Race of 2008


As the race of getting votes from the caucuses and primaries continues, focuses are changing. During a CNN Talk Show, the always debating Edwards, Obama, and Clinton all agreed on each other's comments. Clinton started out fresh with the worry about health care providers and getting the uninsured insured. Obama said he completely agreed with Clinton and gave a rather good speech which caught Edward hanging with many "ums" as both Clinton and Obama stole the audience.

 Let's take a further focus now. During another piece of information given out by CNN, Clinton has mesmerized the votes of older celebrity audiences. Senator Obama captured the hearts of many younger celebrities such as Scarlett Johansson and many others. However, he also captured the heart of celebrity talk show hostess, Oprah Winfrey. Giuliani, likewise Clinton, also mesmerized the older celebrities. But the question remains the same: although the celebrity audience matters, who's the better candidate?

 In New Hampshire, Clinton was thought to have completely resigned to Obama, but the sudden turn of votes made a natural happy ending for Clinton (who currently has 3 caucuses and/or primaries). Clinton caught many minds of college students or pre-college adolescents. So does older and younger audiences matter most? Please comment your ideas by emailing us at bookworm.magazine@yahoo.com
