Clinton Wins Puerto Rico, Obama Wins Germany

Senator Hillary Clinton chalked up an overwhelming win in the Puerto Rican primary election this weekend, garnering more than two-thirds of the votes cast.

Not to be deterred, however, Senator Barack Obama can also claim a lopsided victory.

In the YouGov survey for the Daily Telegraph website, 67 percent of Germans polled said Democrat Obama would get their vote, while likely Republican nominee John McCain would get just a six percent vote.

“Germans are very much taken with his multi-cultural background and particularly his air of aristocratic humility,” Constanze Stelzenmüller, director of the German Marshall Fund in Berlin, told the paper.

I whiff a peculiar air also but I don't think it's aristocratic humility. As an aristocrat, Obama has the attitude but he exhibits humility only when humility is redefined to mean "blowing smoke up people's backsides." If anything, Obama is jammed to the rafters with arrogance. Just look at the people he calls his closest advisors to see where he learned it.

Unfortunately for Clinton, though, her victory in Puerto Rico is being viewed as merely symbolic while the hope, change and, now, aristocratic humility of the Obama campaign is considered a juggernaut.
