WELCOME! Good to have you here.


You have power. Use it wisely. Make it matter.

At Lucy Left you're encouraged to leave comments, keeping this request in mind: Say what you mean and mean what you say, just don't say it mean. Lucy's not a fan of vitriol. This is a place to find information and opinion, a place to have a laugh now and then and to feel less alone in the political madness.

Be well, speak up for what is right and true (even if your voice shakes), and come back soon!

"Rising Star" - Really?

http://nikkihaleyfacts.com/


Okay, so much for cable news talking heads touting Nikki Haley as a "rising star."  She's popular with the Tea Partyites, for sure.  Not so much with South Carolinians who have been poorly served by her sad excuse for leadership.  

 

Louisiana governor Bobby Jindal, Texas governor Rick Perry, and Wisconsin governor Scott Walker visited Greenville, South Carolina earlier this week.  They came to stand by Governor Haley as she announced her intention to seek a second term—and likely to get camera time for their own purposes here in S.C.  The crowd estimate was in the high sixties.  I imagine that count included all the protesters in attendance.  A sad showing of Haley fans and no State officials there to stand with her.  Haley-appointed Senator Tim Scott was the only S. C. dignitary I spotted in the photos.

 

Anyway, the S. C. Democratic Party will highlight facts about Governor Haley and her first term at the site linked above.   The "rising star" label might be traded in for something more accurate if the national media consults that site periodically.
