Will Obama Take Florida?

Barack Obama's win in South Carolina appears to have brought his campaign back to life- not that it was on life support in the first place. Given the attacks based on race, where he and opponent Hillary Clinton were fighting tooth and nail for the African-American vote, new life has been breathed into the Illinois senator.

Senator Ted Kennedy has endorsed Obama.

So, the question now is, can he take Florida- or will Clinton take it?

Here's the latest standings:

DEMOCRATIC: Magic number 2,025 (win-loss, percentage, number of delegates):
Clinton 3-2, .600, 230
Obama 2-3, .400, 152
Edwards 0-5, .000, 61
Gravel 0-5, .000, 0

Dennis Kucinich dropped out on January 25.

REPUBLICAN, Magic number: 1,191
Romney 3-3, .500, 73
McCain 2-4, .333, 38
Huckabee 1-5, .166, 29
Paul 0-5, .000, 6
Guiliani 0-5, .000, 2

Both parties have primaries in Florida on Tuesday.
