COLUMBIA, SC — THE GOOD THING about Brad Hutto is that he doesn’t try to convince us that Lindsey Graham is a liberal. Which is to say that, unlike the six opponents Mr. Graham easily swept aside in the Republican primary, and unlike the reality-show self-promoter who is self-financing a quixotic independent campaign against him, Mr. Hutto is not unhinged from reality.
To the contrary, Mr. Hutto has had a respectable career in the state Senate, where, despite being part of an ever-dwindling minority party, he has had a significant amount of influence on public policy — sometimes for good, sometimes for ill. But regardless of the result, he is someone who understands, like Mr. Graham, that government is about working with people with different points of view to come to a reasonable consensus. And this is probably the most important understanding that a lawmaker can have.
The bad thing about Mr. Hutto is that he wants to be a state senator. Well, that in itself might not be so bad, if he were content to remain in the state Senate. But he wants to replace Sen. Graham in the U.S. Senate, and his main complaint about the incumbent is that he keeps acting like … a U.S. senator.
It’s a bizarre state we live in, where governors and state legislators can’t seem to talk about anything but federal issues, and candidates for federal office think it’s wrong to talk about federal issues.
Fortunately, Mr. Graham understands that he is in fact a U.S. senator.

Which means what exactly? I mean being a US Senator. They were supposed to represent the states originally, but since they became directly elected, they seem to simply be troublemakers-at-large.
Remember, Columbia is the center of the Socialist/Communist axis in the state of South Carolina. That city is the reason that SC does not accept the concealed carry licenses of two neighboring states. If Columbia had its way, SC would be the California of the South.
And they will throw your ballot out. Only Democrat incomplete ballots are accepted, dontcha know.
Can they throw out a ballot if there is one or more “undervotes”? I didn’t know that and find it somewhat startling.

And the rest of us understand that he’s John McCain’s girlfriend.

Pathetic, SC. The US is stuck with this loser DemocRat RINO.
