"We encourage Massachusetts Democrats to cast their votes for Barack Obama"
Gloucester Daily Times Endorses Obama

http://www.gloucestertimes.com/puopinion/local_story_032080756.html?keyword=secondarystory

"The best choice for Massachusetts Democrats in Tuesday's primary is Obama, the senator from Illinois.

We endorsed Obama among the Democratic candidates before the New Hampshire primary. We're taking this opportunity to reiterate that endorsement for Massachusetts voters and look at some of the developments in the campaign since New Hampshire.

Obama has shown on the campaign that he is an honest liberal who makes no apologies for his political philosophy. That stands in stark contrast with Clinton, who once stood to the left of her husband but now casts herself as a moderate.

Obama has conducted a positive campaign, one that draws people in. Obama is a natural leader, a man who exudes charisma and hope."

1. "Obama has conducted a positive campaign"
I would like to reiterate on that. He hasn't ran a totally clean and positive campaign. I believe neither he or Hillary have been positive the whole time. Example: He seems to have distorted her healthcare plan and using mailers to push the issue. That said, he is a politician and as such I am not shocked by it. That doesn't mean I don't respect him because he impressed me last night.

2. Nice to see...
I must have missed this one:
