Updated S.C. “Who’s Running” List
IN CASE YOU’RE KEEPING SCORE AT HOME
FITSNews - April 24, 2008 - Running for political office in South Carolina is a lot like being in the Special Olympics. Sure, people make a big deal about it when you win, but at the end of the day you’re still retarded …
Actually, based on their conduct this week, “retarded” is probably a compliment.
Anyway, here’s the authoritative statewide list of all the candidates running for South Carolina’s Supreme Socialist and House of the Proletariat …

Are you sayin’…
Step by step, like an infant new kid.
Inch by inch with the new solution.
Trench men hits, with no delusion.
The feeling’s irresistible and that’s how we movin’.
[Chorus:]
Everybody, everybody, let’s get into it.
Get stupid.
Get retarded, get retarded, get retarded.
OK so you’ve successfully used the R word. Now figure out a way to use the N word in a story and we’ll really get some comments.

God, Fits, is there nothing you won’t say?

I know Harrison’s opponent dropped out, and I think Limehouse’s did too.
By A.J. Simon on April 25th, 2008 at 10:32 am
FITS,
Robert Ford is still running in District 42. And unless Steve King dropped out this week, Lourie has opposition.

Ok, well this IS an interesting site. But it might be a good idea to get someone to check for typos and double check the information.
Eric Hayler (D) is running against either Ralph Davenport (R) or Steve Parker (R) in House District 37 after their Republican June Primary duel. Dr. Hayler is unopposed in June. I know this because I am Eric’s Campaign Manager.
I do hope the site manager gets wind of this and fixes the list.
From more information on the District 37 House race and Eric Hayler:
