Barack Obama Wins In South Carolina — by Catherine Morgan (cross-posted at Care2 Election Blog and at The Political Voices of Women)

In a not so big surprise, Barack Obama wins the South Carolina primary. What was a surprise though, was the large margin that he won by.

With 99 percent of the electoral precincts reporting, Mr. Obama had 55 percent of the vote, Mrs. Clinton had 27 percent, and Mr. Edwards had 18 percent. — The New York Times

I hope the results of this primary has shown the Clinton campaign, that using Bill Clinton to serve as Hillary’s attack dog, is not the way to go. Ultimately, the only candidates that will benefit from this type of behavior, are the Republicans. And, even though John Edwards didn’t do so great in South Carolina today…He was the only voice of maturity and reason this entire week.

With that said…Barack Obama delivered another “slam-dunk” victory speech tonight. This is a man that can really inspire and empower a crowd. If you missed this speech, it is definitely worth watching…
