On Sunday, the Chicago Daily Herald, the second largest daily newspaper in metropolitan Chicago, endorsed Mitt Romney for President in 2012. In 2008, the Daily Herald endorsed hometown Senator Barack Obama for President:
In endorsing Illinois’ favorite son in 2008, we declared Obama “has a chance to be a great president.” We said, “He offers a new kind of politics. A politics that breaks down the old partisan walls. A politics that strives to bring people together. A politics of hope.”...
But four years later, where is the hope? Where is the confident swagger and leadership to uplift the nation’s mood?...
We endorse Romney because he, unlike Obama, understands that jobs are a creation of business, not of government. And that to encourage job growth, we need policies that incent business to grow and provide it with a stable environment for that growth.
In the end, we need moderation, not ideology, to facilitate an economic recovery. It is the central issue that affects us all.
As the voice of the suburbs, we always have embraced this free enterprise philosophy as a bedrock of our principles. We view ourselves as independent, fiscally conservative, socially progressive, an advocate always for individual liberty. The Mitt Romney who governed Massachusetts governed it for the most part on those core beliefs as well....
Mitt Romney for president.

It also shows that out of all the endorsements of the last 100 years their record show that they aren't the best at guessing who will win.
Of all their endorsements they had a record of 14 to 9 where 14 of those they endorsed LOST.
Doesn't look like a good record IMO. Their picks haven't bode well in the past Republican OR Democrat.
Or, maybe it shows that they haven't been good at picking a winner. Maybe they're looking to change their image.
