The Roanoke Times weighs in after all, opting with "None of the Above" (alternately: fuck 'em all).

While, the Richmond Times-Dispatch's non-endorsement was more troublesome for the Cooch (as the RTD editorial board has a conservative bent), the Roanoke Times "fuck you all" is worse for the Macker - RT (until Obenshain this year) hasn't endorsed a statewide GOPer since 2001.

Anyone whose vote is influenced by who a newspaper endorsed really shouldnt be voting.

Theyre nothing but symbolic jestures, or should be anyway.

When you think about it though news organizations or sources shouldnt be endorsing anyone. Their coverage should be unbiased and they shouldnt have a dog in the fight.
