Now it's official. Hillary gets her first PA newspaper endorsement, with this from Richard Mellon Scaife's Pittsburgh Tribune Review:

In an obvious effort to up sagging sales, Dimitri Vassilaros, an editorial page columnist for the paper and fill-in weekend talk show host, gave a "teaser" yesterday on KDKA Radio 1020, announcing that "there will be a very surprising editorial in tommorow's paper, for anyone who has followed national politics since 1992."
Scaife, we should recall, was largely responsible for outing many of the Clinton scandals of the '90s.
Does this endorsement mean anything? Definitely not! The Tribune Review has one third of the readership of its competitor, the Pittsburgh Post Gazette. The fledgling paper is commonly used to line birdcages, clean up spilled whiskey and wrap freshly shot Pennsylvania game, particularly ducks. Actually, the whole affair is an embarassment.
