For most people like myself who are not familiar much with the US elections and just watch it from far mostly through the very biased Bi-partisan media and the sponsored advertisements and debates....what appears to me is that in order to win the US election you have to prove to the electorates and the world that your opponent is not worth a nickle which in this case is usually a person of the highest integrity being a Governor of a state or the Senator of a very long standing.I don't know how an ordinary American voter feels about all this mudslinging and character assassination of the people of impeccable character just to run them over or out....of the race first within the party and then in the presidential election all I know is that even a ferrari has to come to the pit-stop once in a while and the car wash is a must for the very best just to keep it shinny and new...
In the last US Presidential elections we saw two fundamental innovations...the democrates had a black senator running for President and the republicans (gop) had Sarah Palin the alaska governor being ridiculed and pilorized by the media as the vice presidential candidate hand picked out of the blue (ice) to counter the presumed threat of senator Clinton who at that time was pretty confident of her winning the nomination.
Gov sarah palin somehow caused panic in the race and instead of helping in breaking the so called "Glass Ceiling" raised the bar for all town folks....
Obviously it was not a very calculated move or maybe it was if the Gop did not want the Whitehouse during a hard hitting recession.
Now it seems that there is absolutely no way America is going to re-elect Obama for the second term that almost became mandatory for US Presidents since President Reagan.
So before the race begins who would be the sponsors favorite because after all it was all about the dough in the end in the democratic camp which lead to an unbelievable defeat for Senator Clinton...She has already opted out for the next election after being so active as the secretary of state in the obama administration saying that she wants to retire.
So now its upto the republican party to field the right candidate and grab the spoils.
Republican rep from Minnesota Michele Bachmann seems quite interested to run for office at this point she is very little known to me but I do hope that she decides to run soon...
