Surely in South Carolina

Senator Obama took the political high ground, speaking on what's known as 'King Sunday' at MLK's home church in Atlanta yesterday. His speech, ringing with the same churchly cadence that Dr. King used so well, implored everyone to stop "the divisions, the stereotypes, the scape-goating, the ease with which we blame the plight of ourselves on others, all of that distracts us from the common challenges we face: war and poverty; inequality and injustice."
Senator Clinton took second place by speaking at the Abyssinian Baptist Church in Harlem, where she 'me, too'd' by referring to her early 'conversion' through listening to Dr. King speak: "It was a transforming experience for me," Clinton said.
They're both putting a lot of hopes on South Carolina.
This, after Clinton won in Nevada, though Obama got 83 percent of the black voters there (who were only 15% of the total, of course).
Even at her own event, however, Clinton had problems: "As dozens of Obama supporters shouted "Harlem for Obama," Clinton's supporters tried to drown them out by shouting "Hil-la-ry!"

Rico says he hopes Obama whips her fat white ass in South Carolina. (Now there's some prejudiced imagery...)
