She has banned the confederate flag on government buildings right? Why would she have any support in SC anymore? Isn’t that a deal breaker even with GOPE voters? /serious questions

[immadashell]

GOPe is too stupid to get out of the rain. Republican type voters have had enough with turncoat office holders who got elected posing as Tea Party candidates only to defect after the election. Nikki Haley is the most prominent example.

Yeah...they all get together and yuk-yuk it up on our dime and they joke and laugh and drink and party.

They (Republican Establishment) just don’t get it, nor will they ever. They live their pampered, cloistered, second-tier power lives content in the fact that the Devil on the other side will always give them at least a lamb’s share of the golden pie.

All they have to do is appease, relent, submit, and lie to and cajole their constituents in a never ending barrage of utter lies laced with a smarmy marmalade of contempt when those pesky voters act out.

They are incapable of understanding the rage out in drive by America.

She outed herself as an establishment flunkie when she endorsed Willard back in 2008 when she was in the legislature, and she did it again in 2012.

Actually many of us here in SC loathe her.

[SkyPilot]

And she wonders why her approval numbers in South Carolina are dwindling.

The Confederate flag is racist. Trump is racist and angry. White men are racist. Immigrants must be welcomed! American history is racist! Southerners who honor their heritage are racist. Marco Rubio's lies about amnesty don't matter - I support him!

[MissEdie]

A lot of people in SC don't like her anymore. Her decision to politicize the Confederate battle flag offended many, especially since it came on the heels of the tragedy in Charleston.

I already knew that Haley was a Cheap Labor Express stooge, the surprise was that Tim Scott was, too.

The Confederate flag incident was the establishment indicator. Here again, the flag was just an innocent symbol. But people outside the state didn't realize the flag was not flying over the capital. Earlier it was agreed the flag would not fly over the capital building, but instead still be allowed to fly over a nearby Confederate memorial and cemetery. The black pastor killed in Charleston was one of the congressmen who voted FOR this compromise.

The flag Haley took down was the ultimate affront to the men lying in those graves that gave their lives for what that flag symbolized to them.

She re-wrote history...and I see little difference between this act and the Taliban blowing up symbols in the Middle East. This was a "typical liberal" move on her part to please the blacks and radical liberals, solidly identifying her as GOPe, the liberal wing if the Republican Party.

At the end of the day candidates must win on their record and on their ground game.

Palin did nothing to help Trump win Iowa or Alaska.
