I will for you.

People ought to realize that Gingrich, Santorum and Huntsman aren't even on the ballot in three major states so they are UNELECTABLE. Therefore, don't waste your vote South Carolina! Your choices are Mitt Romney (the status quo candidate for more tyranny) or Ron Paul (the candidate for Peace, Liberty and Prosperity and UPHOLDING the Constitution FOR A FORWARD CHANGE back to the right direction this country USED to be in many decades ago). We can turn it around! Vote Ron Paul.



Remember SC readers, all the Status Quo candidates including Mitt Romney support the Patriot Act and the National Defense Authorization Act where an amendment was recently passed that gives the government unlimited authority to sic the military on American citizens not suspected or accused of ANYTHING and DETAIN THEM INDEFINITELY without the right to call a lawyer let alone have their case heard in a trial by jury.


All they need is a remote association with a "terrorist" the definitions of which include someone who has more than 7 days worth of food in their fridge. This is what our so called "free" country has become. Only 6 Senators voted against this outrageous piece of legislation! Lindsey Graham and Senator McCain helped draft it if I'm not mistaken.

It is time to WAKE UP South Carolina. Most of our elected officials are spineless or opportunists or crooks or all of the above! This could very well be our LAST CHANCE to regain FREEDOM!

Look at this very revealing clip of Mitt Romney dancing around a question by a potential South Carolinian voter about the amendment to the NDAA (the Indefinite Detention of Americans provision). He pretends he doesn't know about the amendment and then proceeds to say why he SUPPORTS the NDAA! OUTRAGEOUS! (The fact that Governor Haley supports him makes me sick to my stomach. After all, it was the Ron Paul supporters that were largely responsible for helping her get elected. Talk about FLIP FLOPPING and being opportunistic and taking advantage just to get elected. Haley should be supporting Ron Paul.

AT least Sen DeMint voted against it. There is HOPE for SC. Sen. DeMint also says (unlike Haley)"Republicans should listen to Ron Paul" http://thehill.com/blogs/blog-briefi...n-to-ron-paul-

The only SC Congressman that voted against it was Duncan. PRETTY SAD!

Sorry, but Ron Paul does not stand a chance getting elected.

In the primaries, sure. But then you have the general election. Romney, Gingrich, Perry, Santorum, all send the GOP into the meat grinder against obama.

Paul or Huntsman could maybe garner enough independents to beat Obama, though.

That's just my two cents.

I was just reviewing some of the polls cited in Real Clear Politics that Ron Paul is running in 4th place in the up-coming South Carolina GOP primaries.

I rarely ever agree with you, Ron Paul can unite people and this is proof

Romney is being pushed down our throats by the upper echelon GOP and the media .... plus the democrats want Romney too ... wonder why? There is no difference between Romney and Obama. A debate between Obama and Romney would be a disaster because Mitt's consultants helped design Obamacare on the basis of Romneycare! i just don't think Romney can defeat Obama.

The recent Peggie Hayes fiasco when Romney was a Bishop in his church really troubled me.
