1. I think it is an important endorsement. |

The Morning Call is a widely circulated paper in Allentown, Bethlehem, Easton, and surrounding small towns.

This little rust-belt city, the Queen City, down on her heels, trying to keep it up... perfect HIllary turf, as I've said before...
BUT I've seen the signs.. literally, many many Obama signs in front of row homes, and front lawn of the blue collar neighborhoods....
I've talk to people.. and something changing, and something's coming...
Of all things... this little newspaper that outsources everything.. and they endorse... Barack? Will wonders ever cease?

Well we're living here in Allentown And they're closing all the factories down Out in Bethlehem they're killing time Filling out forms Standing in line Well our fathers fought the Second World War Spent their weekends on the Jersey Shore Met our mothers in the USO Asked them to dance Danced with them slow And we're living here in Allentown But the restlessness was handed down And it's getting very hard to stay Well we're waiting here in Allentown For the Pennsylvania we never found For the promises our teachers gave If we worked hard If we behaved So the graduations hang on the wall But they never really helped us at all No they never taught us what was real Iron and coke And chromium steel And we're waiting here in Allentown But they've taken all the coal from the ground And the union people crawled away Every child has a pretty good shot To get at least as far as their old man got But something happened on the way to that place They threw an American flag in our place Well I'm living here in Allentown And it's hard to keep a good man down But I won't be getting very hard to stay And we're living here in Allentown
