  Answer:-
• Question:-Why did John McCain survive 5 1/2 years as a prisoner of war, but gave up after the South Carolina primary?
  Every time I hear John McCain say "Stand up and fight !", I have to wince.
  
  The reason why I have to wince is because I still find it hard to believe how
  easily he gave up in the 2000 Republican presidential primary.
  
  He sure didn't "stand up and fight" back then !
  
  He endured all of that abuse for 5 1/2 years in Vietnam, but gave up after losing in the South Carolina Primary as a result of ugly rumors circulated by Karl Rove in the Bush campaign.
  
  Answer:-
• Question:-Who won the south carolina primary?
  didn't they say the results would be in @ 730?
  WHAT? NOOOOOOO:(
  does anyone know where Ron Paul placed?
  
  Answer:-Newt Gingrich, I'm certain.
  
  Edit: I think Ron Paul and Rick Santorum are fighting for 3rd place. Keep in mind that these results are based on early exit polls...

  The Democratic Party apparatus in the state of South Carolina has begun raising serious concerns that the shocking victory of Alvin Greene in the Senate Democratic primary this Tuesday may have been the result of nefarious meddling.
  
  Rep. James Clyburn (D-S.C.) the senior black lawmaker in the state, made the case in various interviews on Thursday. State Party Chair Carol Fowler echoed the same point, while also calling on Greene to leave the race because of recent revelations of prior felony charges.
  
  But for all the hints of shenanigans -- and Greene's election is, if anything, truly bizarre -- the national party infrastructure wants nothing more than to sweep the issue under the rug.
  
  "The committee looks at the entire electoral map and decides where it will be spending its best time and resources," Democratic Senate Campaign Committee Chair Robert Menendez (D-N.J.) said on Thursday in a briefing for reporters. "And I have to be honest with you that South Carolina is not a place that I am focused on.
  john gibson............."because he got the most votes,would be the reason why"
  
  Yes. But that means people just picked somebody without knowing who it was.
  tyler...............Yes it appears he did. It's just so odd.
  
  Answer:-I would just like to know how a guy with no job and living at home with his parents was able to get $10,000 to file with the state to be on the ballot.
• Question:-Why did Democrats in South Carolina wait until after the primary losses to complain about candidates?
  " I saw the patterns in this. I know a Democratic pattern, I know a Republican pattern, and I saw in the Democratic primary, elephant dung all over the place. So I knew something was wrong in that primary. And this result tells us that." according to James Clyburn. So why didn't a single Democrat object to Greene's candidacy prior to election day? Even Obama is complaining after the fact with Axelrod saying that "South Carolina deserves a strong Democratic candidate". It seams obvious that the people of South Carolina don't want the long term politicians at all since most were defeated. So is it really a surprise that an unknown won?
  Bob: Many accusations have been made but not one shred of evidence has been shown as proof of any of the accusations. The only thing the Democrats have is to say (paraphrase) " There must be something wrong because it is strange."
  Sorry I mis-spoke like Obama does so often. I meant that they were either defeated or had much tougher races than they had in the past.
  
  Answer:-Identifying it as a "primary loss" is incorrect.
  
  Prior to election day Alvin Greene was not known. He was unemployed, living with his father, facing felony charges and not at all active in the Democratic party in South Carolina. It's a primary where Democrats invested little because of a "certain" win by DeMint in November.
  
  Still, it says something about the number of uncontested races in this country given that it is an "anti incumbency" year.
  
  I think that you need to go back and check your facts concerning "most were defeated". Of 84 incumbents running in the elections last Tuesday, only two were defeated - one of those being a regular scoundrel (under many investigations - gov of Nevada).
• Question:-If Huckabee couldn't win in South Carolina or Florida what makes Santorum think he can?
  Santorum couldn't even win in Iowa which has the largest evangelical vote of any primary or caucus.

  McCain won both of those states. So much for Romney not being able to win in the South. LOL
  
  Answer:-Right now, Santorum is the "Not Romney" candidate of the week. Let's see what he looks like after Romney starts flinging dirt all over him, like he did to Newt and Cain.
