2. Arkansas: Arkansas Democrat-Gazette (wingnut editorial page...

[ClintonTyree]

3. Florida..................

I mean, what is the NY Post doing over there?

11. Sure is

Thanks.

10. For Ohio ...

The link Oblivious provided confirmed my educated guess -- the Cleveland Plain-Dealer and the Columbus Dispatch are the two most widely-circulated. Third is the Cincinnati Enquirer, fourth is the Toledo Blade and, bringing up the rear -- but still in their top 100 list -- the Dayton Daily News.
