She is a Sihk?  Wow, really good job keeping that on the down-low.

Her family is Sikh, and she was raised Sikh, but she goes to both Sikh and Methodist religious services. Likewise, she had a Methodist wedding *and* a Sikh wedding.

Remember, when she was running for governor in 2010, a state GOP lawmaker called her a "raghead". (Incidentally, that same guy recently endorsed Trump.)

Well, Obama carried SC during the SC primary in 2008

Yeah a democratic primary.  30% of the state is black.  Blacks overwhelmingly vote democratic while democrats are less then half of south carolina.  So a democratic primary in south carolina is overwhelmingly black, making it a very, very different electorate from a republican primary in that state.

What mainiac said. According to the figures I can find, SC Democratic voters are 60% black.




@Playergamer: You'd think if that was the case, the campaign would have released some kind of statement saying that. They haven't.

This is a great collection of awkward Jeb Bush moments.

am volunteering for his campaign, etc.

People dont do that enough.  Good for you.

There's no meaningful contribution to the oil supply from animal bodies. An arbitrarily high amount of it is the global plant explosion of the Carboniferous Era, which contained species with much higher carbon contents than anything alive today.

This was my understanding, yeah. An insignificant, but nonzero, contribution.

Almost all of the animal matter that exists in there would be from insects and other invertebrates however. Large animals would only be a tiny fraction of that tiny fraction of the mass.

I just want Jeb to be happy with his turtles, he didn't want this

Somehow he thinks building a wall would solve the problem. Since the question will definetly come up in the debate tonight, lets see if he uses the same dumb answer.

Hm, Carson has said that he's ready and willing to stay in through to the convention. http://www.cnn.com/2016/02/06/politics/republican-debate-what-to-watch/index.html

Well, the drugs are all coming from south of the border, right? Too bad Sinaloa is so great at building tunnels.

[Loud Whispers]

Build walls in their tunnels, walls everywhere

New Hampshire sounds fun.

[sluissa]

Speaking of walls, candidates aren't allowed to se each other before the debate starts?

DEBATE TONIGHT.

Good evening ladies and gentlemen, we bring you this piece of LIVE political action from New Hampshire! Look out for the following:

• Trump eager to prove himself after a ego-crushing loss to Cruz.]
• Rubio tries to save himself from the hunger of the other establishment candidates, each eager to win in New Hampshire and breathe life back into their campaign.
• Bush and Kasich fight for the right to be more New Hampshire.
• Cruz looking to protect his lead, watching for attacks from Trump and possibly Rubio.

Depends on the debate and who's hosting I guess. They do mingle around with each other while waiting.

Carson is probably itching to get some attacks in on Cruz.

Pre-debate show i saw suggested they were keeping them from even passing in the halls

[smjjames]

Like I said, probably depends on whoever is hosting.

[Frumple]

Y'know, I just realized I don't passively recognize New Hampshire as the name of a state. For something so important to the primary process, it sure feels like it's... not. Like, not a thing at all. Maybe a city or small town? But a whole state... not so much.

I think it's because of the New prefix. New York gets away with it because the city is larger in size/population than some countries (It's ~2 New Zealands, ferex. Also ~6-7 new hampshires >_>), but NH... what's even in NH?
