Obama Charms US, Ends Racial Bias
Wa****ngton, Jan 4 (Prensa Latina) US media on Friday echoes the victory
of Democrat Barack Obama and Republican Mike Huckabee at the Iowa
caucus in the run to be President of the United States.
The Wa****ngton Post wrote in "An Earthquake in the Midwest" about the
triumph of Obama and Huckabee over other pre-candidates who had better
chances to win.
The results in Iowa are not determining, but they mean a hard blow for
the favorites: Democrat Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton, and
Massachussets' former governor Conservative Mitt Romney, the daily
stressed.
Huckabee, the choice of the country's religious extreme rightwing,
still has to face Senator John McCain Tuesday in New Hamp****re, a state
that will also be an acid test for Hillary Rodham Clinton, who cannot
afford to face another early loss, the publication reads.
According to the Post, Obama, an Afro-American, not only showed his
ability to defeat the former first lady, but also overcame racist
limits and the generation gap.
In the meantime, The New York Times commented that Obama's win in a
chiefly Caucasian state is a strong answer to the question about
whether the US is ready to vote for an Afro-American as president.
