19. I doubt if Obama will lose SC, but if Hillary wins, I'll get LOOSE. |

6. here's the thing: 50 % of dem primary voters are African American |
|
in SC. Obama got a huge majority of the AA vote today in NV. He'll win SC. The question is how close it will be.

13. He's not going to back out. But if (and probably when thanks to the MSM) |
|
he loses I'll be faced with a quandry that I just cannot wrap my head around. I have no idea. Obama's camp and their constant cries of racism and his Donnie McClurkin gaffe and his record and his constantly changing message say he's out. And I don't want another Clinton anywhere near the White House.
I don't know.

20. No, I don't think he is going to drop out either. And not just because |
|
the media is trying to count him out. Obama may just be getting his footing-his message may become clearer and when people consider what exactly the Clinton's will bring with them to the White House if they get the nomination, you just can't know for sure how things will play out right now. This is a tough race always ways around.

I think Hillary will keep it close in South Carolina, if she spends all of next week there. She may even win. If she moves on to Super Tuesday states, like California, then Obama will win South Carolina.

4. considering that Hillary was only six weeks ago plus twenty in Nevada |
|
Obama did well. He will win in South Carolina, I believe, in one week and then it will be 2-2. The nomination is up for grabs still. I will say this--whoever wins California will probably be the nominee.

9. The question is (and it's sincere) who has the stranglehold on |
|
the state machinery? I ask because I am thinking there are quite a few DU'ers from that state who might comment.
We just saw a caucus where Harry Reid had a lot of influence, and he backed the DLC candidate.
Who has the influence in South Carolina Reid has in Nevada? And what do we know about the Secretary of State?

14. Well hell if you think it will won or lost on Super Tuesday then |
|
you better be prepared for HRC to win 13 plus states that day, and if I read you right then Obama and edwards should just drop the hell out. Is that what you are saying?

15. I think Obama and JE may fight it out for SC |
|
But this race won't be decided before Super Tuesday, that's for sure.

17. Sure he is very much ahead there right now . |
|
And, if we all remember not so very long ago, the media were counting Hillary out. Obama can revamp a little and come back even stronger. He made it closer than the media thought he would several weeks ago.

22. I agree - proportional awarding of delegates forces it - at least to 3/4/08 (Ohio) |
