A dumbed-down Bobby Jindal in drag will never curry enough votes in South Carolina, regardless of how much lead is in the drinking water.

Naw, SC is not racist. The Republican party needs diversity? How could anyone who reads this stream come to either of those conclusions.

SC has a white male issue. You get out of things what you put in. Now, what is SC ranked again?

A couple more arms like Shiva might be handy (sorry) for a politician. All the better to point in several different directions at once in campaigning or casting blame. Or for slipping hands into the pockets of multiple others simultaneously, or receiving several plain unmarked fat envelopes from far different corners.

(Perhaps she can sikh favor as well.)

“Churchill remarked: ‘I have not felt such heat since the plains of India.’”

Great story.

He may have re-evaluated now in Hell, for he too–like Saddam–poison gassed the Kurds.

I sure hope Nikki can curry favor in a state loaded with Shi’ite Baptists.

It’d be a damn shame if she couldn’t.

After all, South Carolina’s summers are very similar to India’s.

Winston Churchill visited Columbia on a hellish summer day during World War II.

As he toured Fort Jackson, Churchill remarked: “I have not felt such heat since the plains of India.”

Ironically, Haley’s expertise and work experience is Accounting. Adds up doesn’t it? Perfect fit for a hypocrite.

Doesn’t know or question the price of a comfy cozy flight to China.

Didn’t demand Sanford turn over the keys to the kingdom while missing, off the books, for 5 plus days.

Doesn’t confront the issues of a public servant stealing.

exponential flights, days off with pay, political galas, non-fruitful first class international conventions

Has she ever had a job? I don’t mean a job working for your mom and dad or glad-handing for a hospital or even “working” in the legislature. I mean a real job?

It’s Bobby Jindal in drag!

The things they can do with make-up and lighting these days!

But he’s acting dumbed-down for some reason.

Oh, yeah . . . it’s South Carolina.

I have no problem with someone with Indian heritage being my governor. I have no problem with anyone, any creed, religion, race, heritage, or sexual orientation being governor. You cannot tell any kid that because you are “X” you can never be governor, or president, or whatever. That is so un-American. We are the land of equality and opportunity.

That said, I have seen and heard Nikki Haley and she is a Sanford clone. Same exact political DNA. Sanford has darn near ruined this state, and I think she would just finish the job.

All I want out of our next governor is someone who will care about all the people of SC, the big and the little, more than about their own political future, more than their own welfare, and lead us out of the 19th century in our education system, out of our poverty, and give us some credibility on the national front. That’s a tall order.

Dick Riley was that kind of man. So were many others. No right thinking person would knock Haley for her heritage. That is mean and racist. But the last thing we need is Sanford redux.
