Haley gives statement of Graham support, but not endorsement

[POSTANDCOURIER] A day after S.C. Sen. Tim Scott avoided a question on whether he was backing fellow Republican Sen.

Lindsey Graham
... the endangered South Carolina RINO...
, Gov. Nikki Haley
...first woman to serve as Governor of South Carolina, and the second Indian-American governor in the country, after Bobby Jindal of Louisiana. At the age of 39, Haley is the youngest current governor in the U.S., a distinction formerly held by Jindal. She is a Republican, which really grates on the Dems...
chimed in.

Answering a question in Arizona where she is attending a National Governor's Association event, she said she was not getting involved in the race but praised what Graham has done for the state.

"I have made it very clear I am not going to be involved in any South Carolina races," she said.

"But I want to say this, on any issue that I have had to deal with Lindsey on, whether it was the NLRB issue, whether it was voter ID, whether it's been on the fight that we've had with Obamacare or whether it's been fighting for our businesses in South Carolina, Lindsey has dropped everything to help with those fights. And so for that I'm very grateful for him."

Scott on CNN this week avoided the Graham endorsement question by saying he was focusing on his own race next year.

#1 there is an unspoken "... but, I will not shed a tear if the Tea Party puts another Jim Demint up and they replace his john-mccain asskissing hide."

#2 Tame Republicans are giving the Tea Party candidates the cold shoulder. Only fair to serve up the same dish.
