Okay, never heard of the Storm Lake Times? Well, I hadn't either, but they have just endorsed Joe Biden for President, so I had to look them up. They are a small, but powerful paper in the county of Buena Vista, Iowa--Iowa folks, is where the Democratic nomination will first take shape. Joe was the first of all the candidates to pick up a newspaper endorsement of any size. He has already picked up an astounding number of political endorsements in the state, so this is a great sign for those of us who are trying to get the word out past the hype of the celebrity candidates.
At least in Iowa, where the voters and the local media get healthy and frequent up-close exposure to all the candidates, Biden is really starting to shine through. In its endorsement of our guy, the paper wrote, "Biden is our choice for the nomination for the powerful personal story he shares, for his deep knowledge of international affairs, and for his long record of exemplary service in the United States Senate". But they also wrote of his connection to the voters as he met with them in their living rooms around their county. They noticed not only his experience, but also his genuine nature and his real effort to connect with the people of Iowa.
Don't give up on Joe Biden. Spread the word!
