Who is Sanford going to endorse?
Is SC Governor Mark Sanford going to endorse Ron Paul? This would be a great boost for Ron because Sanford is popular. I just got my real estate bill and it was over 40% less then last year with plans to reduce residential taxes to 0%.
I am e mailing Gov Sanford today and asking him to endorse Ron Paul. All SC residents please do the same today.
I would say Fred will lose support once Romney starts exposing him especially on gun rights. SC is big on the 2nd amendment. This will drive Fred Heads to Ron Paul.
I think Romney will expose the Huckster in Iowa and that exposure will spill over to SC and reduce his effect.
Lets hit the streets and do all we can. SC is ripe for a RP win. The attitude of the people in SC is changing!
Doesn't make sense...
It's interesting that Paul would be considered "unfavorable" by 50% of the voters while Mark Sanford is at 75% approval in the same poll... their views are quite similar and Sanford is considered my many to be on the short list of Pauls potential running mate.

It makes sense if...
It makes sense if you consider that the polling is being conducted by registered Republicans who voted for a sitting wartime president.
I can NOT confirm that what I wrote above is true. However, I have read it so many times from other posters that I am starting to believe it. Also, it is important to note that a recent poll showed that 54% of Republican voters favored a withdrawl from Iraq immediatley or within the next six months. So, for 50% to view him unfavorably is not that disturbing to me.
What we really need is for Huckabee, McCain and Fred to get up there in the polls. We need the Neocon vote as divided as possible. I hope that Jan 3 is the coldest day in Iowa history and the only people braving the weather are the Paulites!

Makes Perfect Sense
Here's tight circumstantial proof culled directly from the article:
"Seventy-two percent (72%) say that President Bush is doing a good or an excellent job while 13% say fair and 14% say he is doing a poor job..."
Even rank and file republicans are not anywhere near 72% supportive of Bush or only 13 or so percent disapproving. For Ron Paul to be polling at 8% of this crowd is quite a feat!
Something cool I found, the Ron Paul Repository:

It's a tool for marketing and public relations. Don't follow polls, just keep fighting the good fight by canvasing, yard signs, standing in corners with signs etc.
How many Independent voters in SC
I noticed that South Carolina is an open state primary. How many Independent voters are there in South Carolina Percentage wise?
One Year Ago
This article says 21% in South Carolina were claiming to be Independent.

I wonder how they selected 'Likely primary voters'.
Based on the 72% approval of GWB, I'll bet this poll severely underestimates RP's support and overestimates the unfavorables.
Probably the usual brain-dead method
"Primary voters in a totally-meaningless primary with landlines, no cellphones, and plenty of time on their hands."

Hope in SC
South Carolina has an open primary, I believe. Ron Paul could possibly bring in alot of Independent and Democratic votes there. The only catch is, they have to vote in any run-off GOP primary if they vote in the first one.
How can that possibly be enforced?
Are there jack-booted vote police kicking in doors in the Palmetto State?
Just A Risk
I guess like any other election, if you cheat there is always a chance someone will notice and you'll be charged with a crime.
I'll have to take a gander at the statute.
Seems to me to be awfully tyrannical to -require- someone to vote again if they vote once. Are registered GOPers required to vote in a runoff too, or is it just the crossovers? What if the runoff was between Mr. A and Mr. B, and you voted for Mr. C and you think A & B are equally unworthy of your vote? (A plausible scenario for this particular election.) If there's a real penalty I can't believe it's been enforced or upheld in court.
