The Best Man for the Job

In his latest video and speech campaign Obama has tried to portray himself as "deeply sensitized to the needs and aspirations of women." It is not a coincident that Obama new feminist campaign comes after the breakthrough that Senator Clinton's campaign has had on woman voters, especially among liberal women in Democratic primary states. Obama has no choice but to compete for women's votes, because 54% of the Caucus goers in Iowa and New Hampshire are women. Spokesman for Obama say that it is acceptable for a woman, even a feminist, to back someone other than the woman. So could gender really be a deciding factor for the 2008 Presidential Election?

"Faith in America"

On Thursday Romney will deliver a speech that will "share his views on religious liberty, the grand tradition religious tolerance has played in the progress of our nation and how the governor’s own faith would inform his presidency if he were elected.” With this speech, Romney hopes to easy the suspicions that many conservative Christians have about his Mormon faith. Romney's faith has "dogged" his campaign since it began, which is demonstrated in the many polls that show a large number of Americans would be unwilling to vote for a Mormon Presidential Candidate.
