5. You're delusional. Vic Rawl was SC's only hope at beating Demint.

6. We never had a real chance.
Enough people here still like DeMented to keep him in office. I doubt Vic Rawls could have beaten him, although he might have come close. Close enough that DeMented would steal it with those paperless electronic voting machine we have. (Which is how Greene "won" the primary.) So, now we have a choice between two crooks and a Green Party candidate. I know who I am voting for--if I'm still here.

27. At least you have the Green candidate.
I don't even get that choice with my Repub Congressman. No one runs against him, not even independents nor Greens.

24. Vic Rawl was the real deal
Greene was another black box voting success story.

8. Did they mention what the charges were?
Or even what they related to?

Or has that been covered at some point and I missed it? :shrug:

13. Oh right, I had forgotten about that!
This has been a fishy-smelling story from the get-go. Hopefully he'll be under oath and some point and admit that this "candidacy" was all a scam, and name a name or two.

14. Steal an election?
This is how you do it. Don't program the machines to vote for your guy, program them to nominate a completely ridiculous alternative to your worthy opponent.

28. If I were in SC I would vote for Greene anyway if
he's on the ballot. It would make a statement about what seems to be an election stolen with tricks and should Greene win and be in prison, it will make a sticky problem for the Democrats that they will have to solve somehow.

on the democratic party to make them look like dumbfucking idiots, and it looks like it worked perfectly.
