Pretty happy about tonight’s results in South Carolina…

I sure hope this can carry into Florida and that we’re not seeing just a “last gasp” as some would have it. The BlogFather illustrates the big problem with that for OB:

Everyone would bet that the Obama campaign has already made up its mind, and will ignore Florida, like he did Michigan. I don’t really see how that’s a winning strategy for Obama. Florida is different, first, because Obama is on the ballot in Florida, and second, because its Florida. Obama has won SC by a 20 percent plus blowout, but Clinton will be able to reverse that claim in FL. And what matters more, FL or SC? In the first big state to have a primary, a week ahead of Feb 5th, Clinton will be seen as victor over Obama.

The idea that he could skip Florida is a stretch, and I think Jerome’s right — given Clinton’s lead down there, I don’t see how he could keep away from the state, even if it’s supposed to be out of play. Clinton wins the thing and it’s a big news story, even if the vagaries of the DNC made Florida verboten to Democrats
