Some pundits say the "Bradley effect," may explain why the polls were so wrong in the New Hampshire Democratic primary, where Hillary Clinton won a stunning come-from-behind victory over Barack Obama.
Despite all the talk of how little race matters in this campaign, it is clear that race is still a big deal in biracial campaigns," argued David Kuo, a former policy adviser to U.S. President George W. Bush. "And it has showed up for the first time in a measurable way in the 2008 presidential race."

I disagree, Obama isn't 'Black' enough for people to discriminate. He grew up in Hawaii, he doesn't represent pacific peoples or black America. Clinton is however very representative of Women, Motherhood and has experience. It won't be the Bush oil man syndrome of a fighter pilot who never saw action and never found oil. Obama seems to be all hype and we know hat happened the last time a wraith become President.

Obama (as a person) is pretty irrelevant [just like the other candidates] given the manner in which things are being reported by the mainstream media.
Tell me, have you heard *anthing* during the reporting of the recent caucuses that pertained to the actual character, service, and voting history of **ANY** of the candidates?? Not jack squat has been reported about their record, policies, or their views / platforms. The ONLY thing being reported is how much money the candidate has, can raise, or are already spending of purchasing their sound bites. I know these people have spoken for HOURS over the past few weeks, but for the past two days I've heard nothing but the same quotes over and over and over and over.... none of it relative to politics.
That's how the wraith George W. Bush became president.... he BOUGHT it.

Maybe it's time to point out that Obama didn't really "lose" in New Hampshire, and neither did Clinton "win".
New Hampshire primaries are not winner-take-all.
Obama and Clinton each claimed 9 delegates, so they actually tied.
