Check out how they are chalked up here: Russia is becoming a super power again.

"Medvedev did raise eyebrows recently with his comment that he could work with any U.S. president who didn't have "semi-senile" views. He did not elaborate or name the president or presidential candidates to whom he was referring.

Putin's confrontations with the West _ including allegations that Western organizations were trying to foment revolution and parallels he seemed to draw between the United States and Nazi Germany _ underline the new boldness that Russia feels as its economy soars.

The new president's major domestic tasks will center on the economy. Russia got rich from skyrocketing world oil prices, but its economy is hugely dependent on natural resources and needs to diversify to solidify long-term prosperity. Inflation _ more than 11 percent last year _ is undermining the nascent middle class.

Medvedev, meanwhile, has identified corruption as a key problem.

Overall, the race has prompted little excitement. State-controlled television news programs have given almost no coverage to the three other candidates.

Medvedev has not formally campaigned, but spent the campaign period traveling across Russia, visiting farms and industrial enterprises, meeting with young people at sporting events and the elderly at nursing homes. Those trips have dominated television newscasts in recent weeks"
