COLUMBIA — Gov. Nikki Haley, one of the most popular figures in the Republican Party, hasn’t decided if she will attend the Republican National Convention in July.

Haley said Monday she’s waiting until South Carolina’s 2016 legislative session ends four weeks from now before she decides whether she’ll take part July 18 to 21 in Cleveland.

“We’ve got time,” Haley said. “That’s not until July.”

If she skips the convention, Haley would be joining a growing list of Republican leaders who are opting out of attending — accentuating the deepening divide within the GOP as New York billionaire Donald Trump goes forward as the party’s presumptive presidential nominee.

Good. The more GOPe pukes who give us reason to ‘Cantor’ them, the better.

The GOP should cancel the convention all together and use the money to help elect republicans in congress. It will probably cost $100 million dollars. It is such a waste of money for a dog and pony show and the media will focus on the protest.

I think the party allows all past and current (GOP) governors, reps, senators, etc., to attend. "Dignitaries"

I wouldn't read much into Haley's remark. Trump is keeping her at arms length, for good reasons. She's tried to diminish him publicly, to no avail, and she is pondering how to continue in that vein.

You mean that Nikki Haley, who needed Sarah Palin’s endorsement to get her elected, the promptly stabbed Palin in the back?

Popular to whom?

Good point. I knew this was a BS article from the first sentence:”Gov. Nikki Haley, one of the most popular figures in the Republican Party....”

I hope this female Judas spends her July sailing alone through the Bermuda Triangle.

I suspect that Haley, Scott, Graham (or as trump calls him Grame) and Gowdy will meet for a good ol’ crying session.

By the way, that name Grame Trump has assigned to Lesley has a hidden meaning...Old English grame rage, anger, trouble and hostile. lol

Prominent, elected Republican officials who don’t go to the convention have no place in the new Republican Party. There is a Democrat party with your name all over it.
