Who is going to win the elections?

Filed under World

A few day’s back I was wondering that Obama is taking the lead against McCain in the US presidential elections 2008, but I think now it is really hard to assume who is going to win the elections?

The arrival of Sarah Palin in the elections scenario has changed the scene. Her arrival in the campaign boosted the chance of McCain against the Barack Obama, the democratic candidate for the presidential post.

A few day’s back the economic scenario in US steals the lime light from the elections. The economy was crashing and I am not sure if the people out there are blaming Bush for this or not. If people are blamming Bush for the downfall of the economy then I guess McCain would have also face the heat.

US is trying to recover from the economic crisis and might be at the end of the day McCain will emerge as the winner. Obama too got one slight blow from the Indo US Nuke deal too. What I found that people are thinking that they like McCain because he will make good relationship with other countries.

Although Barack Obama sent one letter to Indian Prime Minister Dr. Manmohan Singh, regretting that he could not meet with him. (For more detail please visit http://www.rediff.com/news/2008/oct/03ndeal.htm). People might think that he too will manage the same type of policies with other countries.

So I think it is really tough to guess who is going to win the presidential elections. I will be waiting for your views about this question: Who is going to win the elections? Whom are you going to support? Please post your views in the form of comments.

Hillary Clinton backs Obama, calls to unite!

Filed under World

Giving an end to the duel war, the former presidential candidate Hillary Clinton has declared her rival Barack Obama as her candidate for US Presidency. She appealed for unity in her much-anticipated speech to the Democratic convention.

“Barack Obama is my candidate. And he must be our president,” she said to 15,000 delegates at the Democratic National Convention supporting her opponent in the hard-fought and bitter contest.

“This is a fight for the future. And it is a fight we must win together,” she said as a raucous crowd in the 18,000 capacity arena chanted “Hillary” and held up white signs bearing a stylized version of her signature.

In an appeal to join America’s first black Presidential nominee, Clinton said, “Whether you voted for me, or voted for Barack, the time is now to unite as a single party with a single purpose. We are on the same team, and none of us can sit on the sidelines.”

“No way, no how, no McCain,” she said, referring to Republican White House candidate John McCain.

The New York Senator’s speech was the first of a one-two punch from the Clintons — former President Bill Clinton will address the convention on Wednesday — after fighting a barely disguised feud with the Obama campaign.

The first woman Presidential nominee in US history praised on Senator Joseph Biden as Senator Obama’s running mate. She said Senator Obama was a strong leader and a good man who understood economic stresses at home and challenges abroad.

Hillary Clinton’s 18 million Primary voters are vital to Obama, as his White House race with McCain has tightened to a dead heat, and the rivals are slugging out a desperate battle for swing states like Ohio.
