You really think Barrett is on ‘our’ side?
There is more evidence that Haley is a Christian than Obama.
I’ve never seen Haley on TV talking about “her Sikh faith” or saying that Sikh prayers are her favorite sound -— nor have there been any foreign officials who state that she confessed she was Sikh.
Obama, on the other hand . .
Barrett's connection to Huckabee?

Barrett is a sleazebag scumball that should have resigned last Wed.
Next Tues, Nikki will kick him in the ass and beat him like the dog he is.
Seems to me, unless Barrett is planning on retiring from politics after his loss next week, that he should think long and hard before going down this road. Eventually he'll need votes from the folks he's pissing off now.
Attention all Aiken County area Freepers. There will be a "Rally for the Runoff" and ice cream social this Sunday from 2-4 in The Alley in downtown Aiken. Nikki will be there. I'm not sure about Alvin Greene :-)

Conservatives are very bad about tearing ourselves apart. There are those who seek the perfect candidate for them, for their particular values, and nothing else will do. They bash some very good conservatives who are not their candidate. Some encourage third party movements, a sure road to defeat for conservatives.
I suspect many are trolls from the Left attempting to sow dissent among us. Deception and infiltration is a Leftist MO.
I am not talking especially about those this post is addressed to, you just happened to be the first three I read. I am sure there are more I have yet to read.
