White folks are 64% of the South Carolina population but made up 96% of the GOP primary. That doesn't seem sustainable.
Non-whites are also a large majority in the Democratic primaries, though nowhere near 96%. It might be between 53 - 60% next Saturday depending on how many whites opted to vote in the GOP primary first instead of the Democratic one a week later (and it seems to be a lot).

Is MSNBC seriously looping coverage already?

My list of people who suck:
Ralston
Cruz
Heilemann
Halperin
Politico editorial staff
Joe Scarborough
NBC reporters embedded in Democratic campaigns

Regardless of this being a great night, the looming shadow of horribly racist rhetoric from certain circles when the black vote wallops Bernie in SC and beyond is not a pleasant feeling.

Prop 8 reactions will pale in comparison.

I know this is gonna happen and I'm already dreading it.

I'd move Morning Joe and the Politico editorial staff up a few spaces. Other than that, it's a good list.

How bad does Lindsey Graham look for jumping on a burning ship. Not the first time he's done that (see: Iraq).

Blanche looks the same as he always did. The only difference between him and the rest of the Golden Girls is that his ship sunk first and the rest of them have yet to realize they've got holes in their hulls.
 
Non-whites are also a large majority in the Democratic primaries, though nowhere near 96%. It might be between 53 - 60% next Saturday depending on how many whites opted to vote in the GOP primary first instead of the Democratic one a week later (and it seems to be a lot).

I had no idea that the SC Dems were that heavily minority, though it makes sense. It feels like the national GOP is becoming like California in the late 90's. Extremist policies are pushing out moderating influences so more extreme candidates keep drawing attraction. Not sure how they change that.

I was a Sanders Supporter for quite sometime. But as time moved on, I came back. I am fully behind THE QUEEN and Hilgaf now. I'm legit happy about this now, and a Fantastic and necessary win today.

To our Queen!

And well done Bernie and his team. They should be proud of the campaign they won. They made up a ton of ground and forced Hillary to work for the win. Well done.

Democrats are heavily minority all across the Deep South. South Carolina and Georgia still have a decently sized white Dem base(like around 25%- 35%) but the Democratic Party in Mississippi and Alabama might as well be called the Black Party.
 
Jeb dropping is bad, because it puts pressure on Kasich to drop, next. Granted, he's only got to make it three more weeks until Ohio, which will bleed Rubio just enough in just enough primaries, but if Kasich is gone, and if the debates continue to be designed around giving Rubio a lot of shine, Rubio may have just enough momentum to start overtaking Trump before Trump has made it mathematically impossible for anybody else to win.

I wonder if Romney regrets not giving it one last shot.

Guys, I ventured into OT and I read an Inuhanyou post where he said that Clinton's Wall Street plan is to tell them to "stop it".
