Economist endorses Kerry

The Economist today endorsed John Kerry for President. Why is this significant? Well they endorsed Bush in 2000 and Dole in 1996, so this is a bit of a departure for the magazine. And if a widely respected and usually accurate publication like The Economist is endorsing someone other than the incumbent, what does that say about the state of the American economy or its outlook?

      maybe you meant that as a rhetorical question, but I figure it means that they figure they have a better chance at a good economy with Kerry than with Bush right?
