The Gresham Barrett Press Office has announced:
Beginning today, our campaign will highlight an honest issue difference each morning between Gresham Barrett and Nikki Haley. Today’s issue is: Protecting Life.
If today's "difference" is the best they can do we the people will not learn very much. The first morning release contains links from prolife groups that rate his prolife record in Congress at 100% and then compares that to two votes Nikki Haley made on a very arcane issue concerning an amendment to an SC law requiring 24 hour notification before an abortion. Somehow they forgot to mention that LIFEPAC which is the SC Citizens for Life PAC said:
“In the statewide Republican Primary Elections, LIFEPAC, the statewide political action committee of South Carolina Citizens for Life, is pleased with the contenders’ pro-life surveys, voting records, and other credentials. If you want more information about the candidates on other issues, to link to their websites, or for contact information, see www.scvotes.org”.
Presumably this is only the first of many misleading or out of context charges that will be made under the heading of honest differences by the Barrett campaign. These pathetic claims are not worthy of a man that most of us including myself have supported and voted for during the years he has been in congress.
I chose to support Nikki Haley from the very beginning of this campaign. She has demonstrated her leadership abilities and backbone in bucking the too long entrenched establishment in the South Carolina House and Senate. South Carolina government desperately needs changing and I believe she is the only candidate who can bring it about.
Please vote for Nikki Haley in the runoff on June 22nd.
