Nevada Next

New York Times: The Democratic race goes to Nevada next, Obama as his Campaign Manager and the NYT point out have gained Union support while Clinton is getting the Democratic Establishment. This vote could set the trend, if Obama wins a edge in the race to win the nomination if Clinton wins she is on a roll to the nomination. Its Las Vegas time folks, whats happens in Vegas stays in Vegas, in this case a political career.

Obama and the Democratic Base


Views saw Senator Obama on Sky News, the Senator was in New Jersey, it seems that the Senator has learned the lesson of New Hampshire, the speech was full of meat for the Democratic Base, the evils of the world, Iraq, Corruption, Katerina was the blame of the Bush Administration. Is this is a wise road to go down if he wants to keep Independents and Moderate Republicans voting for him.

The Road to the Oval Office

Newsweek: Interesting article that has a look at the very long road to the election in November. The Result will be debated for years by Political geeks.

The Day After

A good night sleep can help clear the mind, is Hillary Clinton going to win the nomination, it can be argued that her comeback in New Hampshire is better than Bill Clinton in 1992. But on the other hand Bill did not have to deal with Obama, and the media almost going out of its way to underplay New Hampshire. There is comeback talk but then there is also Senator McCain. It can be argued, Clinton had a few bad days, McCain was seen as dead in the water when it came to the Presidential Race. The Campaign Manger for Senator Obama has come out with a few positives, Union Endorsement and Money. This race is not over, but you would have to give Clinton the Edge. On the other hand if Obama can win Nevada and South Carolina, then it could be down to Super Tuesday.
