Spot on sums up Haley in just a few words. Haley needs to be unemployed next year she had been nothing but a disaster since she took office.
Can we expect similar ads about: SCDOT, SCDEW, SCDOR, etc., etc., etc. ?
And, they need to point out that this is not just the 4 years of Haley, it’s the 12 years of Sanford/Haley ineptitude. It is time too begin to crawl back out from under and that will take paying attention and not just voting for the R after the idiot’s name.
The problems at DSS with 40 cases per worker goes back atleast 14 years. Kohler was putting foster children into stable homes and should be applauded.
Leatherman just might give her a casino or two in her next term…can we say legacy…all sins forgiven.
DSS has a tough job, and has always been understaffed, but it has never been on this level before. Kohler was clearly over her head, and should have been gone long before she was.
Haley’s appointments are based on political chits only, and not basic competence to do the job.
You obviously were hired by Koller over @ DSS @ the State Office in Columbia. Otherwise you would know that Koller and her cronies are not placing children in stable homes. They are bribing relatives and anyone else who will accept or adopt Foster Children so “their numbers will look good” to Gov. Haley. Do you really believe that all of the letters and emails to the Senate sub committee from actual DSS employees are lies?
I still refuse to vote for Sheheen. Needless to say I won’t vote for Haley.
I’ll be paying more attention, going forward, to French and Ervin.
Specifically, why do you refuse to vote for Sheheen?
He is even more of a tool of the corrupt crony capitalists tied to the chamber of commerce than is Nikki Haley.
Evidence?
Grand Strand business leaders react to state chamber’s endorsement of Sheheen over Haley

FITS did a whole series of articles, even before he became a candidate, about his close ties to the chamber. Which he referred to as the “Chamber of Communists.”
They don’t seem to be as much on his shit list these days, though, although he says he’s opposed to crony capitalism. The US Chamber (to which the vast majority of state and local chambers belong) is the largest body of organized crony capitalists/corporatists in the world.
When Haley first ran for governor, their guy was Gresham Barrett in the primary. Barrett was caught up in the “Coastal Kickback” mess, and had other problems. When he lost to Haley, the SC Chamber backed Sheheen, and all the local chambers fell in line.
So you’re going to waste a vote. Cool story bro.
The only wasted votes are no votes at all, and a vote for someone you abhor just because the system forces you into a bullshit two-party monopoly system.
Oh snap! Everyone thought Haley was gonna coast in – and the poll didn’t include Tom. Figure Tom’s gonna get about 10% points and now Vinny gets 48, Nikk-ster gets 42, and that’s conservaitve. More likely Tommy pulls 20%, Nikk-ster gets 32 and Vinny wins. Go Vinny. Maybe she can get some help from Chris Krispy Cream Christie.
AGREED! Go Mrs. Burton! Simple ad that’s on point and well-spoken. Haley needs to go.
Very well done commercial, best I’ve seen in the campaign so far. Mrs. Burton is right on.
The State Office of Inspector General’s 2012 – 2013 Annual Report also damns Haley’s DSS:
Agency # hotline complaints FY 2012 – 2013
DSS 50
DHHS 21
DOT 11
DE&W 11
OTHERS 212
TOTAL 205
The OIG got more complaints concerning DSS (25%) than any other agency by a long shot.
Haley indeed has blood on her hands. Shame on her.

When you’re a functional idiot even people of normal intelligence merit “rock star” status.
I disagree with your review of the ad. The general public is sick of “professional narrators” telling us how to think. I’m glad they went with this nice lady instead of some man in a studio somewhere.
I disagree as well. To me, this ad is finally one that the public can relate to. Not some overdone professional narrator, but a real, respectable professional who’s speaking from their own experience with DSS.
Maybe Tom Ervin can run the same ad, with the edits you suggest, Slick.
Haley lose? B’wah! She could be filmed selling foster children to gypsies and then funneling the money to Indian terrorists and she would still draw 52%+ of the vote because of the “R” next to her name on the ballot…this is South Carolina, people.
Like I always said, there’s one born every minute…
