Over the past couple of days, according to recent reliable polls and surveys(www.fivethirtyeight.com), many swing states and percentage points have been turning in favor for Obama. Why is this?   Read More »

Well it is finally done. The democratic party will choose their nominee and switch its focus from the primary to the general election coming in November. This has been a very long journey for all democrats. You may ask, who will the senator from Illinois pick as his running mate?   Read More »

Barack Obama coasted to victory in Mississippi's Democratic primary Tuesday, latest in a string of racially polarized presidential contests across the Deep South and a final tune-up before next month's high-stakes race with Hillary Rodham Clinton in Pennsylvania.

His triumph seemed unlikely to shorten a Democratic marathon expected to last at least six more weeks â€" and possibly far longer â€" while Republicans and their nominee-in-waiting, Sen. John McCain, turn their attention to the fall campaign.

John McCain is nearly outspent by almost 3 to 1 and is looking for Republican support from many donors.

Neither of the two rivals appears able to win enough delegates through primaries and caucuses to prevail in their historic race for the nomination, a development that has elevated the importance of nearly 800 elected officials and party leaders who will attend next summer's national convention as unelected superdelegates.


The volatile issue of race has been a constant presence in the historic Democratic campaign, and it resurfaced during the day in the form of comments by Geraldine Ferraro, the 1984 Democratic vice presidential candidate and a Clinton supporter.
"If Obama was a white man, he would not be in this position. And if he was a woman (of any color) he would not be in this position. He happens to be very lucky to be who he is. And the country is caught up in the concept," she said in an interview with the Daily Breeze of Torrance, Calif., that was published last Friday.


Obama called Ferraro's remarks "patently absurd," as he should.

Six in 10 Obama supporters said he should pick the former first lady as his vice presidential running mate if he wins the presidential nomination. A smaller share of Clinton's voters, four in 10, said she should place him on the ticket.

After Sen. Clintons' victory in Ohio by larger numbers than expected, she has already stated she will go on, no matter what Texas ends up being for the candidates.
I wouldn't be too worried for her though, she is leading by 2% when it was in Obamas favor by much more early on.

One thing is for sure, it didn't come down to financing their advertising. Clinton was nearly outspent 3 to 1 in Ohio and Texas, but those peole have spoken.

Sen. Obama will need to keep his message strong and throw out all of the negative publicity with his campaign staff with meetings of Canadians and with the denoucment of the Islamic leader in Illinois.

Sen. Clinton is going to use the same tactics throughout until June, trying to keep the women vote, the hispanic and the elderly votes. She is also hoping for superdelegate strength to come and stay by her side.

Will see now with Indiana, and Pennsylvanina how long this election process will truly go.

A minor setback for Obama supporters tonight, but we can say that it wasn't much of a difference in delegate differences between the two candidates.

Two big states will hold their democratic nomination elections tomorrow, Ohio and Texas.
Both candidates feel good about their stances as they should.

America is definatley leaning more to the left this election, and why is this suprising?
Over 83% of americans now say that the economy is in fair or poor shape and that is up 11% in 2 months.

Americans want to see a difference that can bring positive change to the nation.
The one question is, Who will be that person to bring change?

Since Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton are battling head to head, it is tough to say what will happen if one candidate wins one of those big states and loses the other to the other candidate.

Some of her critics have said that if she doesn't take both Ohio AND Texas, Sen. Clinton should concede to Sen. Obama.
My assessment is that she will not do this. Until most superdelegates have swtiched their votes, I believe she is in it for the long run, and will fight for the nomination hopefully in Denver come June at the Democratic National Convention.

Personally, I hope Barack sweeps both Texas and Ohio, but will see how this plays out in less than 24 hours.
