McCain didn't win SC - Thompson effectively gifted it to him by splitting the conservative vote.
That said, his win does push up his prospects in Florida, and with a win in Florida, he'll pick up in the north-east (the latest polls I've seen have him ahead in Pennsylvania and New Jersey and trailing Giuliani by just three points in NY). If Giuliani bows out, McCain will pick up his vote.
I guess what I'm suggesting is it doesn't matter how or why McCain won South Carolina - the fact that he won it still gives him delegates at Convention and still gives him momentum in the primaries still to come.
