Jim Clyburn has claimed that the Republicans put the guy on the ballot (planted), but don’t put it past Clyburn planting this guy himself. Sounds crazy, but I noticed that Clyburn actually had a primary Challenger? Very strange in that district, I lived in that district and it was gerrymandered in the 90’s and I don’t remember Clyburn having a primary challenger in a long, long time.
The guy got about 100k votes and Clyburn got 50K in the 6th district alone (I'll wager that everyone that voted for Clyburn voted for Alvin. Hummm, maybe Jim was getting worried and thought he needed an additional draw on the ballot. I don’t know why, as he got 90% of the vote in the primary, but don’t put it past this guy to throw the entire party under the bus to insure a victory in November ( I also noticed he might have a serious opponent for the General). If this guy stays in to the general in November you can bet Clyburn is really behind this move IMHO.
BTW Clyburn is from Sumter, SC which is very close to Manning, SC which is where Alvin Greene is from. Just seem curious to me.
Interesting. Well Greene is certainly causing a lot of consternation, headaches and heartburn. Put me down as one who doesn’t think he ponied up the entire $10,000.00 on his own. That’s a lot of bucks for an unemployed man. Hmm.
