Reply #12: Its South Carolina!

...only Utah is more conservative. However South Carolina has a far more populist streak and that is why the Democratic party are not dead there as they effectively are in UT.

I do not agree with her, but I respect her views and on the economy she has a populist streak which is good and she has run a surprisingly strong campaign.

What Liberal northern democratic activist think shouldn’t really have an effect down south where most Democrats (black and white) are social conservatives and economic populists. She supported the War in Iraq well nearly all the Democrats in the senate did, she supports the constitutional amendment (I disagree, but its SC!), She supports the death penalty well so do many democrats including the likes of Howard Dean. In fact she’s pretty much as far to the left as a democrat could be in SC and she seems to be developing a populist message that is sounding very hopeful…

We are a broad party committed to social justice unlike the GOP and I would say there is plenty of room for Mrs Tennenbaum. And I think she’s a great asset to our party and I hope will get the opportunity to be the great Senator I think she will be if elected.
