge" Clinton wins (despite Obama's impressive gains in those states).
- vikingkory, on 04/17/2008, -0/+1I'm from bucks county and I also read it. I'm 20 and voting for Obama.
- aliengoods, on 04/17/2008, -10/+11I don't know how much this will help him. The people who still read newspapers are older, and are pretty firmly in the Hillary camp. Having said that it's still good news.
- ZebZ, on 04/17/2008, -0/+1You mean the 18 that actually came through for her?
- dued007, on 04/17/2008, -0/+1I did not see the link
but what has race got to do with it?
Race and financial concern for the economy don't go hand in hand - schnikies79, on 04/17/2008, -1/+2Not everyone lives in a major metro area. My hometown newspaper is running record readership and they have a web (limited) presence.
When you live in a large county that only has 32k people, you have very very limited news sources. - NumNutz, on 04/17/2008, -1/+2hillary got all the pennsylvania mayors endorsements, so its nice to see obama get a newspaper endorsement to even it out.
- bond1963, on 04/17/2008, -0/+1Point well taken.... Just wanting to read a bit less Obama AND Clinton stuff on digg. It's so prevalent that it really makes you wonder..... and it wouldn't be the first time manipulation has been tried here like you said. I have been browsing digg for a long time and this finally brought me out of my shell and started commenting.
- inactive, on 04/17/2008, -1/+2So Cre-8-ive !!!
- gslam20, on 04/17/2008, -0/+1The Philadelphia Daily News also just endorsed Obama today...
- inactive, on 04/17/2008, -4/+5Another Crystal Ball Republican
- obelisky, on 04/17/2008, -0/+1ah, was ok when it was ron paul spam... before, ya know, he crashed and burned
