Republicans had figured out a while back that after 8 long years of misrule by Bush, they were likely to get defeated against Hillary, but MAY have a better chance against Obama. One way to take the luster out of Hillary's run as the first serious female presidential contender was by having the first serious black contender run against her.

And hence they have been jacking up Obama as much as democrats are.]]

atif dear
This is the exact analysis that I have in my mind. Repubs, I heard massively supported CNN and other medias to downplay Hillary and boost Obama to make him the nominee b/c they're scared of Hillary's win and they know they can win Over obama within seconds.....WoW!!!

Zeenaji,

The Hindooos, being naturally a devious lot, worked this out a long time back. In 1993, we had an assembly elections in Delhi, INC and BJP were the main contenders with the left wing JD a distant third. To splinter the votes of Momins/SCs/slumdwellers (who are solid INC voters normally) they started portraying JD as the main rival in many donwmarket seats. With the result that INC's votebank split badly and BJP was the runaway winner. They have also done similar tricks in UP, Bihar also to split the Muslim vote bank of INC/SP etc.

Regards
