Hillary returns to SC..
this will ruin all the "Hill-blows-off-SC" threads..
or maybe not..facts don't seem to get in the way for some..


"Back to Carolina: After spending the past couple of days in February 5 states, Clinton returns to South Carolina, giving a speech later this morning on the economy in Greenville. Lost in the furious back-and-forths overs Reagan, Rezko, and the rest of Monday’s debate was Clinton’s decision to bypass the state for two days -- and in the process, concede (ever so slightly) the first contest with a sizable African-American population. Even in those days when it looked like she might lose New Hampshire, and thus needed to focus on February 5, few thought she’d skip South Carolina due to the importance of the African-American vote in a general election. Of course, she’s back in the state, and Bill picked up the slack for her while she was gone. But ask yourself this: How would Iowans have received the news that three precious days before the caucuses, a candidate had decided to campaign in New Hampshire instead"?

7. uh. no. Here's exactly what he said:
"After the debate, she flew out and she's been gone and she won't be back until I don't know — later in the week or until primary day,"

So unless time has stood still, today is "later in the week"...

You have some yolk in your eyebrow. would you like a towel? :rofl:

6. I guess Edwards calling her on it started to get to her and/or her advisers.
But again, as a SC resident, I'd rather she never come back to this state.

11. I didn't read that and I actually thought she was
conceding the state, luckily I got it wrong and it's absolutely clear that she's going to fight for every single vote. :-)
