As usual, we have no idea what combination of alcohol and insanity prompted SC Hotline‘s Jeffrey Sewell to send us his latest e-mail missive, but apparently it has something to do with a story on the website Wolfe Reports about … wait for it … the 2009 SCGOP Chairman’s race!
How do we know this? Because Sewell was already irate with Wolfe Reports over a story the website did on his company’s voter information files, and apparently his drunk delusions have convinced him that we’re behind all of it.
You know, because we’re “gunslingers” with “monied interests” and all.
Anyway, from Wolfe Reports:
In what amounts to the next bombshell move in the race for S.C. Republican Party chairman, U.S. Sen. Jim DeMint is personally calling up party activists on behalf of SCGOP chairman candidate Kevin Hall.
According to a source close to Wolfe Reports, DeMint just started whipping votes for Hall recently, following up on the endorsement letter he and U.S. Sen. Lindsey Graham sent out in the second week of February.
“It’s not unusual for an elected official to endorse another candidate,” the source said. “But for a U.S. senator to put in the time to personally call activists urging them to support Kevin Hall for state party chair, well, that’s a big deal and it illustrates how badly DeMint wants Hall running the party during his 2010 reelection campaign.”
Okay … good to know. It’s a nice scoop for the new kid, and the fact that a U.S. Senator who’s up for reelection in 2010 is already working the phones for the guy he wants to lead the party is obviously worth writing about (hence us picking it up).
But all anybody, anywhere in S.C. politics really wants to know is what the almighty Jeffrey thinks …
You know, since he “played” us yesterday into reprinting the Karen Floyd talking points on her past association with Rudy Giuliani.
“Game on my friend,” Sewell’s e-mail to us said.
Game on? Really?
Sheesh.
Oh, and just in case you were wondering, our default setting on e-mails we receive is that they are confidential. That’s how we roll, and it’s how we get the incredibly accurate information that we get.
But after several ridiculous threats and drunk text messages from Sewell, we finally got sick of it and told him anything else he sends us, we print.
Some people are just hard of hearing, it appears.

sic(k) willie plays the fool when he digs for gold over a child’s grave.
And he is “an ignorant slut” when he sucks stupid claiming a Midland’s elected official has a Strom problem. And he really shows big stupid when he claims he has knowledge of a SLED “beat down squad.” Waiting for details, willie.
But when sic(k) willie starts to sling m@d at his once and former almost boss and business partner who fired him before he was hired – priceless.

It’s not that he’s hard of hearing. He’s just not very bright, God bless the poor guy.
