The News About Obama And Huckabee


The news was great in Iowa for Barack Obama and Mike Huckabee yesterday as they both won their caucuses. The reason the win was great is because they both won out over the front-runners of their respective parties. A big factor in the Huckabee win might have been that more than half of the Republicans said they were either born-again or evangelical Christians. The fact that Huckabee was a former preacher turn politician may have been a big help in winning this caucus.

Obama’s victory gives his campaign more hope as he beat out the Democratic front-runner Hilary Clinton. Obama spoke a lot about hope in his victory speech and the change in how the American people are thinking. “We are one nation, we are one people and our time for change has come." is one of the statements Obama made in his victory speech.

This was a critical first test in the run for the office of President it also narrowed the field of Democrats running for the office as Senators Joe Biden and Christopher Dodd dropped out shortly after the outcome was clear.

That’s the news about that. I hope the news about you is good news.
