Nikki Haley goes from small-time agitator to credible candidate for S.C. governor.
She has already bypassed Obama, he's still a small time agitator.

This woman has already been through a lot I can only imagine, as a Conservative, minority, woman what will happen to her after she becomes a Governor.

Honestly, I would have expected a WaPo profile to be even worse.

Nikki Haley goes from small-time agitator to credible candidate for S.C. governor.Of course. She started small. Unlike the limousine liberals who start big and end up with small minds.

Unlike the limousine liberals who start big and end up with small minds. The limousine liberals rarely earned their money themselves. They are heirs and heiresses.
Daddy earned the money. And it is his progeny's job to piss it away at Democrat fundraisers.

Washington Post Derides Nikki Haley as a Former Small-time Agitator Dear Washington Post:
Certainly, if a former 'small-time agitator' can be President of the United States, then Nikki Haley can be Governor of South Carolina.

Nikki Haley is great. I don’t believe a word of the allegations against her. But calling her a “small-time agitator” is really small stuff. I don’t think it was a deliberate slam. It”s just a symptom of a disease: they never would have said that about a Democrat.
