Four years ago the publisher of the Watertown Daily Times was among
those with the tingle over 'hope and change', but now that's changed.
Today the paper dumped President Obama and endorsed Governor Mitt
Romney for President.
The paper cites a need for change and Mr. Romney's ability to handle
the economy as reasons.
One poll shows 9% of 2008 Obama voters are flipping. That's about 6.
3 million people meaning Mr. Obama's 10 million vote popular margin is now
about a 2.6million deficit. Of course there are many factors in what makes
up the electorate, so its still a neck and neck race. Locally, our on line
straw poll is a reversal of last summer's numbers with Mr. Romney polling 61
%.
This is the third time in a year the Times has turned on an
incumbent they previosly endorsed.
