总结：

Senator Obama and his supporters are looking over the results here in South Carolina and honing their strategy for the upcoming primaries. In some ways South Carolina was unique, especially in terms of the role played by black voters. Much of Obama's overwhelming margin of success was owed to black voters who made up about half (of) the overall turnout.

Obama参议员和他的支持者正在南卡罗来纳州察看投票结果，并为接下来的初选制定策略。从某些方面来说，南卡罗来纳州有点特殊，因为黑人选民起到了特殊的作用。Obama所取得的压倒性胜利很大部分要归功于黑人选民，他们的选票占Obama所有得票的一半以上。

But by winning a quarter of the white vote, Obama showed he could draw votes across racial lines even in a deep South state. In his victory speech, Obama rejected the idea that his campaign was about race or any other divisive issue.

但即使在美国南部偏僻地区，Obama还赢得了四分之一白人选民的投票，这显示了Obama也能够跨过种族界线获得支持。在他获胜演讲中，Obama否认了有人说他的竞选是有关种族或其他分裂意图的观点。

"This election is about the past versus the furture."

“这是一场过去与未来进行较量的选举。”

His words made clear that Obama sees himself as the champion of the future and his chief opponent, Senator Hillary Clinton and her husband, former President Bill Clinton, as representatives of a past that many young people, in particular, would like to leave behind.

他的话很明确地表明，他认为自己是未来的胜利者，而他的主要对手——Hillary Clinton参议员和她的丈夫（前总统Bill Clinton）则是过去的象征，他们将被很多人，特别是年轻人遗忘。

Obama won 50% of the vote among white people 18 to 29 years of age in South Carolina. He also scored well among middle-income voters with a college education.

在南卡罗来纳州，Obama在18至29岁的年轻白人中获得了50%的选票，另外，他在接受过大学教育且中等收入的选民中的得票情况也很好。
