Three-Fifths Compromise?

Jack and Jill Politics discusses the media's "three-fifths compromise" with regard to the black vote in South Carolina. Now, this is predicated on prognostications not only of how today's primary vote will turn out, but also on the media's predicted spin of that vote, but it's worth noting nevertheless that South Carolina - the largest state yet contested by the Democrats - may have to be a big win for Obama for him to reclaim his momentum going into the February 5 votes.
