Reagan in the New York Times
New York Times: A very interesting article that sets out to prove that none of the present Presidential Candidates are another Ronald Reagan. They go through all the Reagan positives, tested in previous campaigns, 1968 and 1976, one of the best political speakers in the history of the USA, leader of a Conservative movement, as Obama is hoping to be the leader of his own movement. The point is none are another Reagan so vote Democratic.
South Carolina and Nevada Results
I was right about the Nevada result, Clinton winning with high single digits, over 5 %. I was out on the McCain result, I was to generous, in the end McCain won by 3 % over Huckabee.
The Final Results:
Nevada:
Clinton 51 %
Obama 45 %
South Carolina:
McCain 33 %
Huckabee 30 %
The outcome of Nevada is odd, CNN last night stated that both Clinton and Obama would gain 14 delegates but that includes Super Delegates, Governor etc who is a Democrat. Without counting Super Delegates, Obama would be ahead. What is the point of Clinton winning if she does not get the majority of the Delegates. But that is the Democratic Party!! McCain if does not make slip ups should be the nominee of the Republican Party after Super Tuesday.
