He takes the Lt Gov spot and moves up to Gov when Nikki goes.

I have a feeling that state employees will be saying that with gusto after any indictment. May it be so. Not that McConnell would be any sort of a prize as Governor...

Nikki Haley and Scott Walker need to go hiking along the Appalachian trail for a couple of weeks. Then they can both retire and seek employment as ex-gov washout pundits at faux news and everybody is happy!

...I'd expect them on K street after they leave office.

Remember those four words we so desperately need to have repeated and echoed throughout the media star chambers: MEANINGFUL CAMPAIGN FINANCE REFORM. It's the only way we can ensure that crooks like this gruesome twosome stay unemployed.

Or in other words....until an indictment has been issued you all shouldnt get your hopes up and even if the rumor is true an indictment isnt a conviction.

I can't find very much on the Internet to establish this as much more than a rumor. Supposedly Haley is being investigated for tax fraud regarding her improper management of her father's Sikh worship center. But the information is very sketchy. If anyone has details, I'd appreciate reading about it as this would be a rare treat, if true.

South Carolina Gov. Nikki Haley was never the subject of an Internal Revenue Service investigation into a worship center her family helps run, according to a letter released by the IRS Friday.


“As we said from the very beginning, there was not an ounce of truth to any of these accusations — they were totally contrived, totally false, brought by unaccountable bloggers,” said Rob Godfrey, a spokesman for Haley.
