Well Obama won, and I could have told you that. The majority of democrats in SC are indeed African Americans, and its not hard to believe that African Americans would want to be a part of the campaign for the first black president in history.

McCain came as a surprise on the republican side. It wasn't until his last minute campaigning that he was able to pull of a narrow victory over Mike Huckabee.

I actually saw Hillary Clinton and McCain in person if that means anything. Hillary was a lot uglier in person:D.

Oh and the Mitt Romney campaign has been very lazy in taking down their campaign signs. I am still driving past Mitt Romney signs a good week or 2 after the republican primary.
