A political blogger is claiming he had a "inappropriate physical relationship" with South Carolina Republican gubernatorial candidate Nikki Haley.

Haley has "categorically" denied the accusation by Will Folks, a former spokesman for Gov. Mark Sanford who now blogs and has done paid public relations work for politicians – including Haley.

"Several years ago, prior to my marriage, I had an inappropriate physical relationship with Nikki," Folks wrote on his site, FITSnews.com. "It is what it is, and aside from the Haley family – Michael, Nikki, Rena and Nalin – I feel no need to apologize or explain myself to anyone. People are human. We make mistakes."

In a statement, Haley denied an improper relationship.

“I have been 100 percent faithful to my husband throughout our 13 years of marriage,” Haley said in a statement sent via her campaign this morning. “This claim against me is categorically and totally false.

If it is false, sue him.

False or true why would some piece of crap person do this and then post a public blog about it? What an all around low life.

Better sue him.

No point.

After New York Times v. Sullivan it's almost impossible for a public figure to prove defamation. And a political candidate is by definition a public figure.

[ConservativeMind]

If he can’t prove it, he’s toast.

What an all around low life.

Absolutely agree.

[swain_forkbeard]

All he said was “inappropriate physical relationhsip”. Cagey. Could be anything.

“False or true why would some piece of crap person do this”

Because Haley has surged to the lead in the polls for the
GOP nomination for governor in SC. She is not part of the inner good old boy circle, thus she must be stopped at any cost.

Check the perp’s criminal record.

Hell he could have gotten a brush of elbow boob at an event to come up with “inappropriate physical relationship” He seems like a 3rd grade level kind of guy...

[70th Division]

Anyone that has seen this butt ugly guy knows that Nikki would not do him.

[End Times Sentinel]

I can see why he might be tempted to brag about it.

Will Folks is the man who made the accusation.


Here is a little background of the man. He was a former press secretary to Governor Mark Sanford and the president of Viewpolitik a public relations firm
