On the heels of her endorsement by The Des Moines Register, we have two more newspaper endorsements for Hillary. One in Iowa, the other in New Hampshire.
What both of these endorsements have in common are, they both mention how qualified Hillary is to be President and her unmatched breadth of experience.
I know some say these endorsements don't matter, but they do help and change the narrative of a campaign in a positive way. Run up enthusiasm to the Caucuses is very important.
Nate Silver’s 538 posted that historically an endorsement by the DMR makes a 3% difference in the total vote. In a close race, like this one, it could make a difference.

When Clinton lost Iowa in 2008, the DMR endorsement was worth +1.1%. Again, in a close race endorsements like these could make a small, but important difference.

Without question, the 68-year-old Clinton possesses a breadth of experiences in public life unmatched by her Democratic opponents. In the "arena" at the fulcrum of national and international events since the '90s, Clinton requires no on-the-job training. She understands issues and knows leaders, both domestic and foreign, and appreciates the processes and peculiarities of the federal government from the perspective of both the legislative and executive branches.
From children to families to health care to human rights, including women's rights, to marriage equality, Clinton champions issues and positions true to traditional Democratic principles. She bolsters her domestic credentials with foreign policy experience as America's chief diplomat.

Only one Democratic candidate for president is truly qualified to hold the job: Hillary Clinton.
No contender’s resume can come within miles of matching Clinton’s. She’s ready to take up the nation’s top job on day one and her knowledge of domestic issues and foreign policy is encyclopedic. There is also a strong chance, should Clinton become president, that the poisonous partisanship that’s paralyzed Washington will be diminished rather than increased. Why? During her eight years as a senator from New York, she proved her ability to find common ground with Republicans, accords that allowed needed legislation to advance.
