SC Democrats Stick with Alvin Greene; Promote Lesbian Christian-Hater for Independent Run

South Carolina democrats heard Vic Rawl’s protest against Alvin Greene’s primary win earlier today. The part decided to keep Greene as their candidate in order to preserve the integrity of their primary process. Whatever integrity there might be in it.

In response, some staff members of Linda Ketner’s failed run for 1st Congressional district race in 2008 have begun a petition for Ketner to stage an independent run for the Senate.

Is Ketner a good candidate for south Carolina? In her 2008 Congressional run against Henry Brown, she ran as an openly gay Christian-hater, so yes, she is a splendid for for Bible Belt, South Carolina. There is nothing we like better than a progressive with utter disdain for Christianity.

Assuming her candidacy gets off the ground, voting for Jim DeMint will become a holy cause for some.

The fascinating part is what this reveals about the rank and file Democrats in South Carolina--they want anyone but the black guy, even in a race they are absolutely certain to lose.

If the party is trying to not look dumb in the eyes of the rest of the country, they are failing miserably.
