Mid-Day Round-Up In SC
In Upstate, where rain is expected to turn to snow later today, the AP reports that “polling officials around the state said they believed turnout in some areas was heavy early because of the forecasts.” Mauldin, SC (Greenville County), poll manager Marsha Christian: “We’ve been busy all morning. I think people are coming early because of the snow.”
And in Horry County (Myrtle Beach), Election Commission spokesman Chris Whitmire said that voters who were unable to use malfunctioning voting machines, could use “a napkin, a paper towel” to write the name of a candidate and put it in a ballot box.http://www.goupstate.com/article/20080119/NEWS/500221284/1051/NEWS01
The State reports low voter turnout at “a couple of the larger Lexington County precincts,” and frustrated voters who were “surprised to find their polling places closed.”
Mike Huckabee”created quite a scene” at a polling place in Richland County this morning, as “about 30 people, mostly media members crowded around Huckabee” and later “ blocked traffic as they followed Huckabee across the street, where he greeted campaign workers.”
John McCain “made an appearance” at West Ashley Middle School where he greeted “about three dozen supporters for 10 minutes.” http://www.thestate.com/presidential-politics/story/289878.html

Without a doubt, Huckabee is the most dishonest campaigner in either party. All the dirty tricks and lies that surrounded his campaigns in Arkansas have surfaced again in IA and SC.
Huckabee’’s only honest statement so far is that he “must have done something right” to be re-elected twice in a Democratic state. The “something right” that he did was running his office like a Democrat and his campaigns like a Clinton.

What ‘gall’? He’s signing a kid’s bible. And by the look on the boy’s face, he’s never going to forget it the rest of his life.
My older brother gave me a Bible for Christmas when we were kids. He signed it and I still have it. Most bibles have a dedication page for this purpose.
