For some months, I have been following the bitter and intense democratic nomination battle. Even though it hardly makes any difference to me sitting in India, this battle amuses me quite a lot. The two nominees for the democrats- Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton have not left even a single stone unturned in trying to belittle each other.

Hillary Clinton and her managers have been a little complecant in their approach. They have squandered a comfortable lead that they had earlier, and it is Obama who leads the delegate count. As things seem, neither candidate will reach the magic number of 2025. However, Obama seems to be having a brighter chance of making it to the nomination. Time will tell what happens.

This nomination fight has been pretty exciting. First it was the Hillary campaign who had called Obama a ‘black man’. Then it was the Obama campaign that called Hillary a monster. Then we saw a crazy pastor jumping around on You TUBE ! So, its been quite a circus of late ! ;)

All this time, the Republican nominee John McCain has been enjoying his time by visiting other countries and socializing! It seems as if the democrats will keep fighting each other and the republicans will win the election ;)

For all those reading this, who is your choice for President and why? Justify!

  2. Hillary Clinton is my choice for president because her policies, which are not very different from Obama’s, are more spelled out and substantive. I think she has been vetted politically and is more committed to the Democratic Party.

  5. I honestly don’t know who will win. I suspect Obama will if he doesn’t implode, as the big guys in the party are ganging up against Clinton. But they are doing that because they are afraid of what will happen in Pennsylvania. So we’ll see.

  6. The democratic nomination has been the best reality tv this past season! However, I am ready to move on. I am a little torn between the two, but I hope Obama wins. We need fresh ideas and change.

  7. I’m expecting someone to demand a recount no matter which one wins the nomination.
