Comments: Corpus Christi Caller Times Endorses Kerry

The funny thing is the statesman prints the NY Times for the local area too and runs their stories half the time in its own paper. It's clear that the publishers of the paper steered the board. They are all very conservative.

It's not an endorsement, but get set for Texas Monthly to (inadvertantly?) give a small bit of help to Republican candidates across the state. The November issue will have a smiling picture of the prim-looking First Lady on the cover. The story inside is relatively thoughtful; but the cover, designed of course to sell magazines, will be greeting every voter in every HEB across the state in the week before the election. You may remember that Tx Monthly did this last election, too, when they put an attractive picture of GW Bush on the cover of an unfavorable take on the president's impact on Crawford.
The excuse here is, no doubt, that Texas Monthly must play in the market. But it's a pretty lame excuse for plastering the public arena with favorable images of the Bushes, especially when folks can walk out of the supermarket and walk over to vote. The Bush race is a foregone conclusion, but in districts with close races elsewhere on the ballot, this could have an impact...

Ugh Texas Monthly has too many ads.

If you live in Texas you have to come to expect favorable coverage of the Bush family but who cares this race won't be decided here, now if they put this on stands in Ohio i'd be worried.
