Is this the same El Kabong who used to be on WLTX and who had a taste for Yogi Bear fried chicken?

He won’t challenge Haley because he knows he can’t win. Someone of his gravitas and intellect would never want to admit defeat to a prima donna like Haley.

considering that he would be the last seperately elected Lt. Governor in SC if he ran, the gossip from the inner most circles is he is running for Lt. Governor and will then retire from politics in 2018–if he lives that long.

Glenn is a very interesting person.
He knows the politics of this State better than anyone.
As a Governor, he’d know how to get things done.
The real questions would be: What things would he want to get done??

I’m in the “Anybody, but Trickey Nickey,” category: even Glenn McConnell.

LOL……LOL…….

“…..What will McConnell do? At this point no one knows. He hasn’t been raising money for a statewide campaign, although given his Rolodex and the numerous IOUs he has accumulated over the years he should have no problem filling his coffers should he decide to do so….”

Once again Mr. Wil Folks really has no clue how Glenn should be USED…?

We wonder just how many politicos in the State of South Carolina have read this article….

Matter of fact, we wonder how many Citadel Cadets have read the article and have reviewed the Port of Charleston’s import and export ledgers…?? Can any of the Cadets perceive the implications of a McConnell, Graham and MACE debate trifecta after reading this article…??

If McConnell knows how to get replica Civil War muskets….we feel sure he understands how Chinese “investment in Sudan can be used to launder US funds to support the REBELS in Syria..??

Matter of Fact, we wonder why WIl Folks has not questioned Mace on any “foreign policy” vision she has..? …..or especially Glenn McConnell…? Heck, if Graham is going to be a Casper candidate then how are South Carolina Cadets supposed to understand WHO to cheer for with their Daddy’s money…?

“most powerful man in the Senate ..” that’s something to be proud of, considering how f-ed up the Legislature is … like being the smartest kid in the dumbest class. Thanks, Glenn, for helping make us #50 in nearly every category … some leadership … jerk.

McConnell formed some uneasy alliance with Queen Jean Toal a few years back. When he was no longer chairman of the Senate Judiciary Committee, he was not of as much use to the Queen as he once was. However, when she decided to screw over Pleicones, she went back to McConnell. There is some question now as to what he has told the Queen he intends to do. Perhaps McConnell woke up to the fact of just what a snake the Queen really is. This could get interesting.

What I am about to say is not meant to be a cut at Will or Glenn or Frank Pytel, all of whom of whom I consider friends.. but here goes.. (throat clearing noises)..

Do you know what a political IOU is worth once the politician is out of power? Metaphorically speaking, your dog may have done it on Frank Pytel’s front lawn. I hate it, but, there you are.

He’s too queer to win a statewide race — and by that I mean (a) his sexual orientation (lack of wife, children, lives with his mother, etc.) and (b) his abnormal obsession with the Hunley, wearing Confederate uniforms, and playing with his custom-built brass cannon.

He’s no longer powerful enough to get the House votes needed to get a judgeship. (Many there simply hate him.)

His AIDS problem is too well known by the C of C board — who are “spooked” by the thought of that disease being made public, and with whom he also has no clout.

He’s a shriveled shell of his former wretched self.

Maybe his lover, Warren Lasch, will give him a job dispatching BMWs from Columbus Street Terminal.

Payback time, right, Glenn?

à Dieu.
