South Carolina: Barack Clobbers Hillary

In a 55 to 27 percent rout, Barack Obama defeated Hillary Clinton in the South Carolina democrat primary race. Native-son John Edwards came in third.

Next up: Florida primary for republican candidates on Tuesday. Delegate votes for democrats don't count because of national democrat party rules.

And then "Super Tuesday" on February 5, where primaries or caucuses will take place in 22 states.
