Well I won't judge the man's intelligence based on how well of a public speaker he is. However it sure is hard to get elected to office when you can't get your ideas out to the public. This does not seem possible in this day and age.
When the spirit is not altogether slain, great loss teaches men and women to desire greatly, both for themselves and for others.

LMAO. This guy is both good and bad at the same time. People think he was planted by the Republicans so they could get a free win. I mean, he is obviously a bit ignorant, but at least he admits when he doesn't know something. Wikipedia said he claimed he needed to know more about free trade before supporting it fully.

Hmm, the times are hard now, I can't get a job now after the military and I don't really know what to do. Hey, there is an upcoming election here, I wonder...

He's the best he's the worst!

He will succeed because no one will be able to form an opinion on him because there is no precedent. He simply isn't playing the game.


I agree with intothewannab, just because he doesn't have the Obama Charm or Hitler's Frenzy doesn't make him an idiot, just shy.

This makes me want to move to South Carolina. At least you know he's honest. That's a lot to offer, imo.
Please PM me with any songs you like that you think I haven't heard before!

I think his "dont speak unless spoken to" type of thing probably comes from being in the military since he was 19.

That's almost half his life, and all of his adult life.

I'd vote for him.

Comes across as the most honest politician ever. I fear in his seeming ignorance he will be easy to manipulate.

He's also in trouble with the law for showing pornography to younger people.

The reason he won seems obvious tho. My understanding is that he ran against a Judge who wasn't very well known either. His name ends with a G and his opponent with an R. If you have ignorance on both then most people will vote for the first name on the list and that is likely what happened here.

The Democratic party has asked him to back out but he refuses.

Uh... the Dems actually asked him to step down. Where did you get that he refused?

The way you phrased the porn thing makes it sound like he was showing it to minors. He showed it to a university student and then asked her to go back to a room.

This man is an inspiration. How many teens and 20 year olds currently live with their parents and are unemployed? He gives hope to all of us. Maybe one day if we work hard, get our message to our supporters and.. *shake head, mumble mumble* we too can win a democratic primary.

I'd say only in SC. When every politician has a sex scandal attached to them, it lowers the bar considerably for the rest of the hopefuls

Well to be honest I have to agree with what a lot of people in this thread have said before me. He seems more honest than most other politicians combined.

Also, if this guy won, how bad was Vic Rawl at campaining if he actually spent a lot of money and still managed to lose?

Isn't winning the democratic primary in SC kind of a moot point anyway?

99% of the time I hear people complaining that the candidates are all the same old dried up men, and the moment some maverick shows up people are like wtf? This'll be interesting to see how it pans out. One thing I am curious about is he kept on referring to his message, but never said exactly what it is other than that he can relate to the people.

As a unserious side comment, it's not like this guy needs campaign money, he is going to get plenty of publicity regardless.
