Edwards and Clark each have one Democratic win against Kerry's seven, and both lag far behind the Massachusetts senator in delegates. But the Edwards camp portrayed the win in his native South Carolina as a blowout while noting that Clark had eked out a victory over Edwards in Oklahoma.

Former Vermont Gov. Howard Dean remains in the race, but he has yet to win a contest.

Clark, who is from Arkansas, is in direct competition with Edwards in Tennessee and Virginia. In fact, their campaign press buses were parked next to each other at a Memphis hotel this morning.

While focusing on Tennessee and Virginia, Edwards was giving less attention to two Democratic contests that hold elections Saturday but did not have a big Edwards following: Michigan and Washington State.

He planned a campaign trip to Michigan, possibly including a sleepover, but had no plans for a transcontinental trip to the Pacific Northwest.
