I don't fear Obama, his support in SC is predictable, anywhere the black vote makes up a sizeable proportion of the electorate, he will poll well, and probably fare better in the eventual primary. It's my fervent wish that he becomes the Rat nominee, it would be like shooting fish in a barrel, but its much more likely that Hillary will have to do some nasty things to him on her way to seizing the nomination for herself. We can hope that disgruntled African-American voters hold it against her, and vote third party in November.

Now, Giuliani is another story, I gauge his (so far) strong showing in SC to four things: 1) With McCain publically dropping like a stone, Rudy becomes the "tough on terrorism" candidate, which is popular in a pro-military state like SC, 2) The "anybody to beat Hillary" people who have been paying otherwise zero attention to the election still see Rudy as being the best person the Pubbies have got to do this, 3) Fred Thompson, a fellow Southerner, does not really show up on the radar, and won't until he declares. 4) Mitt Romney is failing to gain traction in the heavily evangelical areas of the US.

There's a lot of time, remember at this point four years ago, Joe Lieberman was considered a front runner for the Rat nomination. Things change, and they have plenty of time and reason to do so.

Good thoughts, and I don’t think Rudy will be as good on terrorism as many people think. He has a pro-ILLEGAL immigration background.

border security = national security

And yes, there is a LOT of time.
