Gov. Haley wouldn't appoint a democRAT, would she??
I would like to see HECK NO! But...she is up for re-election as Gov. in 2014 and it looks like it will be a tough fight. She has low poll numbers (around 30%) and has many problems the Dems will hang like a millstone on her come election time (SC SSN being Hacked). There are already several strong Democrats stating they will run against her in 2014. So I guess it is possible if she wants to remain Gov. bad enough she could get the Strongest looking Dem. out of the way for the Gov. race.
