Obama Should Keep the BlackBerry
WASHINGTON — Barack Obama, poor guy, would just like to go out for a walk. One of the most poignant moments in his interview with “60 Minutes” came when Steve Kroft asked the president-elect how his life had changed since Election Day. “There’s still some things we’re not adjusted to,” Obama said.
GOP Tancredo-ing Its Way to Defeat
SAN DIEGO — Some Republicans are saying the party was on a fool’s errand trying to win over Hispanics. In this election, most Hispanics voted for the Democratic nominee for president just as they have in every presidential election since they helped elect John Kennedy in 1960. There have been elections where Democrats ran away with the Hispanic vote (i.e., Bill Clinton), and others where they were barely able to gain a majority (i.e., John Kerry). When it comes to winning over Hispanics, Obama is no Bill Clinton. The former Illinois senator received 67 percent of the Hispanic vote while Clinton got 72 percent in his 1996 re-election bid. Still, it was an impressive showing for the president-elect.
