Whether waxing or waning, McCain has consistently maintained his lead -why isn't CNN or some other news network calling this race for him already? 

Because the networks do not yet have 99.5% confidence that he won. When/if they do, they will.

I've asked this question about Michigan and Nevada, but what is the delegate distribution for the South Carolina GOP?

They keep saying that a lot of the upstate is still out, and that is favoring huckabee. with about an 8,000 vote difference, he can still catch up and make it a close race. charleston is almost done reporting, and we are mccain's biggest base.

I wonder who's going to win here? Rudy Giuliani Tongue? Like ClintonOklahoma, I am calling South Carolina for Senator John Sidney McCain the III.

McCain should have won South Carolina some 8 years ago. If only he had and right now we could be talking about Former Governor George W. Bush doing well in South Carolina or his Vice President Tom Ridge.

Hmm, it's a sad and disheartening reality, but you're probably right. This kind of lead doesn't disappear unless Aaron Sorkin is tabulating the ballots. McCain's win here, worst of all, probably exorcises the demons of 2000, meaning he can campaign without the chip on his shoulder of being 'the guy who lost to Bush in 2000'.

He might win Florida, but that's as much in the air as it ever was. Beyond that isn't anyone's game, though I somehow think that Huckabee and Romney might have enough in them to derail the momentum later on. God willing.

It's way too premature to call it for either of these guys. We've got quite a ways to go.

Ok, either I'm really bad at math or the CNN people are getting a bit loopy. McCain's lead on Huckabee INCREASED from when it was 35/30 . .. now it's 33/30? This makes no sense. Maybe some of McCain's delegates are getting raptured or something.

Although the % hasn't changed, McCain is now up 8,200 votes.

You can increase your lead in raw numbers while the percentage gap decreases. That's just true mathematically.
