SC: PPP: Clinton trails all, Carson best, Kasich worst

[pbrower2a]

With the possible exception of Carson, all Republicans win South Carolina by margins too close to have a real chance nationwide. If the 2008 and 2012 elections indicate anything, it is that the Republican nominee must win South Carolina by at least 12% to have a real chance of winning  the  Presidency.

...PPP does a national poll this week, so our best hope for a significant and credible poll of states is by Quinnipiac.

Let's stop this juvenile distortion of names. Maybe it is OK if there is something relevant... but so far as I can tell, Governor Kasich has nothing to do with the KKK. OK, Karl Rove really is a rogue (thus "Karl Rogue") and David Duke really was a Klan leader and still believes much the same stuff (thus "David DuKKKe").

By so distorting a name you invite an inexcusable smear such as "Hitlery" which I have seen.

South Carolina, like Georgia is heavily polarized on racial identity at the polls. South Carolina goes to the Democrat only in a landslide which shows that a significant part of the Southern white electorate has gone back to voting Democratic.  Any significant Democratic poaching of Southern white voters flips some states that haven't gone for any Democratic nominee since the 1990s.

If Hillary Clinton is winning South Carolina, she is likely winning Texas as well.

No, I am not calling a 2016 landslide for Democrats. There is more to the Democratic losses in the Mountain and Deep South than Barack Obama.
