Clinton, Obama say the other is being negative | Politics | Reuters Of course, if Obama had picked up this endorsement, it would be on the front page along with all the other positive headlines you see about Obama. The lovefest continues.

Clinton, who with her husband former President Bill Clinton were the subjects of many conservative investigations when they first entered the White House in 1993, was endorsed on Sunday by the Pittsburgh Tribune-Review whose publisher, Richard Mellon Scaife, funded many of those probes.

The Tribune-Review mentioned Clinton's record and experience in making the choice in the Democratic vote, but also cited her willingness to sit down with the newspaper's editorial board.

"Clinton's decision to sit down with the Trib was courageous, given our long-standing criticism of her," the paper said. "That is no small matter. Political courage is essential in a president. Clinton has demonstrated it. Obama has not."
