And Another Victory

Obama wins the South Carolina Primary!!!!!!!!
Obama 55%
Hillary 27%
Edwards 18%
SC had record turnouts and Obama won more votes than were cast in the 04 primary. He pulled support from all demographics which goes to show that he has broad appeal. We now have both Barack and Hillary with 2 wins each and 10 days until Super Tuesday. This won't be decided on Feb 5th either and I believe it might go until the convention.
Iwas feeling a little bit bummed after the last 2 primaries but tonight has given me hope that we might have a democratic candidate that will not rehash the same old fights over the 60s. Its time for the Baby Boomers to step aside and let a new generation take over.
I am not happy with Bill Clinton these days and I am afraid that he will continue to divide the party. He is under the delusion that he can tear it apart but in the end bring us all together with a big giant hug. I don't see it happening and he risks his legacy as well as a victory in November.
Way To Go Obama, Lets Keep It Going.
Update: Rumors are swirling around the internet regarding Edwards and Attorney General. It seems like the Obama people are putting out feelers to John that if Obama wins, he could get the AG post. With the convention most likely in a deadlock, those additional Edwards delegates could push Obama over the top.

I think Obama does represent a change from all of that. With the Kennedy endorsement, hopefully he'll draw some party and super delegate endorsement which will help him next tuesday.
