COLUMBIA, South Carolina (CNN) — Here's a quick look at what's making political news in South Carolina this morning: The Los Angeles Times takes a turn looking into the battle for black voters, with this quote from Columbia hair salon owner Carmen Thomas just about summing it up: "I want to vote for Barack Obama because he's a brother, and I would love to see him in office and I am sure he can do the job. But I just don't know if everybody else feels like I do, and I don't want to throw away my vote. I am praying for both of them to be on the same ticket." South Carolina GOP chairman Katon Dawson declares Republicans won't give up on the black vote, despite what Sen. Hillary Clinton says. The State looks at the fine line Obama must walk regarding his race. There are three Rudy Giuliani fundraising house parties in South Carolina tonight. Here's one in West Columbia. Former Massachusettes governor Mitt Romney won't be in South Carolina this weekend after all. Who's behind the anti-"amnesty" signs in the Upstate? There are also several in Columbia on Assembly Street. – CNN South Carolina Producer Peter Hamby Filed under: Barack Obama • Extra • Hillary Clinton • Mitt Romney • South Carolina |
