I found Caroline Kennedy's op-ed in New York Times summing up some of the thoughts I had for Obama. Many endorsement followed - Ted Kennedy, and the beloved Toni Morrison , the same author called Bill Clinton as 'First Black President' and of course John Kerry did it well before the South Carolina primary.
This was clearly an embarrassing moment for Clintons ..may be because Bill Clintons clumsy political tactics and distortion of facts. The most promising female Whitehouse contender now appears less appealing after all these dirty politics. Obama's victory speech was so inspiring . You could definitely tell this guys is class apart from the other people on the race. Most of the young people , white or black , voted for him in South Carolina. And that's definitely an indicator of his ability to unite the people divided on the race or gender for a common cause. Also the turnout of voters was another record and i could see the only thing changed this time is a man with a sensible but inspiring message.
Its a bad year for pollsters. None of the outcome so far is matching with predictions in case of Democrats. The margins are sometime way off from what actually predicted. May be we don't have to take the national polls seriously this time as the dynamics are so different with the presence of Obama. And that the confidence I gained on Obama as a candidate.
So its another momentum for Obama. He is getting endorsement from Senior democrats and all of a sudden 'experience' seems to be not a big deal in this race. If it was a big deal, he may not have got so many experienced people like Ted Kennedy and John Kerry at his side . From the endorsements, Obama is looked up as an inspirational leader who could really introduce some change that is long pending.
I am not sure how popular Obama is among other Democrats across the states. I am sure the recent victories and endorsements will provide him a lot of visibility among the primary goers. Same time, Clintos are the best recognised name in the US and whether its going to work for her positively is a different questions. I am pretty sure it might work good for Republicans in the general election.
