Haley should be very concerned about the black vote. You have a candidate that is running against a bumbling idiot McMaster who is well liked. You have Haley saying to Mrytle Beach residents stop black bike week. This is not the last election where she had an advantage. She is going to loose this one the polls are wrong.

Not apathy. In the process of destroying America ,Obama has destroyed the Democrat Party.

Obama has not destroyed, nor is trying to destroy America. The Democratic Party is stronger than the GOP, nationally. It must suck to be so butt hurt all the time.

It is? The Republican Party controls the house, soon will control the senate, control the majority of governorships and both senate/house in states.

What you know bout “butt hurt”-my guess is plenty?

Governors ebb and flow, in most states a D succeeds an R and vice versa.

Democrats are all but certain to gain Governors this cycle. It is by no means certain that the Senate will go Republican, and even if it does, it most likely will only last until the next cycle.

Polling shows the GOP with lower approvals than Obama and Democrats generally.

Republicans have won the popular vote for POTUS onlyonce in the last 5 elections.

Considering 2/3rds of those polls in the RCP average are from Republican pollsters many that just started in the polling business, you might not want to bet the mortgage on them being right.

BTW, 22 D governors would be a PICKUP of 1. That is giving the edge in EVERY close race to the GOP. Not going to happen.

Huh? The perpetual welfare system that has enslaved blacks for 3 generations was set up by the Democratic Party for votes.

Without it there would not be a Democrat Party.

So gerrymandering, suppressing and lying are okay because of welfare? I’m willing to bet that there isn’t a welfare recipient that has over $ 500 in the bank. Believe it or not that money spends. There are a lot of “rich white folk” that have made millions off of welfare recipients. More than likely you have at least indirectly benefitted from the welfare system.

You Republicans ought to thank God for Jim Clyburn.

If his District weren’t gerrymandered to cram as many Black voters as possible into one District and hose folks were distributed among other districts,there might be two or three Democrats in the SC Congressional delegation ,instead of one

History is history and all history is sacred. Sometimes history sucks, but why rewrite it and act like it never happened? That’s essentially what Vinny is proposing, here: let’s rewrite history to act like the civil war never happened, and SC never seceded. No, it did happen, as shameful as that may be. The flag should stay up. Some may take pride in it, but for others it serves as a reminder of where we have been, and gives us a chance to stop and be thankful for where we are now.
Mind you, there is also an African American monument on the grounds as part of the compromise.

I don’t think Haley understands the issue. What matters is people-not CEO’s. The Confederate Flag is a racially charged symbol of oppression, that has/continues to cause hurt feelings. The fact that business leaders have not specifically mentioned the flag does not mean anything. The flag is not a “business” issue. It’s a moral one.

Bingo. CEOs are the ONLY ones Haley cares about. People that can do something for HER. That’s why she styles herself a union buster. Boeing came here with their management team and the only SC hires are labor (which would have been unionized if in WA). So the jobs created for SC citizens are the ones she’s hell-bent on keeping wages and benefits down for.

The flag may not be on the radar of CEO’s but its removal may bring more jobs from those CEOs who are sensitive about issues like this. CEO’s are not oblivious about state action or inaction. Seems to me a CEO would want to placate as many people as possible in order to thrive. You catch more flies with honey…….

For a self described “Conservative” Trikki Nikki sure is into “messages” and “feelings”, i.e., governing by emotion, something Conservatives have long accused Liberals of doing. During the debate she not only refused to acknowledge that that flag belongs in a museum, she went on to describe how South Carolin had “fixed” all our image problems of the past, presumably as it relates to race.

“Conceding that South Carolina had suffered an image problem in the past, Haley asserted that the state had moved beyond those days.

“But we really kind of fixed all that when you elected the first Indian-American female governor,” Haley said. “When we appointed the first African-American U.S. senator, that sent a huge message.””

http://www.salon.com/2014/10/15/nikki_haley_its_ok_to_have_the_confederate_flag_at_the_statehouse_because_not_a_single_ceo_has_complained/

So the imagery of an Indian and the message we sent by nominating Tim Scott, erases what she thinks needs to addressed along those lines?

As a Republican, I’m just more and more embarrassed that she’s my Governor and will be for 4 more years. Every time she opens her mouth she demonstrates more and more just how ignorant and dumb she is. And we’ve long known that she governs by what kind of mood she’s in, and how she’s “feeling” and then sends a “message”. All hallmarks of liberals. If Democrats would nominate the kind of Democrats they used to in SC, say prior to Gov. Campbell, they’d mop the floor with her.
