DEMOCRATIC SENATE CANDIDATE VOWS TO WIN NOMINATION

Jay Stamper – a controversial U.S. Senate candidate from Washington State who had been openly feuding with his party leadership – went for months as the only Democrat looking to challenge U.S. Sen. Lindsey Graham (RINO-S.C.). Liberal on social issues but claiming a fiscally conservative streak, Stamper presented an interesting potential contrast to Graham – who is socially conservative but fiscally liberal.

Last week, though, the Democrat establishment found a credible candidate to run against Stamper – S.C. Sen. Brad Hutto (D-Orangeburg).

Hutto, a liberal trial lawyer, will be well-supported financially – meaning Stamper has suddenly gone from the party’s nominee-in-waiting to a serious underdog.

So … is he dropping out?

Nope.

“I’m going to continue to stand up to the Democratic political establishment,” Stamper told FITS. “Then, I’m going to beat Lindsey Graham.”

Hmmmm …

Like Thom Yorke said, “this one’s optimistic.”

Considering that he has a felony securities violation on his record and paid $3.5 million in restitution, he would be just like another Republican if he were to win. He will not because voters really don’t like felons running for office. Except in SC.

The only important difference between Stamper and Alvin Greene is that Brad Hutto is way smarter than Vic Rawl. Brad will crush Stamper in the primary because he knows he has to campaign–unlike the arrogant Mr. Rawl.
