Maybe he's the Dem's version of the Repub's Joe the Plumber.

What better time for one to enter politics. The opportunity is here, folks. Unemployed? Behind in taxes? No marketable skills? Looking for a career move? Now is the time.

so, the repubs got 60% of the voters to join in this conspiracy?
And you call me nuts?

**DamnYankee** · 06-18-2010, 10:12 AM

What percent of the black vote did the black man get?. He could be the next Obama.

There's lots of weird shit about this election that makes it smell a little fishy, but the thing I keep coming back to is that there is no chance in hell that either candidate was going to beat DeMint. There's just no reason to commit a variety of felonies to protect a candidate that's a shoo-in. Now, if it turns out that DeMint gets down like S.C. governors and gubernatorial candidates and their are pictures of it or something, maybe I'll believe in a conspiracy.

For now, there's no motive to do it, unless of course, the purpose was to see if an election could be rigged and this was a small scale test for a larger endeavor.

This is a highly questionable claim. Most Republicans who cared about the state of the South Carolina GOP were participating in the hotly contested gubernatorial primary.

The GOP primary attracted much more turnout. Probably more Dems voted in the GOP primary than Republicans voted in the Dems.

I'm not crying over anything. In fact, I couldn't care less about the primary election where whomever were to run against DeMint was destined to lose.

There is enough weird shit involved in the primary, though, to warrant an investigation by election officials, not the Democratic Party.

I'm sure that if you think about for just a short while you'll manage to figure it out.

You should explain it, since it's your assertion. I tried to imagine how a word describing a process to buff shoes is racist, but I'm not a retarded liberal race-baiter, so I need your help.

Explain your ridiculous statement, idiot
