The story of course is about Alvin Greene and how he won a Democratic primary to challenge for the office of Senator in South Carolina.
The biggest problem for the party is that he isn't the guy that they endorsed. Also he managed to win over their approved candidate without having any money, having any fund-raising, without doing more than apparently campaigning in true door to door fashion.
This of course presents a problem because.... well because they don't own him lock, stock and barrel and of course it means someone did something other than what was centrally planned.
The Democratic party officials have responded in a fashion typical for such an outrageous outcome, and by outrageous we mean it wasn't the one they desired.
1. Greene must have been a plant.
The claim is that Green must have been a very sneaky, and by sneaky we mean really uppity, black man who was actually placed there by Republicans. The proof of this is the reasoning of course that all black people do whatever the Democratic party officials tell them to do and since they didn't tell them to do this... it must be a plant!
2. Greene is a very scary and of course SEXUAL black man who will rape your daughters.
There is an allegation that Greene showed a college age woman a computer screen that had a pornographic website on it. Even if this were 100% true, should it even be a crime?
3. Those darn voting machines have shown.... irregularities. The favorite fun word every time a Democrat doesn't get the result they like. There are convenient proxies who swear the machines did just the opposite of what they wanted and it wasn't worth noticing, until Greene won.
4. Finally the issue comes down to paperwork and money. Greene apparently shouldn't have any and couldn't have any so no matter how he won, he can't really run. They'll find some 'i' that wasn't dotted or some 't' that wasn't crossed and will declare this proof of... well something I guess.
I think the Democrats are burning some serious bridges here. When everyone who disagrees with them is a violent, hateful bigot, when every result that isn't to their liking is a plant, proof of voter fraud, or of course proof of hate via sexual violence aka sexism, then what they heck do they have left?
I couldn't tell you whether I would vote for Greene. However the man himself is not without sound credential for running for office. He has a degree in Political Science. He has an honorable discharge for having served in the U.S. Army and Air Force. Why shouldn't he be given a chance?
