The Chicago Tribune, a newspaper that has not endorsed a Democrat for president since it was founded in 1847, today endorsed Barak Obama. This venerable newspaper pointed out their previous endorsement of an Illinois son, Abraham Lincoln.
Conservative talk radio host Michael Smerconish, who is apparently very big in the Philadelphia area, said: "For the first time since registering as a Republican 28 years ago, I'm voting for a Democrat for president."
And New York Times conservative columnist, David Brooks, did not endorse him but praised his qualities and said "It is easy to sketch out a scenario in which he could be a great president" -- echoing what the Washington Post said about him yesterday.
Yes, We Can
