Daily Press endorses John McCain
By | Monday, October 20th, 2008 | Politics

The Daily Press has provided their voice to the chorus of endorsements that will come out between now and election day. For their part, they have chosen Sen. John McCain.

Here’s a little of their justification:

Obama’s rating as the most liberal member of the Senate — or one of the most liberal, depending on who’s doing the rankings — coupled with his vote tally in the Illinois Senate, and his policy statements, make it clear that this is a man who believes that we need an interventionist government that knows what is best for us, and will dip into our wallets to achieve its ambitious aims, whether they have to do with fixing the nation’s uneven access to health care or rescuing failing corporations.
