Post from Obama HQ Blogger:
Over 100 newspaper endorsements and counting - UPDATED

Barack Obama continues to win praise and endorsements from newspaper editorial boards across the country. To date, Barack has received the official endorsement of over 100 newspapers.

Below are a few excerpts from recent endorsements, followed by a list of endorsements with links to the full articles.

Milwaukee Journal Sentinel: "So why Obama? It is precisely the excitement that we see in the candidate and his supporters in their demands for change. This promises to alter the political landscape and dynamics for the better, energizing youth for service and involvement as we haven't seen in a very long time … In Obama, there is a potential for meaningful change that does not exist with any other candidate."

Dallas Morning News: "Mr. Obama is our choice because of his consistently solid judgment, poise under pressure and ability to campaign effectively without resorting to the divisive politics of the past."

Houston Chronicle: "Obama vows to reach out to independents and Republicans with a message of inclusion and cooperation. He offers a historic opportunity to elevate national political dialogue to a higher ground."

Cleveland Plain Dealer: "Democrats have to ask themselves which candidate is more likely, first, to win the White House, and, then, to persuade a closely divided country to embrace his or her vision of change. Put even more pointedly: Who is more likely to change the world of a child born in 2008? The answer, we think, is Barack Obama."
