Barack Obama with
different strategy in Iowa
While the Clintons rally
in West Iowa, Barack Obama will visit the central and eastern
parts of the state.
Iowa,
the state with the first caucuses of the nomination process, is
getting a lot of attention from the Democratic leaders in the
2008 Presidential Race. Just after Barack Obama announced his
record-breaking fundraising skills on Sunday, he is going on a
two-day travel across the state of Iowa.
Over $32 million in contributions for
the second quarter was reported by the Obama's camp. The numbers
would make for a much more confident Barack Obama in Iowa this
week. The Democrat announced a campaign approach much different
from Hilary, and for that matter, his usual style of
campaigning. He will focus on smaller meetings with the locals,
something that many analysts believe is not the strong side of
the candidate.
There are no improvements in the odds on
Barack Obama to win the 2008 Presidential Elections, remaining
at 7/2 by Sportsbook.com and 10/3 by the British oddsmaker
Bet365, despite the record
number of his Q2 fundraiser. All bookmakers are currently
awaiting the poll results, after the two top Democrats are done
sweet-talking Iowa, before they adjust the odds.
