Sure, Congresswoman Gabrielle Giffords has captured the endorsement of the Tucson Weekly, the Arizona Republic, the Arizona Daily Star and the Tucson Citizen in her race against Republican Tim Bee. But she was saving the big one for now–just one week before the Nov. 4 election.
That’s right: Giffords, who is married to astronaut Mark Kelly, is the cover girl on the November issue one magazine that every politico is eager to land in the final stretch: Military Spouse.
This is what we in the biz call a game-changer. Bee is finished now, unless he can send his wife Grace off to an accelerated session of space camp.

I fail to see how being married to a military spouse makes up for all the bad votes and judgement Gabby has shown over the last two years. Her media people did a good job of timing this article. When you are a incumbent you get to pander to a specific audience and get this kind of free press. If you are a Democrat you also get Nintzel to cheerlead for you regardless of your record.
