Obama finishes strong second in Nevada

Sen. Barack Obama beat expectations, unless you consider a single poll last week, and will probably come in about 5 percentage points behind Hillary Clinton in Nevada.

Hillary was strongly supported by the Democratic establishment. It is one of her strongest states next to New York.

If Barack wins South Carolina, I think he will win the nomination. I've been saying since April 2007 that SC and the South is the key to an Obama victory and I still think this is the case:
