2008-09-06 05:00:08PPP leaders say "at times Zardari seems paranoid" because of his past experiences
Islamabad, Sept 6 ANI: Though his party the PPP has brought forth strong defence in support of his mental health, some of his party insiders say that PPP Co-chairman and presidential hopeful Asif Ali Zardari seems paranoid at times because of intense public scrutiny, numerous threats to his life and his wife's highly public assassination last year.According to the Washington Post, Zardari's circle of trusted aides and advisers is "relatively small as a result". "At times, he is someone who tries too hard to read between the lines, and he seems to be someone who is quite fearful of the invisible hand of Pakistan's intelligence agencies," the paper quoted a party adviser on the condition of anonymity.Several other PPP leaders are of the similar opinion, claimed the paper.It said that Zardari aides have mounted a vigorous defense, saying that the reports of 60 million dollars in frozen assets were "untrue". They have also sought to recast his reported mental health problems as a natural but temporary result of years of torture."Like anyone who has been through 11 1/2 years in prison, his health was affected at that time. But he is a remarkable and resilient person. He is in extremely good health in every sense," said Farah Ispahani, a top PPP spokeswoman. It further said that an assassination attempt on Zardari's political associate and Prime Minister Yousaf Raza Gillani on Wednesday served to raise already heightened concerns about Zardari's safety. "Those concerns are one reason he has largely refrained from making public appearances or granting interviews in the days leading up to the election," say his supporters. The paper said that if he becomes the President, Zardari will face the daunting test of a divided Parliament. In recent days, he has come under attack from former prime minister Nawaz Sharif, his onetime partner in the coalition government formed after their parties were swept to power in Feb. 18 national parliamentary elections.

2008-09-06 05:00:00McCain still trails Obama 44 percent to 48, despite "recouping some losses"
Washington, Sep 6 ANI: The Republican National convention may have helped presidential nominee Senator MCCain to "recoup some of his losses" in public support, according to Gallup polls.Its latest tracking poll of the presidential race shows Democratic nominee Barack Obama still leading, 48 percent to McCain's 44 percent. That compares with Obama's 49 percent-42 percent lead on Friday and or 8 points lead he held over the past week.The latest numbers, based on Tuesday-through-Thursday telephone interviews of 2,779 registered voters, don't fully reflect any changes in opinion since Wednesday night's convention address from GOP vice presidential nominee Sarah Palin, or last night's address by McCain. Gallup says the new numbers have margins of error of 2 percentage points.Two weeks ago, before the two parties' back-to-back conventions, the tracking poll showed Obama and McCain in a 45 percent - 45 percent tie.

2008-09-06 04:29:16Obama says winning Pennsylvania is key to reaching White House
Washington, Sep 6 ANI: Democratic presidential nominee Barack Obama has said that he will win the White House race if he wins Pennsylvania. He was speaking to workers after touring Voit Siemens Hydro Power Generation plant."If you vote for me, I think we will win Pennsylvania. If we win Pennsylvania, we'll win the election," Obama said.The Illinois Senator is targeting rural voters in swing states such as Pennsylvania with a populist message, offering relief from pocketbook worries while accusing Republican presidential nominee John McCain of complacency about the country's hard times. The strategy is key to winning Pennsylvania and its prize of 21 electoral votes, the Washington Post reported. The state has not voted a Republican in a presidential election since backing George H.W. Bush over Michael Dukakis in 1988. But Democrat John Kerry carried it by a thin 2.5 percent margin in 2004, and McCain is campaigning aggressively in the Keystone State. With seven visits to Pennsylvania so far during the campaign, McCain signaled he is determined to put the state in play this year. Obama struggled to attract the critical working-class vote in the state primary, as his campaign was hobbled by reports that at a private fundraising event in San Francisco he complained the state's small-town voters were not supporting him because they are bitter and cling to guns and religion. He lost the primary by a nine-point margin to rival Hillary Rodham Clinton, though fared better than the more than 10-point deficit predicted by some opinion polls. ANI
