Well, the Senate has lost three “Democrats” thus far with Sandy Senn, Katrina Shealy, and Penry Gustafson, on their way out. This is a great thing for freedom. Now, if we could replace “Democrat” Luke Rankin with someone, anyone, even a card-carrying real “Democrat”; we would be doing just fine!
I believe our legislature should consist of individuals that have been elected to represent a block of people. The parties only hinder good governance. Membership in a party does nothing but provide low-information voters a litmus test to use at voting time. I’m not saying that I like a lot of the things that go on in Columbia, but it’s a little refreshing to see people not toeing the party line. It, at least, shows that they are thinking for themselves. When they fail to represent the voters, the elections provide obvious recourse. Unless, of course, the voters are only looking at which party the offender is aligning with.
The Senate is the home for the mediocre.
The Senate is where large egos go to be purchased by small checks from entrenched special interest.
The Senate is where moderates claim to be conservatives and where the amoral claim to be God fearing.
The Senate is the burial grounds for the dashed aspirations of South Carolina.
