CHARLESTON, South Carolina (CNN) -- At Anjay's Salon in Charleston, the only thing louder than the hair dryer is the chorus of political opinions. On this day, owner Angela Jackson is outnumbered. She is the only one supporting Sen. Hillary Clinton over Sen. Barack Obama in South Carolina's Democratic primary Saturday.

"When you apply for a job, they ask you, do you have experience? They hire you based on experience. Hillary's been in office how long?" Jackson asks.

Customer Carol Singleton responds, "For me, Hillary, yes, she was a wife of a president, but she was not a president, so she doesn't earn credit for more experience than Obama. To me they're equal."

Stylist Shanese Jones says, "I just feel like it's his time. I think he's ready."

While three say they're undecided, the rest of the women in the salon say they plan to vote for Obama.

Analysts say black women this year never have been more engaged in a political campaign or held such power in determining the Democratic nominee.

Recent polls show black women are expected to make up more than a third of all Democratic voters in South Carolina's primary in five days.

Nice Bias by CNN, making Obama a sick yellow color next to a normal photo of Hillary.

What makes you think the MSM has any bias?

[TommyDale]

Well, in their truth-in-advertising mode, they are at least showing Hillary with a RED tint in addition to Barack Hussein Obama in YELLOW.

"When you apply for a job, they ask you, do you have experience? They hire you based on experience. Hillary's been in office how long?" Jackson asks.

For as long as Obama has, unless you count the non-office of First Lady.

Experience is one thing the DEM side is greatly lacking, and the one thing both Obama and Hillary are tied on.

maybe Obama had a bad tanning session. remember Kerry? He turned up Orangier than a California navel orange

Rush had it right years ago. It’s the Clinton News Network.

Black women expected to make up one-third of all democratic voters in S.C.

Women are torn between voting their race, or voting their gender

Translation: Black women in SC, that vote democrat, are shallow...

You’re not supposed to change headlines.

And maybe your monitor just needs adjustment.

I don’t think CNN colored the picture on purpose. This is what happens when ‘white balance’ in a digital camera is left on ‘Auto’ under tungsten lighting. However CNN could have fixed the colors in post, which they did not do.

Mr. Mustard the Mus' 'tard.

Good grief CNN, what is this, Obama the alien from Venus??

Hillary is a bit desperate currently, I'm sure she was saving that Lewinski story for the general election but had to use it early.

Mustard-colored? That’s a gas!

CNN looks at Obama with a Jaundiced Eye.

[Joann37]

That jumped out at me as well. Just goes to show you how ill-informed the dem voters are.

[Neu Pragmatist]

Ketchup and Mustard ...

[Recovering_Democrat]

I saw a news report from Eleanor Holmes Norton, the D.C. representative in Congress...she says she is having a hard time deciding who to vote for, since all she has worked for is coming true in this primary season. I thought, "Gee, yeah, you're asking 'do i vote for someone based on their sex or their race?' " Because that is what she is doing, by her own admission. MLK Jr. must be turning over in his grave.

That’s what you get when you eat too much of that damned mustard based SC BBQ sauce.

Exactly!
