You can move the Wisconsin State journal Journal out of TBD status, they've endorsed Romney:

Not enough hope and too little change.

I wanted to wait for a new post to show up at democrat underground before posting this in the DUmpster, but the DUmmies don't seem too interested in this new development.

We will make America strong again. We will make America proud again. We will make America safe again. And we will make America great again.

At this moment the tally is 40 Obama, 33 Romney, and 16 no endorsement/undecided/split.

to compare, in 2008 it was 59 Obama , 24 McCain, and 6 no endorsement/undecided/split.

All I see in this topic is another sign of increased Romney momentum - thanks for the topic, primitive.

A little puzzled about the numbers.

Quote
ROMNEY TOTAL: 29
That's it. A solid 29.  (Yes, I know, the number got larger.)

That number was followed by....
Quote
OBAMA TOTAL: 36 To be determined:20 Doesn't endorse: 8
Followed by long list.
Maybe I'm not the sharpest in the drawer, but, it seems the correct number should be 8.

Odd how that TBD's and no indorse, are listed as Obumba's.

DUmmies lie......

Then-Chief Justice John Marshall observed, “Between a balanced republic and a democracy, the difference is like that between order and chaos.”

John Adams warned in a letter, “Remember democracy never lasts long. It soon wastes, exhausts, and murders itself. There never was a democracy yet, that did not commit suicide.”

Please notice the real list is considerably shorter.

By the way, I'm not sure why, but the San Antonio newspaper endorsed McCain four years ago, but this year endorsed Barack Milhous.  I wonder what's up with that.

The SA mayor probably told them he would shut them down with frivilous taxes and regulations if they didnt endorse Obama

to compare, in 2008 it was 59 Obama , 24 McCain, and 6 no endorsement/undecided/split.

In other words:

Obama lost 33% of his endorsements while the GOP has increased its endorsements by a similar %, albeit a smaller overall number.

The 166% increase in undecideds I think is telling. I think those may not be pro-Romney but they're definitely anti-Obama.

If the ostensibly left-leaning media world has turned against Obama we can only dream about what it is going to be like the day after tomorrow among average people.
