SCGOP Chairman says Republicans will be united, stronger than ever
COLUMBIA, S.C. – The South Carolina Republican Party today announced a full slate of candidates for United States House of Representatives for the third consecutive election cycle and announced Republican candidates for the office of Solicitor in all but one judicial circuit on the ballot. United States Senator Lindsey Graham and Buddy Witherspoon filed as candidates in the Republican primary for United States Senate.
“Republicans in South Carolina today took a big step towards victory,” said South Carolina Republican Party Chairman Katon Dawson. “South Carolina Democrats are proving themselves to be long on rhetoric and short on real solutions just like their party leaders Sens. Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton – two of the U.S. Senate’s most liberal members. With John McCain at the top of our ticket and a full slate of terrific Republican candidates, we will be stronger and more united than ever heading into November’s general election.”

It is my hope that Dr. Buddy will defeat Lindsey for the Senate. We need to send Jim DeMint some help.
