I have a question regarding the Republican priamry for the new 7th. Congressional District, which is safely Republican. None of the candidates seem to be the overwhelming favorite and I don’t know much about any of them except for Andre Bauer and what I know about Bauer isn’t good. I am intrigued by Horry County Councilman Tom Rice, who’s a CPA (we need more of those in Congress), but if he’s a RINO or establishment hack, I’d prefer someone else. Since the area is strongly Republican, we don’t have to worry about electability and go for the most conservative. Who would that be?
I’m not terribly familiar with which is the best candidate. Bauer is a no-go, of course. I’m intrigued with Mande Wilkes, though... http://mandewilkes.com/
I see why you’re intrigued.
; )
Better looking than Bauer that’s for sure.
I hope for anybody but Bauer to win.
Just looking at the list I’d guess Bauer’s main competition is the Horry County (Myrtle Beach) Chairman Tom Rice. Know anything about him, Upchuck?
All I know about Tom Rice is that he’s a CPA and that he served in some local office before being elected to his current post.
Sorry, I don’t.
