Sorry I was not impressed. I hope she improves her presentation. Time will tell. I was hoping she was a Ted Cruz.

Truly don’t know why you posted this to me. But to clarify:
If you are implying I’m a cheerleader for any particular candiate, you are mistaken. I’ve simply noted that Nancy Mace is getting maligned on FR and that I’ve noticed that she has not been shown the same treatment on FR threads that posters have given to Lee Bright or Richard Cash, both of whom I know.

“Glenn Beck interviewed Nancy Mace this morning and she appeared as qualified as Carolyn Kennedy.”

Bullshit

I listened to the entire interview and heard a rock solid constitutional conservative fluently and confidently handle rambling, long winded questions from Beck, and idiot questions from Beck's tedious side kick.

She was very careful in how she answered the questions showing message discipline and precise use of the English language.

She also knew exactly which conservative Senators are actually fighting Obamacare and Amnesty and correctly pointed out that the rule of law and the Constitution are the fundamental principles of US conservative politics.

She was flawless on the foreign policy issue raised, deflecting Beck's trap perfectly. Many US politicians cannot do that without being tipped off in advance what the questions are.

What we have with Nancy Mace is a Steel Butterfly, one that will be immune to the peer pressure of Creepy Washington “society.”

As a Woman, she is also inherently more resistant to attacks from the PRISM Data warehouse mining operation being run by communists/GOPe Quislings infiltrated into NSA and the political class.

South Carolina is a 50%+ winner or run off race. Dewhurst had a lot more money and lying consultant vermin in Texas than graham does, and he still lost in a run off simply because more casual voters cannot be bothered to vote a second time.

OK the race is also a open primary, but with a wide field it is quite possible Graham will still fail to get over 50%.

Lot what a endorsement from Sarah Palin did for Ted Cruz, and imagine what one could do for Nancy Mace.

You make nice points and I sincerely appreciate your passion, but we disagree completely on what occurred during that interview.

What is your opinion of her performance on Cavuto?

Someone just evoked Trey Gowdy.

Now, that is a serious candidate that I could trust.

He always asks that question and Ted Cruz’s answer was profound.

You can tell a good deal about a person when you ask them questions that determine if they have truly contemplated their life and their purpose. Objective introspection is a highly undervalued concept.

What was Mace’s answer again?

“Could Lindsey pull a Murkowski and run anyway even if he loses the primary?”

You, man, just predicted the one thing that I am afraid of. I like to think that he would lose anyway, but he might cause a Democrat win.

I don’t think that Lindsay cares as much for the Party, or the state, as he does for his maintenance of power.

Don't know. Tuned into something else. If find that the question is unanswerable.

Splitting the vote...just saying

And it's been said for time immemorial whenever a liberal registered as a Republican faces a challenge from a principled conservative. Other than the fact that the simplistic statement is full of fallacies and naive assumptions, it has been said so many times it doesn't need to be said any more.

Beware! In TN Corker managed to win because Conservatives split the vote in the primary.

The more people in the primary reduce Pansy's odds of getting 51%of the primary vote. This is a good thing.

I believe SC, unlike AK, has a sore-loser law that keeps a primary loser out of a general election.

Those ratings are rigged and have been probably since 1990. Lawmakers are informed in advance what will be scored, and usually it is some procedural thing that allows representatives to vote “conservative” on easy things that don’t matter.

She holds the same low opinion of graham that we all do.

I'm not sure that is true; is she like Lindsey tied to McPain?

I'm kinda' half thinking that there has GOT to be a Lindsay Graham US Senate aide walking out of a gay bar SOMEWHERE half-drunk, with his mouth in overdrive, and willing to spill the beans on their polling "internals", i.e. which of the current crop of S.C. GOP primary challengers they most prefer to to up against? Then, don't support that person and go for whom they fear the most, provided of course that person himself or herself is also not a RINO. Just thinkin. (But then again, who wants to go near any D.C. gay bar with drunk Grahamnesty assistants sauntering out???) Hazard pay for sure.
