McLeod Unveils Jobs Plan, Dodges Brooke Gordon Rumors

S.C. gubernatorial candidate Mullins McLeod unveiled his big “jobs plan” Thursday.  Meanwhile, his campaign dodged rumors that he’s once again dating Brooke Gordon – the scorching hot former wife of NASCAR driver Jeff Gordon.

Sources tell FITS that McLeod was spotted Saturday night at a Charlotte, N.C. nightclub with Brooke, his ex-girlfriend, sitting at a VIP table.

“The two were quite close,” our source says. “I was under the impression they were dating.”

McLeod and Gordon were the only two people seated at the table, although several NASCAR executives reportedly dropped by to chat.

Gordon recently maxed out to McLeod’s gubernatorial campaign, incidentally, and the former Miss Sprint Cup is said to have “some interest” in becoming South Carolina’s next First Lady, to which we can only say, “va-va-voom,” people.

FITS founding editor Sic Willie – who was in the Charlotte area Saturday night – was originally thought to have been the source of this story, although it was later confirmed that he was in a redneck Karaoke bar a few miles south of the border on Saturday night.

They don’t let people like him in reputable establishements, people.

Anyway, we asked McLeod spokesman Lachlan McIntosh about the rumors regarding his candidate and Gordon and received a short, not-so-sweet reply.

“Yeah, so what,”  he said.

Allllrighty, then.

FITS first reported on the rumored relationship between McLeod and Gordon in this post (which includes a nice photo gallery of Ms. Gordon, in case you’re into that sort of thing).

Anyway, moving on …

McLeod’s jobs plan … riiiight.

Readers can click on the document below, but it does include one interesting component – a call to remove the Confederate battle flag from the grounds of the S.C. State House.

“The Confederate Flag debate continues to hold our state back,” McLeod says. “We are not going to compete in a 21st Century economy by prolonging 19th Century arguments.”

Non-symbolically speaking, McLeod’s plan promises “immediate” middle class tax relief, although it does not specify whether or not other taxes will be raised in conjunction with that promise.
