2. Whites too? So much for the "Obama the black candidate" meme...
Hillary is about to get STEAMROLLED!

8. Yes, race-baiting proved remarkably successful for Obama.
And pinning it on his victim? That's real skill.

11. umm, because this will be trumpeted from coast to coast over and over and
has the potential to put a big dent in that lead? Pretty obvious. I'm not saying he'll win by big margins, it's too early to come to any conclusions, but if he does, and if he exceeds expectations, it'll make a difference on 2/5- not matter what happens in FL.

21. no, because of demographics Obama was expected to win SC
Jesse Jackson won here twice, even Al Sharpton did reasonably well in 04, and he's a loon

23. Guess what? Jesse Jackson has nothing to do with this.
Obama won Iowa. He was NOT expected to win SC as recently as a month ago. Furthermore if you're trying the racist shit about Obama only winning the black vote, forget it. That's an old tired meme that's disproved by his winning Iowa, doing well in NH and NV and winning a quarter of the white vote in SC with 3 candidates.

Oh, and Jackson won my state of Vermont- whitest state in the Union and so will Obama. we don't really care much for the Clintons in the most liberal state in the country.

Have a tolerable night.

6. That is an amazing statistic that needs to be HEARD.
This isn't just a white vs. black election and that stat proves it.

16. but nowhere did that 68% say they did not vote for HRC....
as i said earlier we will see if the media hookwinked americans again by saying obama would only get about 10% of the white folk...why is that important? what story would you rather see in the headlines on sunday morning....obama wins with huge black vote in south carolina or obama wins with bigger white vote.....


This 10% number was drawn out of the air and it would give the media a story other then race and black voters....always protecting their favorite obama......
