BOSTON (AP) – The Eagle-Tribune newspaper of Lawrence, Mass., has again endorsed John McCain for president.

The newspaper says in an editorial set for publication Sunday that it backs the Arizona Republican senator because “the need for experience and reliability trumps a desire for change.”

The editorial says McCain has the courage to stand up to the terrorists and tyrants of the world, even if the United States must stand alone.

The editorial repeated McCain’s criticism of Obama, saying his policies would raise taxes on those with incomes over $250,000.

The newspaper, however, supported McCain before the New Hampshire primary.
