We don't pretend it was a decisive factor but it is notable that Barack Obama and Mike Huckabee have been engaging with journalists from the foreign, particularly, British media and Hillary Clinton didn't. In his blog, The Telegraph's Toby Harnden notes how not one British journalist - including anyone from the BBC - was permitted to attend Senator Clinton's "Victory" party in Iowa but 700 US journalists were. In contrast the Obama staff chatted freely to all reporters. On the Republican side of the aisle McCain and Huckabee have also been very open to the UK media.

What a non-story. Of that list of British media only two are not the British equivalent of Faux News.

Why would Ms. Clinton talk with the UK press? She does not think they can help her get votes so she won't waste her time. Great foreign policy. Hillary shows her true self again. Self centered and snobish.
