Man. Bites. Dog. The Nashville Tennessean Endorses Romney For President

Loooosey!!! Wha' happened?!!!!

The Nashville Tennessean has been the lap-dog of the Democrat party since time immemorial. They even hired Al Gore Sr.'s ne'er-do'well son as a staff writer back in the day, keeping the boy supported until the family could find him something respectable-looking to do.

That worked out well...

There was not a spending program, entitlement, progressive social cause, or Democrat candidate too stupid or odious to not merit the endorsement of Nashville's morning paper.

OS, and hundreds of thousands of other Tennessean readers, tired of it, and let subscriptions lapse, never to be renewed. The paper kept getting smaller, saying less and less, not even employing decent grammar many times in the past few years.

Only the die-hard Left stuck with it, as the paper kept printing what they so desperately wished to read.

The Fat Lady has begun to vocalize in earnest about Barack Obama when even the most brain-dead of editorial staffs, e.g. the Tennessean, has decided enough is enough.

After several paragraphs of hand-wringing in earnest, here come the words that matter most:


However, for all [Obama's] efforts, ranging from the stimulus package to green-energy development, to bring us out of recession, he has never found the key. He has generally made poor choices of the people needed to get the job done, such as Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner. And the number of jobs created during his term simply has not kept up with demand.

Should President Obama, as some suggested, have devoted his early political capital to jobs and debt reduction and pursuing Wall Street criminals, instead of health reform? Time will tell. But it’s clear whatever shaky bridges were burned in the push for health reform only emboldened Republicans to oppose his subsequent economic proposals. That has rendered much of his presidency ineffective.
Barack Obama was elected in 2008 with a call for hope and change. Perhaps the change he spoke of could only come with the help of Mitt Romney.

Enough is enough is enough is enough...not even the Tennessean can afford to pretend that the country will survive four more years of Obama.
