U.S. Sen. Tim Scott (R-S.C.) has been impressing us with his votes in Washington, D.C. over the last few months. So far, he’s upheld the principled brand of free market, pro-liberty conservatism advanced by his predecessor – Heritage Foundation president Jim DeMint.
Which is good … and a stark contrast to the big-spending, liberty-hating, war-mongering “neoconservatism” of South Carolina’s other United States Senator, Lindsey Graham.
Anyway … while Scott has attracted our attention with his solid record, he’s attracted the attention of The Hill – a D.C. insider rag – for another reason. According to the publication, Scott is the 35th “most beautiful” person on Capitol Hill.
Oh … and he also has a new girlfriend.
“She’s great,” Scott told The Hill’s Emily Godwin. “We’ll see how it works out.”
Scott has previously been linked to Charleston, S.C. lingerie store owner Zee Patel, although that relationship reportedly ended prior to his appointment to the Senate. The 47-year-old bachelor is notoriously tight-lipped about his love life.
No. 1 on The Hill’s “most beautiful” list? U.S. Sen. Jeff Flake (R-Arizona). Frankly that selection – like the vast majority of this year’s winners – was a bit underwhelming.

I think a lot of conservatives use Tim Scott just so they can be all: “See there; we’re not racist because we have a black guy”.
You are probably correct, it’s the “I have a black friend” type thing for politics.
Don’t ignore though that Dems love labeling “conservatives” racist for political purposes as well.
In fact, no one loves separating people based on color/race more than our gov’t….just about every gov’t form for anything has check boxes for “race”.
The whole system has implicit endorsements for favoritism based on race…it’s American as apple pie as far as the last 50+ years go.
Two sides of the same coin.
I think a lot of politicians do this. Don’t be a fracking racist scum sucker.

For the love of John Monk…..Geez….!? What kind of fluff piece is this…?? Where is Tim Scott on persecuting Hillary Clinton for going to Libya and declaring “We came, We saw, and he DIED…”!! Does Tim Scott not understand who is responsible for the deaths in Benghazi…??
My backside……..
