FUNM. She’s no prize.
This is funny. The GOPe squishes like Scumbag McCarthy were all-in for Mace just 2 years ago, and frantically opposed her conservative primary opponent, Katie Arrington. Mace barely won without needing a runoff.
Arrington was also the GOP candidate in 2018 when she defeated corrupt incumbent stooge Mark Sanford. Sanford and the GOPe repeatedly backstabbed Arrington that year leading up to the general election, and as a result of that the Democrats (in a fluke) picked up the seat for 1 term before Mace won it in 2020.
Now here’s the funny part:
For nearly all of her career Mace has been a self-appointed posted child for GOPe “moderates” and she has often railed against the conservative wing of her own party.
But now SHE is suddenly the conservative — so far in 2024 she has been 100% reliably conservative on all key votes in the House. So NOW the establishment despises her, LOL.
Kevin McCarthy, Assistant Democrat.
I’ve been visiting South Carolina for a few weeks. The anti-Mace commercials and mailers have been unrelenting. One commercial chastises Mace for voting against a raise for Border Patrol agents. Of course, that was because she voted against an Omnibus bill.
For what it’s worth, some of the folks who live down here full time say that Mace’s turn rightward was concurrent with her ditching her staff, who reportedly were acolytes of McCarthy. They also say that Templeton is a disciple of Nikki Haley. Again, FWIW.
That a worm like Kevin McCarthy could have ever risen to be the Republican leader in the House says a lot about what is wrong with this party. (And of course the Turtle in the Senate.) No wonder so little is accomplished when the Repukes are in power.
Ditto X 1000.
She’s been supporting Trump big time.
She should have never won the last time.
SC is Trump Country except for the scum in the state and local political machine. How Arrington didn’t win is all about them using Democrats to crossover.
I have family living on the coast. I challenge anyone down there to say something nice about Graham. I’m sure some of the country club republicans on Hilton Head or in Charleston, but that’s about it.
Sadly, the state is being invaded by northern democrats, the locals despise them but the state and county clowns can’t say NO to over development
Mace will win easily.
And we should recognize her achievements as a legislator...for example, Nancy was awarded the "Milkers Of The Year Award" in 2022 for best rack in Congress!
