« Obama's Texas talk | Main | Hutchison on another Republican VP list »
Presidential endorsements are out from the five biggest Texas newspapers. Barack Obama had a clean sweep on the Democratic side. It was also a good day for John McCain. (Note: The Morning News announced their endorsements back in December, well before Mike Huckabee's campaign stalled. Politicos will likely be debating whether the paper's op/ed board would have chosen differently had they waited until this week)

When President George H.W. Bush visits Houston with John McCain on monday February 18, someone should ask Pres. Bush what he meant by A NEW WORLD ORDER, when he made the statement that he wanted a New World Order and see if his version jives with the GOOGLE version, and for good conversation McCain should also be asked if he thinks A NEW WORLD ORDER is a good idea?
Another great question to ask John McCain is: What is the COUNSEL on FOREIGN RELATIONS (of which John McCain, Barack Obama, and Hillary Clinton are members), viewpoint on THE NORTH AMERICAN UNION?

Who and where would Hilary Clinton be if she had not married Bill Clinton? Certainly not a US Senator from New York. Certainly not a presidential candidate.

New World Order? Sounds like its from the charter papers of the PNAC (Project for the New American Century. You know, the neo-cons "We are the World" bunch.

I'm glad to see El Paso is for Obama. Billary made a big deal of appearing there and gave the impression the locals were for her and Bill, which they're not.

The major Texas newspapers also endorsed George W. Bush twice: Austin American-Statesman, Dallas Morning News, Houston Chronicle, San Antonio Express-News
