[Tolerance Sucks Rocks]

An unemployed military veteran who raised no funds and put up no campaign website shocked South Carolina's Democratic Party leadership by capturing the nomination Tuesday to face Republican U.S. Sen. Jim DeMint in November.

With nearly all precincts reporting, Alvin Greene, 32, commanded 59 percent of the vote against 41 percent for former four-term state lawmaker Vic Rawl, 64, who had raised about $186,000 and had to abruptly scrap a late-week fundraiser for the fall.

State Democratic Party Chairwoman Carol Fowler said voters unfamiliar with either candidate may have voted alphabetically for Greene over Rawl.

Shows you what the Dems think of their voters.

[MNJohnnie]

Proof positive you have to be a total idiot to vote for a Democrat.

Good thing those Democratic voters research their candidates wisely with that proven scientific method of alphabetical order

And isnt that speshul. Thankfully “D” comes before “G”

Are the demokrat voters of SC so stupid they will elect an unemployed guy to create him a job?

Our voters are stupid. We're going to need cheat sheets printed up for November.

LOL, my thoughts exactly!

Denial. It isn't JUST a river in Egypt.

[justiceseeker93]

Our voters are stupid.

No, remember that these are DUMMYcrat voters!!!

[Nonstatist]

No real surprise, IMO. Basically, a majority of the people in SC that are Democrat are Black, and Greene was Black and Rawls was White. End of story.

Wow. Let's see if see loses her job over that bonehead comment.

[napscoordinator]

Well the guy did serve in the military. I thought we wanted candidates who were not elitist. I guess you do not want a nobody to run only establishment. If this guy was Republican, I would wish him the best and you would too. I want him to lose only because he is a Democrat but I don’t wish anything bad on the guy.

[Russ]

Unfortunately, I believe she is correct. After all, they are Democrats...

IOW, they are as dumb as rocks (or Floriduh voters)

[Carley]

Was it a butterfly ballot.

[Protect the Bill of Rights]

DeMint, a conservative Republican and tea party darling pursuing a second term, has marshaled a $3.5 million war chest already to face the bare-pockets Democratic underdog.

I did a double take after reading this sentence. Sounds as if it was written by a dem strategist.

[Oldpuppymax]

TRANSLATION: Those stupid damn voters. They picked the wrong guy because most of them can’t read!

From your local democrat party thug.

We may need to remind our SC Dim friends that the general election will be held on Wednesday, Nov 3rd.

Here in Broward county FL, (a liberal cesspool) I cringe when I look around at the jabba-the-huts that can’t even get out of the Dairy queen booth.
