Will – it wasn’t the trial lawyers that Judicial Candidate Chellis was shilling for, it was the real estate lawyers. Hudson is strongly managed-growth and Horne is a realtor. That’s what Judicial Candidate Chellis meant when he stated that “our livelihoods were at stake” And of course, Judicial Candidate is entitled to his opinion. He is not, however, entitled to SHARE his opinion. Canon 5 of the Rules of Judicial Ethics plainly prohibits a judicial candidate from supporting or opposing a candidate for office. Oops.

Heyward hasn’t pulled them, neither has Jenny. Certain supporters of each campaign have.

“Their livelihoods are at stake?” Sounds like aspects of the Riley reich in Chucktown, when the Broad Street lawyers demanded a courthouse within walking distance of their offices, rather than in North Charleston, where the temporary facilites were post Hugo.

Oddly, despite howls of protest that Charleston lawyers would die of starvation if they had to pay for parking in the uncivilized wilds of North Charleston, not one is known to have starved to death during the years they had to soil themselves by travelling past the Adult oriented businesses that were forced to move from downtown Charleston to the “neck area”.

Ryan, if phone banking and knocking on doors is dirty politics, then Heyward Hutson is guilty. Otherwise, if you can’t be specific, you’re “out of line”.

That was no misprint. I saw the email.

GMF-

Actually, it’s no misprint. And the first sentence of the e-mail reads “I would like each of you Pledge your support to Jenny Horne.”

It’s one grade above Rick Beltram’s work.

Why no link to the e-mail? What is it that the trial lawyers fear about Hutson? I served with Heyward during his first stint in the House and found him to be a pretty genuine conservative type Rep.

sic(k) will, you’re so full of yourself. Beatty is a respected Judge who is now on the highest State Court in S.C. And, what are you?

A professional blogger. How does that look on your resume?

Blogger!?! The blogger who brought us the midlands elected official with a Strom problem. The blogger who brought us the guvernor’s problem over the little black girl. The blogger who investigated the guvernor’s laptop computer. Yawn. The blogger who “almost” got some secret list from some unknown persons in a bar. Zzzzzz.

By the way, everyone knows that a blogger in a bar who claims he was only drinking sarsaparilla can not be trusted on anything.

The race is even better as the Democrat David Mays has dropped out after it was discovered he’s late on child support payments.

Dorchester County is full of dirty politics and people backing Hutson and Horne have both been pulling tricks this election.

if not the 4th grade, didn’t law school teach him when to use the word here, and when to use the word hear?
