Who becomes the winner is often a question of sympathy
by Zuzana Blazeckova


The capturing the presidency of The United States in 2008 is coming closer and closer. Politicians debate about the candidates who have the best chance to win. They are not the only ones, because voters of politic clubs conduct many debates too. But the main difference between politicians and voters is the way and their point of view how to consider qualities of the candidates. Republicans and Democrates usually have strong opinions about who will be the winner. While Republicans put greater emphasis on policy, Democrates think personal traits are more important. Attitudes of voters are naturally a bit different. They prefer candidates being honest, strong and decisive instead their likability. The Associated Press and Yahoo!News decided to make a survey around the whole country, which will be based on principal of tracking the opinions of the same people in the course of whole campaign. The interesting part of results will be the fact, how the opinions of the same people will through the campaign change. In general point of view of voters depends on their backgrounds, their employee, age, religion, other beliefs or further experience. In case the elections would happen these days, probably the most likable candidates between democratic voters would be Hilary Clinton, the second position would obtain Barack Obama and the third one would be John Edwards. On the other side for republican voters it would be like the first one Rudy Juliani, the secon would be Fred Thompson and the third would finish John McCain.
