What's new: McCain, Huckabee 'neck and neck' in S.C. poll
Some of the campaign and political news making headlines this morning:

• The State -- McCain and Huckabee "neck and neck" in new S.C. poll: Bear in mind that polls are just snapshots and that it's actual votes that really count. But, Sen. John McCain of Arizona and former Arkansas governor Mike Huckabee "are neck and neck heading into Saturday's Republican primary in South Carolina, where the outcome could hinge on a bloc of undecided evangelical voters, according to a new McClatchy-MSNBC poll." The survey, by Mason-Dixon Polling & Research, found Republican voters dividing along these lines: McCain, 27%; Huckabee, 25%; Mitt Romney, 15%; Fred Thompson, 13%; Rep. Ron Paul of Texas, 6%; former New York mayor Rudy Giuliani, 5%; Rep. Duncan Hunter of California, 1%; undecided, 8%. Each result has a margin of error of +/- 5 percentage points.

1. Huckabee will win... I will be shocked if McCain carries SC.

3. Yeah, if there's an opening for somebody like that in SC,

I don't see any way for him to lose. This, of course, assumes the polls actually reflect a reality.

2. One neck is definitely redder than the other

You'll have to decide which on on your own.
