1. I was going to congratulate you on the coming win.

But the actual numbers are not that encouraging for the other races.

But you can relax because South Carolina is in the bag.

2. The majority of that one was done before the debate.

I hope we'll see a post-debate poll before the vote.

"...In the one night of polling conducted after the debate, Edwards, a former North Carolina senator who won the South Carolina primary during his failed presidential bid in 2000, appeared to have made some slight gains, Zogby said.

"The question is, who does Edwards help and hurt? What impact does he have?" Zogby said.

He said the race in South Carolina still showed some fluidity. About 14 percent of voters in the state are undecided, and about 20 percent of voters backing a candidate say they could still change their mind..."

4. Wow, that's nearly 20 points!

I am certain Barack will take South Carolina - just don't know if it will be by that much. GOTV is going to be critical.

Then what? Florida is next (but doesn't count) and then Super Tuesday? I know I'm being lazy and could look it up myself - just wondered if anyone knew the schedule off the top of their head.

6. At this point, any win by Obama by less than 15% will be a victory for Hillary, momentum-wise. /nt

8. Nah. Not really.

Don't play the expectations game. A win is a win.

5. According to article

it's a broad based lead. Obama leads among men, women, liberals, moderates, conservatives, and among all age groups except very old 70 and above where Clinton edges Obama. According to Zogby Edwards leads among Republican voters voting in the Dem primary.

7. Edwards supporters Good news in the day after the debate numbers according to Zogby

This is a three day running total, but on Tuesday polling--the day after the debate--here are the numbers:

Obama: 39%
Clinton: 22%
Edwards: 18%

Go Edwards! maybe you can come in second that would give his campaign some momentum.
