Did you miss Utah’s biggest paper, the Salt Lake Tribune, endorsing president Obama? They were put off by too many Mitts.

There’s plenty more in swing states. I guess they’re risking being “out of touch”?

But then so does Romney: like fumbling every single foreign policy setting he has been in.

Their editorial position is only slightly right of Newsweek and their editorial cartoonist is perhaps the most leftist man in the nation. But methinks they don't want to end up like Newsweek. So they choose Romney because of the "economy". Also..they know Obama will lose and don't want to be seen as "out of touch" with their readership. So they bite the bullet. Writing that endorsement piece that appeared in today's paper must have been pure hell for them. Delusion is thinking an Independent candidate will win or thinking that with the way the dismal last four years economy wise an incumbent can remain in office. People always vote wallet - right or left. That's what killed Bush senior and his recession was nothing next to this one. Even Carter's recession didn't look this bad. And if you promise to fix things, or at least make it much better,and then don't...it's "read my lips" all over again. Trust me…that’s big.

Above all, we must realize that no arsenal, or no weapon in the arsenals of the world, is so formidable as the will and moral courage of free men and women. It is a weapon our adversaries in today’s world do not have.

Because he will be "stronger and use American values"? Sorry but that doesn't come anywhere close to cutting it on foreign policy specifics.

"Respect" is not an issue from them. Are they going to stop attacking us because Romney's personal awesomeness will make them stop? Please. That the right cares so much about this but not about the entire Obama anti-terror record is telling. It highlights their desperate faux outrage.
