Wow! http://www.msn.com/en-us/news/polit...e/ar-BBwInKy?li=BBnb7Kz&ocid=SK2BDHPhttp://www.azcentral.com/story/opinion/editorial/2016/09/27/hillary-clinton-endorsement/91198668/The Arizona Republic, the largest newspaper in the state, endorsed Hillary Clinton on Tuesday, the first time the 126-year-old publication has supported a Democrat for president. "Since The Arizona Republic began publication in 1890, we have never endorsed a Democrat over a Republican for president. Never. This reflects a deep philosophical appreciation for conservative ideals and Republican principles," the paper's editorial board wrote. "This year is different. The 2016 Republican candidate is not conservative and he is not qualified. That's why, for the first time in our history, The Arizona Republic will support a Democrat for president," it continued. Donald Trump, the editorial board wrote, does not understand the challenges the country faces, nor does he have the temperament to deal with them. The paper acknowledged that Clinton has weaknesses but argued that her experience, pragmatism and disposition makes her well suited to occupy the Oval Office. "Clinton retains her composure under pressure," reads the editorial. "She's tough. She doesn't back down." "She is intimately familiar with the challenges we face in our relations with Russia, China, the Middle East, North Korea and elsewhere. She'll stand by our friends and she's not afraid to confront our enemies." The paper also took a shot at GOP leaders who have backed Trump in the hopes that he will use the White House to advance conservative causes. "[T]hey shudder at the thought of Hillary Clinton naming Supreme Court justices," the board wrote. "So they stick with Trump. We get that. But we ask them to see Trump for what he is - and what he is not." "Trump's conversion to conservatism is recent and unconvincing. There is no guarantee he will name solid conservatives to the Supreme Court."
Communists: I still hate them even after they changed their name to "liberals".

The Arizona Republic is owned by gannett, the same corporation that owns usa today, l.a. times, etc. It has NOT been conservative in nature since it was sold to gannett.
That is very far from the truth.
It's name here often is "the arizona repulsive."
it is an open borders, anti sheriff Joe, piece of newswipe good for bird cages.

Hillary helped cause all the problems in the middle east. Obama supplies money and weapons to the terrorist.

The "temperment" crap is BS, created out of nothing. It is specifically designed to denigrate Trump. Hillary has well documented problems with temperment and dealing with people. Just like Trump said, she has experience, but it's BAD experience. She did a lousy job. What a bunch of crap.

What's the wow? The 'press' has been taken over by rich, agenda driven individuals who have financial interests contrarary to the good of America. They use pocket change to buy and sell the 'press.' The Arizona Republic is no different.

The Commercial Media has been for sale for a long time.
They sold out the American Public for special interest, profit, and big business long ago.
Every smidge of news anyone hears on MSM is designed and tailored to point or push you in the direction they want you to go.
Period.

I would not say the Republic is conservative. At least not in the sense that the WSJ and Fox is.

This is proof positive that you're a complete and utter moron.
No matter former track record, no matter the make up of the editorial staff, no matter ANYTHING... anyone who endorses Clinton CANNOT EVER be considered even for a SPLIT second a Conservative!
No amount of words can make the case. It's impossible.
And you're dumb enough to post something to the contrary.

Yup, they're all over it. Wish everyone else was. Can't see endorsing Clinton, though.

Most sorry-azz liberal progressive rag I have ever had the misfortune to try to read.
How anyone can refer to it as "conservative" is beyond me.

It used to be conservative. After Gannett bought it it wasn't anymore.
It had been sliding for a while but that purchase clinched it.
