Give them credit

I didn’t mention it last week but I should have. Though everyone has heard by now, last week the New York Times endorsed Chris Callaghan for Comptroller. Though I’m sure there were and still is a bunch of New York Times staff threatening a riot, the paper went ahead and did the right thing.

New York Liberals shouldn’t feel betrayed. Subjective papers like the NY Times need to seize as many opportunities as possible to show they can be objective and endorsing Callaghan over the corrupt Hevesi is as good as they come. Their endorsement is not like the knife in the back by the New York Post who endorsed Spitzer because Faso can’t win.
