Here is a list of 28 papers that obviously endorsed Barack Obama 4 years ago and, as a result of his monumental failures, are now actually endorsing Mitt Romney.

1. 
“ The economy is growing at an unacceptably anemic rate”
–The Des Moines Register
2. 
“It verges on magical thinking to expect Obama to get different results in the next four years.”
–The Orlando Sentinel
3.
“More pointedly, we are disappointed in the tone of Obama’s relentless insinuations that wealthy Americans refuse to pay their fair share. That tone is divisive and damaging for the nation and for our economy. It creates villains and victims, and unfairly so.”
4. 
“ The president has shown little understanding of how his failures are affecting the nation, and he hasn’t offered any tangible proposals to change course.”
–Reno Gazette-Journal
5. 
“Obama’s signature achievement was confusing and ill-timed. The byzantine Affordable Care Act worsened uncertainty for business during a recession and will compound the costs of workplace benefits for four out of five working-age Americans.”
–Florida Today
6. 
“Nationally, the one thing that is needed above anything else is job creation. Yet, the president’s economic proposal is to raise taxes on the job-creating class. Why ever would you raise taxes on anyone when real unemployment is around 15 percent? That defies all economic theories. Let’s face it: Romney is more of a businessman than a politician. You can resent his wealth all you want, but he has a proven record as a turnaround artist.”
–The Daily Tribune, Royal Oak, MI
7. 
“As Texans, it is a particular vexation that this president’s attitude toward the interests of our state has occasionally bordered on contempt, particularly in decisions relating to the NASA budget and the energy sector.”
–Houston Chronicle
8. 
“President Obama’s steps to get spending under control and reduce the debt are too tentative, and again hark back to his inability to possess the leadership to break the partisan gridlock in Congress.”
–The Tennessean
9. 
“Instead of taking charge in Washington, Obama has shown unwillingness to take even the most basic step in presidential leadership: picking up the Oval Office phone to bring his influence to bear on reluctant representatives and senators.”
–Los Angeles Daily News
10. 
“Romney is an agent of change whose primary campaign thrust has been the economy and his plans and qualifications to improve it.”
–Fort Worth Star-Telegram
11. 
“But today, rather than articulate a compelling vision for growth, the president falls back on the tired talking point of increasing taxes for the wealthy.”
– Sun Sentinel Fort Lauderdale, FL
12. 
“The president laments congressional gridlock that fomented
under the inflammatory leadership of Rep. Nancy Pelosi and Sen. Harry
Reid. The president’s deference to their reckless rhetoric further
deepened congressional divide.”–Quad-City Times
13. 
“Four years ago, the editorial board’s willingness to change horses in the middle of a churning river led us to call for voters to break the Republican hold on the White House and try a Democrat with a fresh spark. Today, it leads the editorial board to urge voters to say “enough” to a Democratic administration whose sincere best has turned out disappointing, and install a seasoned leader with a record of fixing problems.”
–Long Beach Press-Telegram
14. 
“Four years ago, we recommended Barack Obama be elected. He offered himself as someone who could bridge the wide chasm between Democrats and Republicans. However, after four years, the situation has worsened.”
–Pensacola News Journal
15. 
“Mr. Obama may have great ideas, but if he can’t get them through Congress — and there’s no reason to think anything on that account will change after Nov. 6 — they are worthless.”
–The Reporter
16. 
“Some of the warnings about Obama’s lack of legislative and
leadership skills have come true over the past four years. It is not
worth risking the state of our economy for the next four years to see
whether his learning curve really is behind him.”–Naples Daily News
17. 
“Class warfare might be a successful strategy for cobbling together 270 electoral votes. But it’s not the way to unite a divided nation. The president comes to town on a Monday, takes our money, shakes our hands and tells us how much he values the CEOs and innovators of New York. And then on Tuesday, he turns around and refers to business leaders as fat cat bankers whose success was created by the sweat of others. That’s not a friend. That’s not a leader. That’s a politician.”
–The New York Observer
18. 
“Voters may well wonder if Obama even knows what it means to get spending under control.”
– Billings Gazette
19.
“Instead of following through on his hope-and-change message, Obama keeps telling us the limits of hope and change.”
–Pasadena Star-News
20. 
“In 2008, an unproven Obama promised things would turn out
differently with him in charge. “Change we can believe in” is how he put
it. Four years later we realize it was all made up.”–Fitchburg Sentinel & Enterprise
21. 
“It was the vision of hope and change that convinced us four years ago to support then-Sen. Barack Obama over Sen. John McCain. Today, there is little hope in how another four years of an Obama administration would swiftly and effectively lift our country out of its economic doldrums, and there is little change in how Washington operates.”
–Cape Cod Times
22. 
“Good intentions, repeated promises and lofty rhetoric are no substitute for sound economics and a foreign policy grounded in realism and strength.”
“Obama spent a year to win razor-thin passage of a divisive law that has spawned fights over expensive mandates, new taxes and infringement of religious liberties.”
–Worcester Telegram & Gazette
23. 
“It is true that in 2008 we endorsed the change promised
by Obama, but the reality today is – four years later – we have little
confidence Obama will be more successful managing the economy and the
budget going forward. Indeed, we feel change is needed again. And we
believe Romney fills that ticket.”–The Shreveport Times
24. 
“Sure, funding for public broadcasting is an insignificant
part of the budget, but if Obama isn’t even willing to cut one
one-hundreth of 1 percent of federal spending for something that is
non-vital to America, then the president is not serious about reducing
spending at all.If Obama is not serious about that, he is the wrong person for the job.”
–The Joplin Globe
25. 
“But here’s the rub: Obama has had four years. What
improvements he’s overseen are largely incremental. Instead, lectures
become excuses. And the excuses wear thin. Eventually, Obama’s words,
meant for Romney, blow back: Where’s the plan? Where does this White
House administration see America in four years? In all of that
campaigning, that plan didn’t emerge.”– Journal And Courier, Lafayette,IN
26. 
“This administration from day one has waged a deplorable
crusade to kill coal mining jobs, and to close coal-fired power plants,
through a politically motivated Environmental Protection Agency.”–Bluefield Daily Telegraph
27. 
“Obama’s Term In The White House Has Been Quite Possibly The Most Disappointing Presidency In The History Of The United States.”
–Casper Star-Tribune
28. 
“President Obama has strong support among women and ethnic minorities, but his avowed goal of bringing together all Americans remains only a faint dream. After four years, he has run out of time.”
–The Vancouver Columbian
