No GOP anchor in sight
Results from primaries so far show Republican party is adrift
The convincing victory by Mitt Romney in the Michigan primary on Tuesday means that they are in search of someone who can lead the party into a tough election and beyond President Bush. Romney won easily in Michigan, where he grew up, with a pointed focus on the slowing economy, which voters there overwhelmingly identified as the top issue. Senator McCain won New Hampshire last week with the backing of independent voters, who are so influential there. Huckabee of Arkansas won the caucuses in Iowa powered by social conservatives who make up a big part of its population.
Opinion
It is very good to know that McCain won the New Hampshire because of the independent votes. I think that maybe if McCain was a good senator and everyone liked how he served as a senator then he would win and become president. It is kind of hard to vote for someone to be president because all candidates say the same thing in order for us to vote for them. We cannot tell if they are telling the truth or not until they become president and do not do what they say they would do.
In Obama’s pursuit of Latinos, race plays role
He confronts history of often competitive relations between blacks, Latinos
Senator Hillary Clinton has eaten beef tacos in East Los Angeles and sat on the living room couch of a working-class family in a largely Hispanic neighborhood for 30 televised minutes. At a rally of the culinary workers union, Senator Barack Obama chanted with the crowd, “¡Sí, se puede." Although the two candidates aggressively court those voters, who could be vital for Democrats this year and for years to come, the challenge is especially complex for Mr. Obama. Hillary Clinton seems to challenge Obama supporters by making remarks in revelent to Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Obama confronts a history of often uneasy and competitive relations between blacks and Hispanics, particularly as they have searched for influence in cities like Chicago, Los Angeles and New York.
Opinion
If Obama seems to have a problem with hispanics then he is going to have a difficulty in being elected as president mainly because most of the population is made up by hispanics. But I don't know maybe Hillary is also a bit racist towards hispanics and maybe the onyl reason why she was eating tacos with the hispanics was just to get their votes. Maybe none of these two candidates would win the presidential election.
