The New York Times<\/i> editorial board REALLY<\/b> wanted to endorse Amy Klobuchar, despite the fact that she has never been able to break 3%.<\/p>\n
My theory is that they are impressed that she is a complete and utter turd to her staff, and they want a kiss-up\/kick-down kind of person.<\/p>\n
So, instead, they endorsed both Elizabeth Warren and Amy Klobuchar, to avoid mockery. (No link, they don’t deserve my minuscule traffic)<\/p>\n
If you find the OP\/ED, it’s just a Google away, you will note that their endorsement of Warren is an exercise in negging. (“Gifted Storyteller”, etc.)<\/p>\n
The editorial board of the Times<\/i> is more than comfortable with the status quo, which does pretty well for people like them, so they want more of the same, just without Trump.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
