At any rate it's interesting to see it getting picked up somewhere.</p> Mon, 28 Jan 2008 16:52:08 -0500 Dan Ancona comment 1694 at http://www.techpresident.com http://www.techpresident.com/blog/entry/20662/yahoo_buzz_in_sc <p>We already know that Barack Obama <a href="http://www.politico.com/news/stories/0108/8113.html">won</a> South Carolina on Saturday by a huge margin.
