an equal and opposite reaction

I thought Barak Obama seemed a little subdued this morning, perhaps understandably given the 10% lead Mrs Clinton enjoyed in last night's primaries. This race, it seems, will go all the way and though the statistics seem to be all on his side I am not holding my breath just yet. She is a very determined customer and will not yield easily.

Most dismaying for America must be the clear fault lines of race upon which the democrat race is dividing...black people, it seems, are voting in their droves for Obama with Clinton winning less than 25% of their vote - for every action there is an equal and opposite reaction: it looks like this race might yet end by exposing a racial rift people would prefer to pretend does not exist...
