From a reader:
Have you forgotten this is South Carolina we’re talking about? I would argue that a black man winning 25% of the white vote in good ol’ SC is HUGE.
I agree — it’s huge that 75 percent of white South Carolina Democrats voted against the hands-down winner who thrashed all comers in their state tonight.
The main point is that this vote is something of an anomaly — one more reason not to count Hillary out.
Then again, as Rich points out, a 28-point loss is pretty devastating no matter how it breaks down. Obama made a huge statement tonight and far exceeded all expectations.
