Topic: Meadors versus Bryant

Art, congratulations!You got your own byline.... sort of.

DumbBuddy will not report accurately about a Democrat, he might lose some of his hate-radio callers. The same six who call Rick Driver; Rodney, Charles, Tom, Bennie Sue, Rick Freesomething, Peggy and some guy with marbles in his mouth.

Hey Art:

If you do what the radio folks do, "sell your own time" you too could have a talk radio show. All you need are six callers and a line of bull.

Dune-buggy and Republikin,

This is not the kind of dialogue I was expecting for this thread. However, I do admit, it is funny.

All in fun, all in fun.

Kevin Bryant is a good guy, even though I disagree with him on things like public education/tax credits. I think he sincerely believes what he does.

That said, he faces what any incumbent faces this election year: the general feeling of angst among the voters. People want something different. Bryant is blessed with a good traditionally Republican base, but he will have to show that his brand of Republican politics is for a change and progress. (liberals do not own that word)

Do not be shocked if the GOP hits Bryant's opponent hard on two issues: abortion and gay marriage.

The race is Bryant's to lose. Don't despair lefties, Bryant is an honest man. That is a lot in today's politics.

This is somehow fitting . . .

The behavior of current Sen. Bryant over the last several weeks have shown me at least that he is neither a "good guy" and quite possibly not a very "honest" one either. My decision to cross party lines to support and vote for his opponent was made without hesitation. If his support of the censure of MacKay and of Waldrep's filthy negative campaign are any indication of the way he conducts himself then he has sunk to a new low as will I'm sure his campaign over the next several months. My perception of him is quite like the perception many have of Joey Preston, arrogant and in your face.

Everyone forgive me. I don'tmean to hijack or distractthis thread, butthe subject I'm about to raise doesn't rate a separate thread. so I'll just get this off my chest and move on. thanks for your indulgence in advance.
Joey PReston has been promoted to colonel in the SC State Guard and he has the balls to be proud of it. there has been no bigger joke or greater insult to any real member of the military since Bill "Going to Viet Nam would hurt my political future" Clinton was actually commander in chief.As we approach the Fourth Of July, for this pencil pushing, favor doing, influence wielding suck up recieve such a rank is too rank for me.
To the real fighting men and women of this county, state and nation, thank you for your sacrifices and service. To Mr. Preston, who mocks them by his actions, you embarass yourself, sir.If you were capable of shame, this would be an excellent time for it.

My biggest beef with Bryant is his blind loyalty to our failed two-term lame duck Governor, as well as his apparent disregard for women's rights. Sanford has not been a consensus builder in his 6 years in Columbia. Instead, he squandered his Republican Party's 6 years of dominance in Columbia by keeping in-fighting stirred between himself and the legislature and within the legislature. And Kevin's hanging up there with him like a polyp. Indeed, look at Kevin's role in the dirty run-off campaign last week. The better way to work for your constituents is to develop and maintain relationships, not be a political warlord. Kevin is an INEFFECTIVE ideologue. My other beef with Kevin is his abyssmal record on women's issues. I am a father of daughters. I am very opposed to abortion but I resent Kevin's knuckleheaded and insensitive bill last year requiring already emotionally-wrenched women to view ultrasounds before aborting pregancies. Kevin creates strife in the Republican Party, he does not look after the interests of women (more than 50 percent of his constituents are women) and he's accomplished nothing of note in 4 years in Columbia. Thanks for your time Kevin, but we need a Senator instead of a do-nothing ideologue, and I pray that we'll finally get one in November.
