Another late endorsement, but, meaningful nonetheless, coming as it is from Sen. McCain's home state.
For anyone looking for reasons TO vote for Sen. Obama, or perhaps an explanation for WHY some will or have already voted for Sen. Obama, I personally feel that this editorial lists the most substantive reasons.

From the editorial:

"However, the ways of the past, which we believe McCain understands, will not work in this new America. The future requires new tools and new expertise. A premium must be placed on more than just love of country. We must re-embrace American ideals and lead the world on a stronger path to prosperity and peace.

The time is now and the leader is Barack Obama. The Star endorses Obama for president of the United States."

That is no big relection on McCain. Arizona's demographics have changed the past 4 yrs due to a large influx of liberal Californians.

They remember and know the truth about McCain and the Keating Five and the mob history of the Hensley(Cindy) family.
