Social conservative Upstate, S.C. businessman Richard Cash reported raising $76,000 for his U.S. Senate race during the most recent fundraising quarter.

That’s well below the roughly $235,000 raised by Lowcountry businesswoman Nancy Mace.

Cash has not revealed how much money he has on hand, but he spent more than he raised in the previous quarter.

S.C. Sen. Lee Bright – the anointed candidate of the Tea Party – has not revealed how much money he raised during the fourth quarter, although he told The (Columbia, S.C.) State newspaper that his fundraising has “struggled.” Bright raised roughly $102,000 during the third quarter.

Another candidate, Orangeburg, S.C. attorney Bill Connor also has yet to release his quarterly totals.

All four candidates are vying to become the “anti-Graham” – i.e. the “conservative alternative” to liberal two-term incumbent U.S. Sen. Lindsey Graham (RINO-S.C.), who has a $7 million mountain of special interest money.

To put this in perspective a well-know bbq merchant from the upstate was broke. He wrote 60 letters asking for $1000 each to open himself a restaurant. At the time he was 300 pounds overweight and selling his sandwiches from a roadside picnic table. By his own account he received nearly $30,000. He did not promise to change the world, the country or give away a rifle. He just wanted to get to work.

$102K – pathetic.

The amount of money is not all that matters. I hope this election will prove that one’s voting record and political stance matters more than his bank account.

I agree. Not so Bright is broke both personally and in his campaign. He owes more than $1.4 million big ones to 30 creditors. Unelectable.
