...answer is quite likely no, because Obama won't be running against another Democrat in the general election. He'll be running against a Republican, and these days American Idol front-runner David Archuleta would have trouble getting votes as a Republican. But to the extent the answer is yes, it might have something to do with, you know, the factor we're not supposed to mention, the factor the Clintons keep getting in trouble for hinting at. It's just that Obama, well, this is awkward, but he's, um, black, and most voters aren't. According to exit...
...Syesha is a mystery. In seven out of the last nine weeks, she has been amongst the bottom three vote-receiving contestants, yet she continues to outlast seemingly stronger competitors. The past three weeks in a row she has been one of the bottom two vote-getters, suggesting she should be ousted the next week. And yet, every time, she survives...
...Make Inroads Among Traditional Democratic Voters These days Republicans love to talk about the larger crossover vote that McCain wins in the early and unreliable general matchup polls. In one Pew poll from late February, as many as 14 percent of Democrats say they will vote for McCain, compared to eight percent of Republicans who say they will vote for Obama.

As a result, the campaign has been encouraging wealthy donors to give even after they have reached their $2,300 donation limit...
...West was poised for bad news from the May 11 parliamentary vote in Serbia, where often shrill nationalist tones dominated the final days of the campaign. Instead it got good news: the pro-European Democratic Party emerged victorious, defeating the ultranationalist Serbian Radical Party and their allies. The Democrats, led by President Boris Tadic, won some 37% of the vote, or 103 out of 250 seats, which should enable Tadic to dominate Serbia's policies for the next several years. The Radicals came a distant second, with 77 seats, which works out at 29.1% while the Democratic Party of Serbia...
