CNN

Wow, CNN is becoming sensible by not attaching stupid after it's the economy.

RON PAUL IS AN EXPERT ON THE ECONOMY.
"GRACE"

Wow CNN is telling us why people voted today, it was about the economy. Really...you think!

Obama!

And is affects everyone no matter the race,gender or Preferred differences.

They are either lying or ignorant. If the economy were truly the top issue, they would vote for Edwards.

How can you seperate the economy from the war in Iraq ?? Since we are spending TRILLIONS of dollars in Iraq, isn't the economy tied to this ridiculous occupation of the Iraqi people ??

BTW... who was the ONLY candidate to oppose the war in Iraq from the beginning ?? not when it was politically convenient . that candidate looks very smart right now considering the mess that iraq is and has always been.

I am so tired of the useless filth being hurled back and forth between the candidates. I am an independent voter, and I would like to hear something that will actually benefit this nation and its people. I thought I was watching political debates and news. Insead I am watching the Jerry Springer show or some pathetic soap opera. I will always remember how these people and their representatives conducted themselves. I am sad and embarressed for our country. Shame on all of them.

"Considerably more of South Carolina’s Democrats are concerned about the economy than their New Hampshire counterparts. While it was the top issue in New Hampshire as well, only 38 percent of voters there said it was most important."

Wooboy. No professional pollsters in the house at CNN apparently. Heard of context? Polls have them. Two weeks ago there wasn't nearly the talk about recession pounding viewers every moment on the news. Yessss, that effects people's response to polls. Really.

wow – iraq not important anymore. guess we're wining. thanks to those fightin dems! good going guys. so now, its the economy. hmm. lets hope they keep their streak alive and we have 3% growth in 08. thats where i'd put my money.

We need another artificial boom such as the dotcoms or the housing market. Both bubbles were supported by artificial money ie VC funding for dotcoms or subprime loans and loose lending and appraising guidelines for the housing bubble.

Now Bill Clinton has compared Barack Obama winning SC to Jesse Jackson carrying the state in primaries from the 80's. Anyone still believe the Clintons are not injecting race?

I also hear that the Clintons made automatic calls to people's homes attacking John Edwards last night. These people will likely win but it is and will be nasty.

Oh how CNN was hoping the issues would be different between the major races of South Carolina. My guess is that a post about race in South Carolina is minutes away because, you know, we all care about that so much.

I hope everyone doesn't forget about Iraq. Yes, I'm concerned about the economy, healthcare and global economics. However, Iraq made so many of us pay attention to what is happening inside government in this country. Therefore, I am more concerned about the way that Senator Clinton and President Clinton have reconstructed the campaign around race and away from the above mentioned issues. If this continues and Senator Clinton wins the Democratic nomination for President, my entire family have vowed to vote Republican for the first time in our history in this country. We refuse to allow the Clintons to frame how the future of this country will be decided. So bring on McCain or Romney because they have our votes.

If Obama wins in South Carolina, will people say that he is strong on the economy?

Let us all hope so.

STOP HILLARY!!!!!!!!!!!

The foreign policy and the economy is the same thing. Unreal how to media pundits try to divide and conquer

Interesting that our country views money (economy) as more important than freedom and national security (iraq).

Maybe Romney WILL end up in office now that he's fooled so many people into believing that he knows what he's talking about.

I am also a successful entrepreneuer and have helped several of the Fortune 500, just because you know economic basics and have a successful business does not mean you can deliver on change in a place (Washington) you don't understand.

How can you be an 'expert' at something about which you know only the basics?

I find it strange that people completely separate Economy from War as if they are totally unrelated, while the reality is that this useless Iraq war is the biggest gash in our economic body.

I dont blame Clinton nor Obama for the race issue if you watch all the networks they are the one that keeps brining it up..shame on you, your doing the damage to the country to try to get a story!!!

Why is the media acting like this election is a big mystery? Exit polls clearly show that the right man is going to win, Senator Barack Obama. But the media is making it sound like a huge mystery. What is with all the hype? Just call it for Barack Obama and lets move on. Barack Obama is going to win every state in the South plus a lot in the North and then he is going to win the nomination and the presidency.

BARACK OBAMA 2008 and beyond!
