The convincing win in SC, including perhaps overperforming in areas and demographics that weren't necessarily supposed to be his strengths, seems to have coalesced some support behind him.
It'll be interesting to see how this reflects in the polls, both ST and nationally. The latter doesn't matter much outside of momentum perception, but if he does better than expected on ST, this is a new race. (Not that the "old" race was over, by any stretch.)
