By inference does that mean the the "nonsense" of any newspaper is a reflection of the editorial board. Therefore, the bile which is spewed regularly from the NY Times is nonsense, and a reflection of its editors? Is it only the other mother's baby that is ugly, not as smart, unathletic?

That nonsense was not a reflection of the editors of the Tribune.

Don't get your hopes up that Obama is going away. They rode too far with him...to switch 'horses in the middle of the stream.'

That's not done! Plus, he still has many of his base 'brainwashed' and supportive. Nothing short of 'major scandal' can stop him from being the Dem candidate.

Typical right wing extremely off information. Why don't you look at the posts above. The tribune is a right leaning newspaper with the OP a segment done by a republican columnist for the paper
What is unclear to you about that?

No, what you get from the NYT is what you get from all newspapers, journalist hacks who write columns that end up on the editorial page.

This was not written by the Chicago Tribune editorial board, therefore, it does not necessarily reflect the opinion of the Tribune.

Hope that helps you out

Default Trib has always been a Conservative paper; irrelevant

So who cares what they think? The rule is that if the Republicans think something should happen, then IT SHOULD NOT HAPPEN.

After all, what Republicans want is wrong for the country, and Pubs are always wrong. The Trib is no exception. Carville is irrelevant and has been for quite some time. Get real.

BTW, you mention the editorial was an opinion by a right wing columnist remember that next time you get excited about something Paul Krugman has to say....At least the Tribune, maybe slightly right leaning (no newspaper today is totally right wing) is nearly as slanted as the NY Times. It is not just left leaning, it is off the edge of left. If NY was on the west coast I would say it fell into the ocean.

He is panicing, he went from trying to increase our debt by the billions to now proposing a "deficit cutting plan" .

This is exactly why I vote for Ron Paul. HE DOESN'T CHANGE POSITIONS OR FLIP FLOP.

Obama is just doing and saying what he thinks will help him get re-elected, not what he believes is right or what he thinks will fix the economy. He's appealing to garbage media polls and approval ratings. That's all he cares about, not you and I.

Yeah! We should only listen to LIBERAL media that is in favor of Obama and make him seem like he can do no wrong! How dare you read something not in favor of him!

The real reason conservatives want the Dems to replace Obama, is it's pathetically obvious that they can't find anybody of their own to defeat him!
