The local Athens paper has endorsed Bush. That's not unexpected. What I find a little strange is the closing argument they make:
Beyond that, there are the intangible factors that help voters measure the people asking to be their president.
In that regard, we were somewhat troubled by a last-minute attempt by Kerry to close the gap with Bush. Kerry's recent hunting trip in Ohio seemed to us a bit too calculated in its attempt to bring in votes by painting Kerry as a regular guy.
With Bush, there's no question who you get for your vote.
With Kerry, you just can't be sure.
We certainly wouldn't want a president who dresses up in costume to score political points now, would we? The horror.
