The Pioneer Press doesn't seem to have endorsed a Pres. candidate
yet.

Did they endorse Bush by this time in 2000?

1. I think so
I think they are either going to endorse Bush again or abstain. If they were going to endorse Kerry they would have done it by now.

3. Not necessarily
They laid out their endorsement schedule a month ago, and it was set up to finish with the Big One. They're just following their schedule; seems reasonable to save the big one for last.

2. I read they are waiting till Oct. 31
Kinda wimpy if you ask me. They'll probably go for Bush.

5. Well, based on their coverage...
I would say up until last week, they were promoting the Bush agenda. Was glad to see a slight change in the tone recently.

But why wait until Oct. 31? Sounds like they are undecided.

I really don't want to bet against Kerry getting an endorsement and I hope they will come around!
