    This morning the Journal endorsed White for CD1, Tinsley for CD2 and Lujan for CD3. The pattern is to only endorse Republicans except when the Democrat is gonna win by a huge margin. The same will hold true for the Senate and Presidential races - expect an endorsement for Udall and McCain. Udall because he is fixing to trash Pearce and McCain because that is who they are.

    The Albuquerque Journal is a Republican paper and always has been one. They only occasionally endorse Dems to make it look like they are even-handed but the truth is otherwise.

    For the life of me I simply can't understand why any Dem subscribes to the Journal. They work hard to get Republicans elected and to keep them in office - for proof of this would easily come from a quick review the coverage they gave/give Heather Wilson and Saint Pete. Their reporter in DC routinely gushed all over himself in praise for the pair. Beyond this headlines and articles were routinely constructed in the paper to unfairly tarnish their opponents.

    Its a filthy rag and we can only hope the Journal disappears and dies - who needs another spokesperson for the Republican Party - they already have Fox News.
