It was almost like the film The Omen. Anybody who got in his way just melted away or met a nasty end.

But this time nobody could possibly blame him, though the mysterious figure of his feared spin-doctor David Axelrod lurks in the background here, and some suspect his hand in at least some of Obama's luck.

The first slice of good fortune was that the seat was empty - the incumbent suddenly retired, citing "family issues".

The former Democratic holder of the seat, prominent black politician Carol Moseley Braun, could have had it for the asking - and Obama would not have dared challenge her - but she ruled herself out.
