It’s No Longer ‘Obama the Superstar’, Says Berliner Zeitung

BERLINER ZEITUNG: "After Pennsylvania, Obama's magic is gone. Obama is now just a politician like any other. He bombarded his rival with negative ads and broke his promises to conduct a civil campaign. Naturally Clinton drove him to it with her own attacks -- but that was predictable. Nobody is pulling any punches in the race any more."

"But Obama also lost his magic because he failed to convince voters when it came to concrete issues. The majority of voters in Pennsylvania want a president who can improve their economic situation and they clearly don't believe Obama can do that. They do not see any practical solutions in his abstract promises of change. … This is not the end of Obama, but it is the end of Obama the superstar." [Source: SpiegelOnline International]
