Do you live in South Carolina? If so, delurk and help us start getting a handle on the state
The next two days are going to be nonstop busy for us — and most people in the political world — but we want to start meeting people who live in South Carolina who could potentially help us with the mystery of why so many people seem to think things Obama did in the leadup to the 2008 South Carolina Democrat primary will be the end of his presidency…and could even put him in prison.
Apparently, this is all centered around rural South Carolina.
We know almost nothing about the state and need to make allies on the ground there…people who could write regular reports on the politics of the state for us, and who could also become friends who’d help us identify people to interview who would know scoop on the 2008 Democrat primaries in particular.
We’re going all-in on this mystery…but we need help. We just don’t, currently, have many South Carolina connections. We need introductions to the people who have the information we need. We have to find good sources in the state.
Through six degrees of separation, we know that all of you reading this could in some way direct us to people and information in South Carolina that would blow this mystery wide-open.
So, keep chiming in on these threads about South Carolina to tell us what you know about the state…and email us personal introductions if you are someone who wants to help, and could be an anonymous and protected source for us in our investigation.
We’re willing to take all the heat for digging into things we were told specifically not to dig into…but we can’t dig very far without your intel.
So, help us get started: HillBuzz@gmail.com

One number the left can change only at the margin, however, is the number that shows up on the tallied ballots Tuesday. That number is beyond their grubby fingers.
Here is a link to a local Nor Cali blog site that picks up on your Carolina story and maybe adds some additional info for you. http://www.uncoverage.net/south-carolina-vote-fraud-obamadrama/
hmmm… I see someone has read my new blog!!!
Everyday
I wish I had read this thread. I just sent this to the boyz.
Kevin,
In your first report about South Carolina, you stated that “political operatives have suddenly gained massive renewed interest in the 2008 South Carolina Democrat primary.” Are these operatives from the Democratic side?
Michelle posted this link on the Open Thread. It highlights many issues.
http://jbjd.org/2010/10/31/clyburn-obama-quid-pro-quo/
Just clicked over and read this. It makes you want to scream — and then vomit. This needs to be spread around. I intend to cross post this to other sites.
This could also explain why the media slam of Joe Miller in Alaska will be tolerated, and why the Delaware stations “forgetting” to air Christine O Donnells 30 minute ads will be tolerated.
The most rural area in SC, IMO, is around Florence towards Columbia. Cotton, soybeans, etc. There are peaches grown along hwy 85 in the Upstate, but I doubt that these orchards represent the farmers you might be interested in. LIke everywhere, there are a lot fewer farms than there used to be. A list of Pigford recipients might be a way to get started.
If there’s something rotten in SC on a national level, it would have to be Clyburn. Keep in mind that his daughter is a big shot at the FCC, with an eye to censor everybody.
Now walk back the cat, Kevin.
This is about voting machines. I was astonished myself at the extent of Hillary’s loss.
Imagine enormous fraud, centered around pre-programmed results from machines that were placed in rotten boroughs in heavily black precincts.
Throw in the New Black Panther Party as muscle and ACORN as the organizational talent. You can begin to divine why Holder decided to end the investigation into the New Black Panther Party. The Panthers keep the Election Observers out. ACORN, directed by OFA, does the tactical work. OFA directs which precincts are to be scammed. ACORN is the vital link in the chain, methinks.
OFA screams “racism” to throw anyone off the scent of the story. There are, after all, still some honest journalists out there. A few. A very few.
This is where this is going, methinks.
By the way, don’t be distracted by the Pigford program. Obama did extremely well in urban areas and among white urban South Carolinians.
Question for you: analyze voting patterns from white districts that went heavily Obama.
Black voters were voting for the Home Team. That should be no surprise. Were there abnormalities in the white and hispanic vote, especially among the working and middle classes?
I think that is a good question to ask.
Also, I agree that for the time being Pigford is a bit of a wrong tangent.
I think it is related to the voting machines… and yes I am a foreigner.
Kevin, that’s where we need to look..voting patterns, abnormalities. The panthers stood outside the polls here in Philly with a club, like it was the ‘new norm’ surprised people whipped out phones and called them on it.
And the machines, of course, play a big part. They can do all this not worried about Holder..this is where the is,is
I’m assuming presidential primaries are conducted just as Senate primaries. Check this out on the Alvin Greene “landslide” win in the Dem primary in June:
http://markcrispinmiller.com/2010/07/new-evidence-that-alvin-greenes-win-in-sc-was-stolen/
Something wicked this way comes, and it’s coming from SC.
Alvin Greene.
And also Soros has his AG thing going on..THEY control
vote counts in every state.
Step back, look at the big picture, they have everything covered for the RESULTS they want…bad smell coming off all this, don’t cha think?
And I think the money for all of this comes from Pigford. O has been practically broadcasting what went down here in his “strategy” this cycle:
1) Frame the opponent as your enemy (whites v. blacks).
2) Take out the Justice Dept. by sending them in against anyone who tries to stop the fraud.
3) Scream racism to throw those off who might figure something out.
4) Flood the zone with money.
My question centers on Alvin Greene. Who voted for him and why? Asking that question might yield some interesting info considering no one knew him prior to his winning, he had no website or commercials. Were the machines set for him to win to see how it would work?
Personally I think all of this loopy stuff in SC connects. The question is how.
Also money through the nearly $100,000,000 unaccounted for in dollars Clyburn got for his alma mater, SCSU, a historically black college. Feds demanded an audit. Results were supposed to have been released late Sept., but not sure what came of that.
As a Southerner my humble advice if you’re headed to South Carolina is not to tell people you’re from Chicago. No offense intended, but Chicago has some negative connotations, especially after 2008. If you must, tell them you’re from New Hampshire or Maine or some other innocuous place. Southerners are unfailingly polite, but they are also distrustful of outsiders since they know they are perceived as less intelligent, sophisticated, etc. by some Northerners. I’m not being flippant or condescending when I say that, if you want to gain their trust, you must show them respect. Respect is probably the most important and essential tool you can take with you.
As a South Carolinian, I concur with Portia; however, we are much more amenable to midwesterners than New Englanders due to an influx of New Yorkers/ New Jersey-ites to the coast in the past 10 years. I wouldn’t say I was from Chicago but maybe Iowa or Nebraska.
How about Rockford. About 90 travel miles from Chicago – so a knowledge of Chicago would not be out of place.
Rockford is a town of 150,000 in the middle of farm country.
How about Indiana, or central Ohio? Then you won’t have to disguise the mid-western accent.
No.
Do not lie.
If we expect to reveal the dishonesty of the left, we have to set high standards ourselves and live up to them.
If you don’t want to mention Chicago, just say, “I grew up in _____ ,” or “I’m originally from _______.”
Lies are not necessary.
I agree … and Kevin’s from Cleveland, which is a great place to be from … never ever lie … and besides, Kevin, on a one-to-one, can win over anyone …
Agree. Don’t try to fib about origins. A lot of us in the South are regular Henry Higgins when it comes to accents–and we even know the difference between various southern accents. The Mountain Twang, the Lowcountry Rosalind, The Tidewattah drowl…
Granted, we don’t like a lot of accents, but we’ve gotten used to them. Better to say–”I’m conservative.”
I’m from NY – and living in the ATL (was in north carolina before this). My FIL is from memphis. And I can totally and completely tell differences in southern accents. It’s very apparent. I can’t always pinpoint where someone is from, but I can tell when they’re from ‘somewhere else.’ This was completely apparent to me when I was in NC and interviewing in Atlanta and memphis. They were all so different.
but so many people up north just dismiss those ‘southerners’ as sounding stupid (um, listen to that NY accent some time) – and think ‘they all sound the same.’ Which is … not the nicest way to talk about anyone.
Hey Y’all,
You don’t need a special birth certificate to merit good Southern hospitality; we give it because of who WE are not because of who YOU are.
That politeness doesn’t go away in the face of rudeness, it will only increase, but a subtle wall will go up and there will be no more trust or cooperation. The problem arises in the definition of ‘rudeness’. (This Southern gal has worked all over these United States and is married to another one of those good hearted Chicago boys).
So follow these rules when in the South:
*Don’t get in a hurry.
*Be courteous.
*Be complimentary.
*Learn how to accept a compliment.(Don’t accuse the person of insincerity)
*Smile, it won’t kill you. Be friendly. And make eye-contact. It aint New Yawk. The merit of a person is sometimes measured in a steady gaze.
As you can see the differing social rules are the reasons for misunderstandings and mistrust.
Good luck with your investigation. Hope this helps.
How about these:
*Wave at EVERYONE
*Look all around you as you go about your business so you don’t miss anyone and thus offend by not greeting
*Remember: taking time to talk to people is very important. Story telling (truthful) especially silly stories about yourself are great.
*Talking and listening time is especially important with African Americans
*Understand that as a northerner you are considered a Yankee (I was and I’m from Indiana and thought the Yankees –as in doodle dandys–were Boston folks)
*Read the local papers so you will be able to respond to questions and comment on local issues, i.e. farming, schools, etc.
*KNow that whatever you say in a small town will get around to everyone. Of course, not always in the original form, so be always cautious.
We live in SC,,,and several weeks ago noticed that the Dem running for Attorney General had ads on in almost every commercial cycle..Discussed why so much money being put into AG race, and where is it coming from. Now I think we know why, but the who is the big question. It is definitely someone with deep pockets
We live in S. C. and noticed that for several weeks the Dem Attorney General candidate has an ad almost every commercial cycle. Couldn’t figure out who would be paying for these ads,or why. They must cost in the hundreds of thousands. Now I think we know the why, but still don’t know the who.

Kevin, you are so right that it is ALL ABOUT RACE. I’ve just been reading David Horowitz’s latest booklet, “Breaking the System: Obama’s Strategy for Change.” It is a MUST-READ.
http://frontpagemag.com/
I’m sitting here, page after page, going “HOLY F*&#ING SH*T!” I thought I was pretty well-informed about Alinsky, Cloward-Piven, ACORN, Project Vote, Fannie and Freddie, etc, etc—and even I am learning new things, an “aha!” moment on every page. And the dynamic driving the whole thing: the “RAAACIST” card, used to intimidate every politician in Washington into going silently along with criminality and lunacy. And in the center, at the nexus of it all: Barack Obama.
Thanks for the tip … I’ll order it asap … I just ordered Stanley Kurtz’s new book — “Radical-in-Chief: Barack Obama and the Untold Story of American Socialism” …
http://www.amazon.com/Radical-Chief-Barack-American-Socialism/dp/1439155089
His interview with National Review Online about the book was fascinating …
http://www.nationalreview.com/articles/251245/radical-white-house-interview
I just read that book. It’s a must read. I never knew about the Midwest Academy and stealth socialism.
Try contacting Jeff Schreiber at his blog http://americasright.com/
He’s a reformed liberal and lawyer in Charleston, South Carolina.
Correction to the above comment
Soros has bought the Sec of State positions, not AG’s..anyway, he’s deeply involved in Crime-Inc. Clyburn’s got to be knee deep in this crap, too.
I’m in SC. However, I don’t know much about the left in this state, other than they play dirty. I’ve always been more right-leaning and paid more attention to that side.
There is something very wrong with the Dem machine – Alvin Greene is an example of this. One thing – the black vote in this state is crucial to the democrats.
But, if you need people with contacts and might be willing to jump on these stories – maybe start looking at SC Political bloggers. I’ll work on a list and try to get it to y’all…
I usually lurk here – but if my state can help bring down this regime, then that gets me excited! And if you find yourself in the Lowcountry… we’d love to meet you!
This is all quite fascinating. Any chance that company that runs the voting machines, print-outs, etc. in NC and SC are the same ones operating the ones in Nevada and other places that were recording the same types of problems?
I was wondering about the Virginia primary, too. I wasn’t paying too much attention at the time, but it seems to me that Obama had a huge win here that I just did not expect. We have open primaries and when I went to vote my friend was working the polls and she said there were more Dem voters that day than Republican. We live in a pretty reliably conservative precinct, so I was a bit surprised by that, but I thought it might be some of that Rush Limbaugh Operation Chaos stuff going on. But when the returns came in I think it was very big in Obama’s favor, but I can’t be positive that I remember correctly. I do remember it was a head-shaking result. We have the touch screen voting machines, which make me nervous because I don’t see how you can be sure of anything.
Why you can’t be sure of voting machines:
http://cm.bell-labs.com/who/ken/trust.html
and the ones in GA too?
Alvin Greene.
I live in SC, and I’m VERY interested in helping with this. What you are saying, though I haven’t read the earlier posts yet, does not surprise me a bit.
I’m a Democrat, was very involved with the anti-war movement in college but have gone more center-left with strong libertarian (or non-authoritarian) leanings. First and foremost, though I am a patriot. I was tuned into the whole a “PUMA” thing during the primaries. That’s how I first learned of how dangerous Obama really is from the blogs supporting Hillary in 08, mostly via the Steve Diamond posts.
The SEIU, ACORN and the Ayers interests are absolute poison for the party and for America. So in Obama. I will help you any way I can.
Just moved here from the corrupt state of CT. It is interesting to see all the conservatives who live here in the burbs. I’ve never been in the majority as I am here. I was pro Hillary until my eyes were open and as long as there is breath in my body I will vote REPUBLICAN/Liberatarian forever.
The Chas. area is very pro O–driving their Priuses with the bumper sticker on back to Whole Foods,wear their organic bamboo shirts and carrying their recycled bags into the store. (Yes, conservation,less trash important but they’re so smug.) An interesting dynamic here,because there is so much white guilt. There are reminders of the Old South everywhere as they are quite the historians…any chance there is to drudge up the past, they do.
If you come here they are very welcoming. It’s like stepping back in time 30 years(in a good way) when life was good and people were decent,hardworking, churchgoing, and Godfearing people more than willing to help their neighbor.
Wish you luck.
LOL – yes the Whole Foods parking lot is still full of Priuses with their Obama/Biden stickers. You should see the looks I get there with my Gadsden Flag and Charleston Tea Party bumperstickers. They are very much in the minority, thankfully! Welcome – I’m a refugee from NYC!
Total speculation but could it be somebody sympathetic to Hillary rigged the voting machines in democratic Senate primary to have Alving Greene win by huge margins to prove how easy it is to do and hopefully trigger an investigation by reporters.
