REPUBLICANS ENDORSE LIEBERMAN
Manchester Union Leader Joins the New Republic

Presidential candidate Sen. Joseph Lieberman (D-Conn.) late yesterday won the coveted endorsement of the Manchester Union Leader in a brief editorial written by publisher Joseph W. McQuaid.

Oh, wait, the endorsement of the wildly misnamed Union Leader isn't coveted, at least not by any reasonable Democrat. New Hampshire voters recognize the paper, at least its editorial pages, for what they are: a cranky attempt at replicating the crankiness of The Wall Street Journal.

It's sort of like winning the backing of National Review.

Or the New Republic.
