Breaking News: South Carolina Senate Hopeful Alvin Greene Indicted on Felony Obscenity Charge

[Never on my watch]

So the only way they can replace him is if he withdraws.

Unlike other Demoncrat candidates, he has absolutely NOTHING to lose by staying in the race. If the dems are expecting him to step down for the sake of the party or for the good of the State, they are really mistaken.

If he stays in and loses, he will get his own reality show.

This proves that Greene is the IDEAL Democrat senator, although I do think they're overreaching on the indictment a bit.

The victim was an adult, and the crime didn't harm her in any way beyond making her feel uncomfortable. Charge him with misdemeanor trespassing or something, slap a fine on him, and bar him from campus, but a 3 year prison sentence felony for flashing a screen of a porno website at another adult is overkill.

[conimbricenses]

I have to disagree. What he did was not normal. At all.

It is for Democrat politicians. And I sure don't recall Bill Clinton getting a felony obscenity indictment for whipping his junk out at Paula Jones.

[conimbricenses]

Just wait and see. He’s about to get a message from the Democrat machine: “withdraw in favor of Vic Rawl and we’ll make this all go away.”

[Marty62]

Good grief, the Dummie candidates reads like an FBI 10 most wanted list of criminals.

[onemiddleamerican]

The accused is a black man. The accuser is a white (young) woman.

Where's Rev. Al Sharpton and Rev. Jesse Jackson and the race baiters in the CBC screaming "racism" for all to hear?

Just wonderin'...

[Oldpuppymax]

Does anyone think this will cost him even ONE vote from the democrat base??!!

[americanophile]

Yep. Now they’ll get a real substitute candidate. ...culture of corruption on full display.

I hear a ham sandwich was indicted along with Greene.

I thought this issue had been dropped months ago.

[mquinn]

Greene is too much of a dimwitted thug for even the likes of Sharpton to rush to the defense. That is really saying something about Greene....

[Typical_Whitey]

Whats amazing about this story is that we didn’t have to learn about it in the National Enquirer 2 years from now...

LOL... Seems like ol’ Alvin pissed off some libs...

[mrsixpack36]

I find it even more comical that the dems think they have a chance at the seat with someone else. It was the safest GOP seat in the country no matter who the dems trotted out.

[mrsixpack36]

You have never been in a Co-ed university dorm room then. A lot of stuff worse than this goes down.

“He’ll make a perfect Democrat senator.”

For democrats that is usually a resume enhancer!

Democrats are racist for trying to get him out of the race! They left Barney Frank in office as well as Ted Kennedy, Chris Dodd ( waitress sandwich) among numerous others like Fed emloyees who watch porn during work!

[a fool in paradise]

It’s outright Nifongism. It’s a witchhunt because the corrupt RATs want him outta-th’-party.

They want a bait-and-switch replacement.

[Blood of Tyrants]

What is the big deal? Perversion and criminal activity is a resume enhancer for liberals.

[cookcounty]

How come they didn’t get Franken on this?

[savedbygrace]

But if a sitting Democrat Senator or Rep is indicted, they are always given the benefit of the doubt and not forced to step down.

You mean it’s different if the indicted one is just a candidate? He’s not worthy of the benefit of the doubt?

This is my shocked face.

[FreeStateYank]

Yep. There is something very suspect about the whole deal...
