The larger question is around the nation will this intense back and forth or bickering cause irreparable harm or damage leading african americans to abandon the clintons if she secures the nomination. Excellent question and quite frankly i would go beyond the poll data you cited and point out that even the controversy prior to last mondays myrtle beach exchange in terms of responding to the statements by president clinton and senator clinton expecially statements by several of obamas surrogates particularly as we move toward the south carolina democratic primary with its high percentage of african american voters as well as the fact that this is a must win state for obama one is left with this notion that he might end up winning the state but be labeled as the black candidate. I fully expect unless something of earth shattering proportions take place that south carolina will remain in the republican column in november the south is the base of the republican party. African americans have not only been loyal supporters of the democrats some would say to a fault. Clinton given the time shes spent in california and nevada and the black hispanic split in the latter going into feb. So regardless of how that might unfold south carolina is not expected to go democratic in november.
