Obama's natural enemy

Key quote:  "Except the Obama of 2008 faces an obstacle the Clinton of 1992 never had to endure. He is up against a wholly novel phenomenon in US politics: the double-headed presidential candidate. All week in South Carolina he has done battle with not just his main opponent, but that opponent's spouse, the pair commanding as much media attention as if both their names were on the ballot. What's more - and this is a problem Bill Clinton never faced - one of those two adversaries is the most effective campaigner in modern political history: one William Jefferson Clinton."
