How low can you get?

The current election campaigns are tearing the democrats apart by all this sledging. To say that only one side is indulging in it would be a lie, since both the sides, that is the camps of both Hilary and Obama are pretty much having a go at it. But one should point out that at least Obama’s side seems to be doing their research so that whatever they ‘sledge’, it sticks.

Case in point is the NAFTA issue, which Hilary can deny until she is blue in the face but the facts speak for themselves. Whereas the Clinton camp seems to be circulating a photo of Obama wearing a turban, and implying that all those who wear one are Muslims.

Well his HRH prince Charles wore one but that did not make him one nor did the fact that Omaba was a chief guest who was asked to try out a costume stop the Clinton’s from sledging.

This election has bought out the best and the worst in Politicians, as usual but what really surprises me is the fact that a well seasoned politician like Hilary can make mistakes as the one she did with the photo. Rule of the thumb is that if you are going to sledge then you better do your homework to make sure that the dirt sticks!

Obama wows the Global democrats!

The change is fast sweeping the mindsets of the democrat primaries and with Obama winning the global primaries it seems to be a non starter for the likes of Hilary Rodham Clinton. Obama seems to be on the move and both Hilary and McCain are getting a bit antsy where he is concerned. They both seem to be eager to dig up all the dirt that they can get on Obama and it seems that the dirt trail is hitting them instead. I shall cover that later.

For now, Obama is trying to look ahead to the Texas state and hope that the momentum will carry him through in that state as well. The Texas has always been a stronghold for the Clintons but thanks to George Bush and his policies, people may just want a change. The people well remember that the last time a Clinton was in the White House, the United States stood for sex, lies and videotape. So they are not going to be in a hurry to vote another Clinton in and they may well want a change for the better.

The primaries are for the next month and it is a touch and go for Hilary. Most of the media organizations are predicting a dead heat between the two of them and after the next month it will be the war of the Super delegates. I am sure that to the rest of the world this election must seem confusing at the very least, but then again, this is the process and one that we all must have to go through whether we like it
or not!

Vote Obama, Not Clinton!

It is that time of the year again when all the crazies come out of the basements and try to entice us with a truckload of sweet nothings. But the one candidate that has come out on the top and seems to be sincere of the whole bunch is none other than Barack Obama. This guy certainly seems to be the one to lead the United States out of Iraq and into the golden future.

I for one would not advocate choosing Clinton, let us not forget all the baggage that goes with them. I have to say that piece where Hilary almost broke down in public seems to be too good to be true. Let us not forget that this is the woman who is supposed to have stood by her husband in spite of his cheating ways, and all for the sake of power. The Clintons have proved again and again that they would do anything for the sake of power and as such, should be given the shove to, when it comes to the nominations!
