How many days to fill the gap


Every trailing candidate says poll results do not speak much. Especially in Obama- Clinton race, many of the polls are proved to be wrong. Clinton now leads Obama in most of the polls by single digits except in her own state New York. LA Times endorsement of Obama as an inspiring leader really changed the scene in California quite a bit .

So as CNN analysts say, longer the campaign, less the gap between these two candidates would be. So that means Super Tuesday may not be the end of this race for Democrats and i will not be surprised its a tie with a lot of endorsements Obama picking up on his way to Super Tuesday. LA Times justified why they endorsed him . He is the only person who could restore the tarnished image of the US before the rest of the world and he is willing to talk to people who the US otherwise do not like to talk. Few things could solve through a war or threat .Any one knows from history that war based peace restoration was short-lived and diplomacy is the need for the hour.

He is surely inspiring and there is something unique about his leadership style . He appears to be totally believing what he says and there is no record that he is otherwise . Same time he is more than shrewed than a bright politician and i believe that's his strength when it comes to use the establishment to drive his ideas. We rarely see such leaders.

There was a time just before the South Carolina victory I thought Obama would be a scapegoat of divisive politics . Though i knew he would win SC i was worried what his national appeal would be after that. But SC turned out to be another booster like Iowa and now i think he is the most eligible candidate to be the next president of USA.
