Multiple R & D candidates are floating trial (or not so trial) balloons across South Carolina. The more obvious are folks like Vincent Sheheen (D), Henry McMaster (R), Gresham Barrett (R), Tumpy Campbell (R), Robert Ford (D), Andre Bauer (R), Joe Erwin (D), Harry Ott (D) but do any of those have the strength or reach to lead South Carolina? Or the vision to use forward-looking technology to reach the masses? What about Brad Hutto? Gilda Cobb-Hunter? Jim Rex? Chip Campsen (R). The early field is crowded but which of these offer the leadership this state needs?
