Connor was, and is, considered a blow-hard ticket puncher. His "eval" is very telling and AUTO-biographical. He flew by helicopter to the end point of the convoy and drove one way. They drew a couple of pings from small arms fire. PERIOD. He's considered a REMF by those he served with. PERIOD. I’m an Iran-Afghan vetwho served w/Connor.

It will be hard for them. I really liked meeting him and appreciate his service. I also appreciate the service of every war veteran and the families as well. I was shocked to see the REMF comment about Bill Connor. That's no way to talk about a hero. I’m very sorry for the Pitt’s. It will be hard for them.

Ted Pitts does an extremely honorable thing, making a huge personal and professional sacrifice to defend our nation, and the Ard Camp can't wait 24 hours out of respect to start hammering away with negative personal attacks at the only war veteran candidate remaining in the race? Bill's statement last night stands for itself. The focus really should be showering the Pitts family and the other members of the 178th with our love, our thoughts, and our prayers, not the typical professional politician garbage flowing from the Ard camp. Y'all stay classy, now. Wow.

Robert and Katie (Ken Ard campaign staff for those that don't see the obvious)are you anxious to continue attacking the Scott campaign with your gay accusations so trying to get Connor out of the way? The fact is Connor appears to be the leader in this race. His support with the voters in this state is obvious from his disclosures. He has multiples compared to the other two remaining candidates. Ard has his cronies from Florence. You people (Ard campaign) are scum to use this announcement by Ted Pitts as a political opportunity to attack Bill Connor, the only other person in this race that knows what the Pitts family is going through right now. You've tried unsuccessfully in that respect everytime Connor's name gets mentioned and now stoop even lower. You're taking a time when we should all be saying prayers for the Pitts family and turning it into a slimefest. That's certainly not surprising coming from Robert Cahaly but one would think Katie doesn't want the same reputation for sleaziness that Robert already has. Ken Ard, you are not standing in the backroom of a feed store making a deal for a vote or donation. This is the State of South Carolina and the nasty tactics of your team are not welcome. Those days left with bell bottoms. as far as the REMF comment, you're certainly showing your ignorance in that respect. The evals I've read certainly laud Mr Connor for his service in the military, especially in a hostile zone. This is especially galling coming from a campaign for someone who never served, quit school, sold out and did his best to raise taxes among MANY other things. And by the way Robert, I hear Tim's more than a little upset that you tried to point the blame in his direction on the wolfereports site.
