John Edwards, former US senator and presidential candidate, met with Spain’s Socialist Prime Minister Jose Luis Rodriguez Zapatero on June 6. According to Spanish daily “El País”, Zapatero referred to the recent contentious Democratic party primaries between Senator Barack Obama and Senator Hillary Clinton as “exciting”.

For his part, according to the Spanish journal, Edwards said that Senator Clinton had ruled her campaign more with the “head” rather than the “heart.” Edwards added that the upcoming contest between Obama and Republican Senator John McCain will be difficult.

Martin Barillas is a former US diplomat, who also worked as a democracy advocate and election observer in Latin America.
