I agree with Silvestri's rationale: A lot of people can't, or refuse to, separate a news organization's editorial and news department. Many voters are set in their ways, and no newspaper will change their mind. All papers, in this day and age, should halt endorsements.
Is it unusual for a large paper's ME to be on an editorial board? I've always thought anyone involved in coverage decisions has no business on an editorial board. I understand some papers are so small they have no choice, and I always expect a publisher to get a seat at the table.
