You can add another name to the list of endorsements by Former Alaska Governor Sarah Palin. Today she endorsed Tim Scott for Congress on her Facebook page.
She said “ I’m very proud to add my support to Tim Scott’s campaign to represent South Carolina’s 1st congressional district. Tim has a remarkable success story. He grew up in poverty and was raised by a single-mom who struggled to provide.“
.......
Ok, who is Tim Scott?
Could someone post the facebook Palin link. I thought I had it but I’m not getting this in my news feed so it must have been an unofficial variety.
Google: Tim Scott South Carolina 1st district
Any polls out there which show that he has a chance?
The Club For Growth was behind Tim from the start.
Good. I saw him on Fox news about a month or so ago. He has a compelling story and is a good example of someone making it on his own by his wits. An American success story. I contributed to his campaign a few weeks ago.

Wow...
Palin is SOOOOOO awesome...especially in light of all the revelations of sexism and outright bigotry the ole-boys club of the SC GOP have been unveiling in light of Nikki Haley’s success. The way she’s been moving and shaking up the Party establishment is remarkable to witness...
What a captivating time in our nation’s political history!
Is Tim Scott a conservative or a RINO?
I imagine the thread-humper will be along any moment to tell us what to think....
This is a conservative it would seem.
