Nikki Haley

Attention on deck. Tomorrow is December 31st. We need Nikki Haley to make a really good showing in her financial disclosures. Give what you can. Consider alarm bells going off. The RedState community has been very generous in the past. I know a lot of you are fixated on other races. But I cannot stress enough the importance of this race. Yeah, yeah, it’s South Carolina.

And Nikki Haley fights for freedom.” I would normally put up a post at this time of year with several candidates you might want to give money to.

I get calls and emails all the time asking, “Erick, what can we do to take back the party and...

Mark Sanford was being charged with 37 ethics violations, the woman who wants his job spoke of restoring public pride in her home state.That's an ambitious goal for anyone at a time when South Carolina seems bent on providing comedy routines for the rest of the nation, but especially so for a minority woman in a six-way Republican primary...
