Even before voters in West Virginia cast their ballots, [Hillary Clinton]'s likely gains in delegates have been offset by a surge in Democratic 'superdelegate' endorsements for Obama. My advice is, stay the course," said Pennsylvania Governor Ed Rendell, a member of Clinton's inner circle. "We've gone this far. Why disenfranchise six states? Clinton's campaign was buoyed Monday by a Suffolk University poll showing her with a 36-percentage point lead in West Virginia, a potential 'swing' state in November's general election.

It's not over yet," Clinton, who would become the country's first female president, told supporters Tuesday night in New York. More surprising was that [Barack Obama] won more than 43 per cent of white voters in the heart of Dixie. It was almost double the number of white votes he won in South Carolina's primary on Jan. 26. The big gains among white voters suggest Obama's candidacy is increasingly crossing racial lines. "We're still on our feet and, much to the amazement of many, we're getting there.

Although both the media and the comedians overwhelmingly welcomed [Barack Obama]'s victory, they were left a little nonplussed by it -- who will they kick around for the next four years? W., or Dubya as he was derisively referred to by many East Coast columnists, could do nothing right. His successor, on the other hand, can do nothing wrong. Barack Obama is perfect in every way, if one can judge by media reports preceding and following his election. You can tell jokes about God, or at least about the belief in God. I can tell you one. God was wanting a vacation but couldn't decide where to go. The archangel Michael suggested Mars. "Too cold," said God. What about Venus? "Too hot," said God. Well, how about Earth, Michael asked? "Oh no," said God. "I went on holiday there about 2,000 yea...

Writing in the latest issue of Policy Options, published by the Montreal-based Institute for Research on Public Policy, Robin Sears and Joseph Lavoie - who worked on the Obama campaign - offer an assortment of "lessons that Canadian politicians of every stripe could learn from." Endorsements are another effective tool in the political kit, says the Policy Options article, citing the boost Obama received from well-timed expressions of support from celebs such as Oprah Winfrey and Colin Powell.

[John McCain] was quick off the mark in laying out his battle plan, painting [Barack Obama] as a naive, free-spending newcomer and accusing him of denying funds to U.S. soldiers who've done a "brilliant and brave" job. This is, indeed, a change election," McCain said in New Orleans. "No matter who wins this election, the direction of this country is going to change dramatically. But, the choice is between the right change and the wrong change; between going forward and going backward. "It's not change when John McCain decided to stand with George Bush 95 per cent of the time, as he did in the Senate last year," said Obama, who suggested his rival should spend more time visiting small-town Americans and less time visting Iraq.

[Bill Clinton] and Hillary Clinton -- "Billary" as they are now somewhat derisively being called -- have had a bad two weeks. Though they are shrewd enough and well organized enough that she remains the front-runner for the Democratic nomination, in the days leading into the South Carolina primary last weekend, Billary were so badly off their game as to make some sensible observers think they might yet deliver the nomination to Senator Barack Obama, or worse, deliver the presidency to the Republicans in November. On Monday of this week, Kennedy, along with his son Patrick, a U.S. Congressman, and Caroline Kennedy, the daughter of President John F. Kennedy, publicly endorsed Obama. Pundits are generally divided over the value of "name" endorsements but it appears that both Obama and the...

Blame some of those poll declines on Bill Clinton. The former U.S. president's attacks on [Barack Obama] before the South Carolina primary are now widely believed to have damaged his wife's campaign -- driving black voters and liberal Democrats like Ted Kennedy firmly into the Illinois senator's camp. [John McCain]'s victories over former Massachusetts governor Mitt Romney in South Carolina and Florida have created an air of inevitability about his campaign. He's won a gaggle of high-profile endorsements and appears to have cleared the one hurdle that most threatened his campaign -- lack of money. Another phenomenon is at play among Republican voters. Romney's failure to beat McCain in this week's Florida primary -- despite a heavy emphasis on the economy -- was seen less as a sign of...
