What if the voters of SC act as independently as the voters of NH did?
What if they decide to vote their consciences, rather than following the polls or the popular flavor of the moment? Could we see another week where the media and the pundits are wiping the egg off their faces? Is it possible? Must be scary to think such a thought?

2. Thanks for the concern. It will work out, I'm sure.

3. They should vote for whoever they want, and no one should
be interfering...with anything. That's the way I was taught it worked many moons ago, but I was disillusioned obviously.

4. Absolutely...
I think after NH, everyone should put a hold on the expectations. Whether it was voters lying, changing their minds or whatever the case was...it should tell them nothing is certain.

5. My conscience tells me to vote against triangulating Hillary windsock politics.

I think it is hilarious that you insinuate Iowa didn't act independently. Yeah, MSM never claimed Hillary was inevitable. :eyes:

6. We sure are seeing the "Expectations Game" being played for all it's worth.
Can we get the expectations for Clinton any lower? How low can they get? :shrug:

7. I'm expecting an Obama win by 20 or more points (getting over 50%) - anything less and I will be
surprised.

As to vote their consciences - whatever the vote is I am sure the voters will have voted their consciences
