There are now b
asically two schools of thought that revolve around the future prospects of the two candidates. One school of thought says that Obama has a better chance to defeat a Republican candidate. There are two reasons behind this logic. The first is that Obama offers a vision for real change while Hillary practices a middle of the road kind of politics that embraces many Republican themes. Second and more important is the deep resentment and even hatred that the Clintons trigger amongst Neo-cons and the deeply conservative Americans who detest the very thought of another Clinton in the White House. There is a strong chance that Hillary as the Democratic candidate will attract an avalanche of sleazy allegations, a tidal wave of Monica Lewinsky jokes and a lot of mud thrown at the alleged peccadilloes of the former occupants of the White House. Some of the mud might stick and sink the Hillary candidacy. This school of thought thinks that most Democratic voters are smart and seem to realise this fact.
Yet, it would be foolhardy to write off the precision run election campaign of Hillary whose biggest asset would the deal making and negotiating skills of her husband and former President Bill Clinton. According to many analysts, while Obama may be attracting the media attention with highly publicised endorsements and support, Bill is busy furiously talking to and pumping hands with the people and the movers and shakers who really matter in the Democratic Party. And his eight years as President have left him with a huge fund of goodwill generated through his politics of patronage. Without any doubt, Bill now plays a decisive role in deciding the fortunes of Hillary and her candidature. Her top strategist, Mark Penn said, “The race will drag on for weeks longer; this is not going to be decided any time in the near future.”
Either ways, whether Hillary or Obama eventually win the nomination and the Presidency, they will create history. And they will inherit the job of the most powerful man on earth from a man who has decisively transformed America into the most hated nation on earth. That is when the real politics will begin.

of the company. The charter for the then – proposed gas corporation was: “to create necessary infrastructure for transport, processing and distribution of gas, to set up facilities for segregating natural gas into different components by a process called fractionation. Secondly, to acquire gas assets of Oil and Natural Gas Corporation and Oil India Limited. And lastly to act as coordinator for gas sector to ensure proper utilisation of gas.” Judge the significance of the words ‘proper utilisation’ that mentioned in the last line against the backdrop of the fact that gas flaring was then rampant in both onshore and offshore fields. This burning issue figured regularly in Parliament in the form of written questions. But things have changed today. There are hardly any questions that are asked about flaring. The new questions now primarily relate to supply, shortage and the price of gas that’s being supplied by various producers.
of its mash-ups have failed to either see the light of day or lost their sheen within a few months, just like web accelerator, Google Catalogue, Google video Player, Google answers, Orkut (it’s popular only in Brazil and Asia, and is a distant loser to facebook and MySpace in US). A fair criticism of Google as per Clayton Moran, Stanford Financial Group is that “It is only strong in one area – search advertising. In order to succeed in video and display, it has bought YouTube and DoubleClick. As such, Google has yet to successfully develop any other advertising service outside search. And, this creates some uncertainty around whether Google can build competitive businesses in mobile, radio, TV and print.”
