Rasmussen: Obama Ahead By 12 In South Carolina
The Obama bounce has spread to South Carolina, as well. Here's the new Rasmussen poll, compared to their last poll from only three weeks ago:
Obama 42% (+9)
Clinton 30% (-3)
Edwards 14% (-3)
Obama's share of the black vote has jumped from 50% to 58%. His leap with white voters is even great, but starting from a lower point — he has gone from 14% up to 27%.

About time! I've been waiting for a SC poll, and it is exactly what I thought it would be.
So frustrating to try to find a non-NH poll.
Anyway, I'm sure after his big win in NH the SC numbers will go even farther in his direction, especially among black voters.

After Hillary's comments about Martin Luther King come out, you can expect her share of the black vote to crater. Edwards might catch up to her soon.

Is Reverand AL Sharpton demanding an apology from Hillary for the MLK comment?

I think we should press congress to allow presidents to serve 3 terms.
Because like Hillary - Bush has got much more "experience" then any of the candidates

Wow, maybe a 20 point loss in SC will kick her ass out for good.
And yes, the MLK thing was horrible, jesus christ. She will stop at nothing to take down Obama.
