VIRGINIA'S BIGGEST PAPER WILL NOT ENDORSE FOR GOVENROR

I was interested to see the Richmond Times-Dispatch offered a curt "no endorsement" in that state's tough gubernatorial race.

The editorial stated, among other things:
 
The major-party candidates have earned the citizenry’s derision. The third-party alternative has run a more exemplary race yet does not qualify as a suitable option. We cannot in good conscience endorse a candidate for governor.

This does not gladden us. Circumstance has brought us to this pass. This marks, we believe, the first time in modern Virginia that The Times-Dispatch has not endorsed a gubernatorial nominee.

Read the whole thing HERE.

Will see what impact if any this has.
