Congressional Endorsements
Fox News
The New York Times says for the first time in memory it is not endorsing a single Republican Congressional candidate in tomorrow's elections.
The Times has always sprinkled in endorsements of moderate Republicans based on their records. It has endorsed current candidates Christopher Shays and Nancy Johnson as far back as 1990 —- and also favored past Republicans such asSusan Molinari, Lowell Weicker and Rick Lazio.
But now The Times says House Republicans have "wrecked the budget, hobbled the middle class and endangered the long-term economy." It describes Republican Congressional leaders as "burned-out" and "brain-dead."
The Times says the election is about President Bush— and blames Congressional Republicans for "protecting him from the consequences of his mistakes and misdeeds."
