Πολλά μπορεί να πει κανείς για τις αμερικανικές εκλογές, αν και, μέσα σ' όλα τα δικά μας, πού να προλάβεις να δεις τι καίει τον μέσο Αμερικανό. Όταν βρίσκεις την ώρα να ασχοληθείς και ανακαλύπτεις τι απασχολεί κάποιους Αμερικανούς, καταριέσαι την ώρα και τη στιγμή που ασχολήθηκες.

Analysis
Mark Mardell, North America editor
In South Carolina, as in Iowa and New Hampshire, voters are finding it hard to pick one anti-Mitt, conservative candidate to get behind.
The opinion polls suggest that Newt Gingrich is the obvious choice. But he worries some. It's not that he is a recent convert to Roman Catholicism that's the trouble.
It is that he is only a fairly recent convert to uxorious faithfulness. He's on his third marriage. But perhaps it is not quite so bad for him as it could be.
Central to the evangelical message is that we are all in need of forgiveness. The possibility of redemption is at the heart of the faith. Lucky old Newt.
The man in danger is Mitt. He didn't win in Iowa. If he doesn't win here he will have lost his unique selling point: that he feels like a winner. In politics, if an electorate loses faith in a front-runner there is no redemption, not even in the Bible Belt.
