Know Hope - Obama Wins South Carolina

55-27 - That was the margin of victory of Obama over Hillary in South Carolina. There are a lot of good reaction pieces, and here are some of them:

Conservative/Republican Reaction:
I've Never Voted Democrat...But
Rich Lowery Reaction
Peter Wehner
The Obama Temptation
Andrew Sullivan

Democrat/Liberal Reaction:
Caroline Kennedy Endorses Obama - A President Like My Father
Sen. Ted Kennedy endorses Obama - Ted Kennedy Endorsement
Kansas Governor Kathleen Sebelius Endorses Obama -KS Governor Endorsement
Highest Ranking Latino Dem Endorsing Obama - Becerra For Obama

Obama's Victory Speech in Iowa:


I see a change in politics with Barack Obama. The Clintons are trying to pull him into the fight and label him the black candidate - it is not working. He pulled in just as many white voters in South Carolina as Hillary Clinton and his total number of votes (290,000) was bigger than McCain and Huckabee, the top two Republicans in South Carolina (250,000).....combined.

Maybe my future wife?

Dana Jacobson, host of ESPN2's morning show "First Take", was suspended because she got hammered at the celebrity roast for Mike and Mike on Jan. 11. Apparently she went to the podium drinking directly from a bottle of vodka and decided to go after Mike Golic's alma mater, Notre Dame.

This is what happens when people that aren't paid to be comedians are asked to "roast" a peer, they get nervous, get drunk, and say something that isn't that funny. In Jacobson's case, it was the following witty gem. "F*#% Notre Dame, F*#% Touchdown Jesus." She was suspended a week and is under fire from the Catholic league (there is some controversy as to whether or not she said "f#%* Jesus"). While I do not agree with how she phrased it, I have to admit, I agree 100% with her sentiments toward ND.

Here is a quote from the reporter in attendance that first wrote about her outburst:

"She was out of control," Cronick said. "When she started slugging vodka straight from the bottle, the whole crowd just groaned. Most people in the audience, including me, felt bad for (Notre Dame head coach) Charlie Weis, because he was sitting right next to the podium and she was just going off on him and Notre Dame. They got her off the stage once, but she somehow found her way back to the stage and just dug her hole deeper."

Does the Paparazzi go too far?

In this case I might argue they don't go far enough. I mean if you really are going to violate Jessica Alba's privacy so blatantly why not go the whole ten yards and hide in her shower to get the nude shot. How is this not against the law????

Bill's Peace Offering

The following really is classic.
----
Kingstree, S.C. -- Speaking to a crowd at the Williamsburg County Recreation Center, Bill Clinton just now offered an olive branch:

“If [Barack Obama] wins this nomination, I’m going to do what I can to help him become president.”

The promise comes after a week of bitter exchanges between the former president and the Obama campaign. "After all the mean things they said about me, I can’t believe I’m saying this," Clinton said.

Harden may miss Washington Game

This could be a big blow if he can't play tomorrow, especially in the on-going feud at the Daugherty household. I could see a 5-6 game losing streak if we can't win at home against UofW.
