Clinton leads with old white people in SC

From an analysis of the latest polls (although... who can tell with them after NH) from SC:

"In the Democratic race, Obama bests Clinton among men (42%-27%), women (39%-34%), African Americans (56%-25%), and voters under 50 (47%-21%). Clinton leads Obama among whites (39%-20%) and those over 50 (39%-35%). In fact, it's worth noting, Obama's third among whites, at 20% with John Edwards garnering 28% of the white vote, 11 points behind Clinton. Edwards is virtually shut out among African-Americans, receiving less than the poll's 5% margin of error."

So, Obama has men, women, young people, and African-Americans; Clinton has whites and old people.

I wish Washington were more important in the primary voting process.
