Our citizens will vote for a sloth if it were on the ticket as Republican.

Gotta have balance for Massachusetts but at least we have Clyburn.

No evidence they like boys either. Too bad. Could be the ultimate power couple.

Why is it y’all constantly claim homosexuality as so noble…yet you never miss a chance to try to insult and cut people down the people you hate by attacking them as gay?

Either it’s the new African-American (unquestionable dignity regardless of reality) or it’s an embarrassment subject to ridicule because everybody knows you are weak, filthy and lascivious people?

Oh, Whatever October 27, 2014 at 12:02 pm

Sen. Scott still has that new Senator smell about him. People get less enchanted with incumbents of both parties, yet they almost always vote them back in. Scott also is part of the purity wing that has almost zero actual influence on legislation, so they get to vote whatever is convenient. Graham believes legislators should do more than talk, while the likes of Ted Cruz get tax-funded salaries to do what Rush Limbaugh does on the radio.

“… In addition to his political career, Scott owns an insurance agency, and works as a financial advisor. …” – Wikipedia: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tim_Scott

He may have some sensibilities about making and setting a realistic federal budget.

(Wondering: has He been invited into the congressional “black” caucus?)

No, they treat him like a turd in the punch bowl. Did the same with Allen West. Disgraceful behavior. It should be called the congressional black democrat caucus.

Tim Scott is nothing more than a stand in place holder for Nicki Haley.
As soon as she’s thru screwing up SC, she will defeat Scott for the Senate.
Which will be easy as Scott is worthless as a Senator representing SC.

She won’t defeat him. How could she even run against him, given she appointed him?

She has illusions of being on the ticket in 2016 for POTUS or VP. She will find out that just because you can bullshit sandlappers, doesn’t mean anyone else will buy your bullshit.

Because theoretically Graham should be having a tough reelection bid. And he would be having one if this wasn’t South Carolina we were talking about.

Mandates for both in primaries and general election. Scott will get some black votes and has a weaker opponent. Graham has the anti incumbent taint that Scott hasn’t had time to sink in.

I have never seen an ad or heard either man mention a woman. No pics, no chat. I think when you hide something like that, you are not revealing your entire identity. And no one is pushing that button. But it is one of the 800 pound gorillas in the room here in SC. I am amazed it is not an issue in this post-outing era, when people are more relaxed, at least folks under 30, about sexual orientation.

More anti-Graham hysteria and silliness. Hutto will certainly get considerably more than 62% of the black vote, but that will in no way threaten Graham. As for the disparity between our senators, grown-ups (and pollsters) know that the difference stems from incumbency. Scott hasn’t been up there long enough to piss himself off, much less anyone here. They’ll both win (and by comfortable margins), just liek most of us on here predicted six months ago while FITS was still pre-calling the “momentum” race for Senator Mace, I mean Senator Ravenel.
