Many college newspapers that endorsed Barack Obama for president in
2008 are not supporting his election again this year, another indication
that the Obama enthusiasm that swept across campuses four years ago has
faded.
A review conducted by The Daily Caller of campus publications indicates that at least 53 papers newspapers that endorsed Obama in 2008 have yet to endorse his candidacy again as Election Day approaches. TheDC arrived at this number by looking at 89 known papers that supported Obama four years ago.
Ryan Weber, the editor of the Daily Illini at the University of Illinois, explained to his readers last week that the paper decided against endorsing a candidate in the election after supporting Democratic nominee John Kerry in 2004 and Obama in 2008.
