For years, I've found it irritating as the public figures come out of the woodwork to endorse their favorite candidates. Remember when George Bush was going for his first term, and Alec Baldwin said he would move to Canada if Bush won. Bush won, but Alec never sought a northern exposure. Now we have our Governor endorse Obama. Rudy endorses John McCain after Rudy dropped out. When we get it down to the final Democrat against the final Republican, with an occasional final Independent, the endorsement parade will begin again. I don't think I have ever gone into a voting place thinking who has endorsed the man or woman for whom i will cast my vote. What do you think would happen if we ran an entire campaign and the media (of which I am most of the time a proud member) never reported an endorsement? Would America survive?
