Yesterday, The New York Times formally endorsed Senator Hillary Clinton for president. This endorsement is a large stepping stone for Clinton's nomination as the Democratic candidate for this November. Despite the cynicism that has surrounded Clinton's campaign recently, the media still understands that the Democratic Party must have a viable candidate in order to beat the Republicans in the general election.
Here's what they had to say:
"Hearing her talk about the presidency, her policies and answers for America's big problems, we are hugely impressed by the depth of her knowledge, by the force of her intellect and by the breadth of, yes, her experience.
"We know that she is capable of both uniting and leading. We saw her going town by town through New York in 2000, including places where Clinton-bashing was a popular sport. She won over skeptical voters and then delivered on her promises and handily won re-election in 2006.
"Her ideas, her comeback in New Hampshire and strong showing in Nevada, her new openness to explaining herself and not just her programs, and her abiding, powerful intellect show she is fully capable of doing just that. She is the best choice for the Democratic Party as it tries to regain the White House."
