Can An Unemployed, Unknown Vet Win A US Senate Seat?
(The Grio) — No money, no website, no campaign infrastructure to speak of. So how did Alvin Greene defeat former judge and four-term state legislator Vic Rawls? Is it really such a surprise that in a year with a strong anti-incumbent, “throw the bums out” mood, voters are prepared to vote for just about anyone? Some have speculated that when South Carolinians went to the polls on Tuesday, the fact that Greene’s name appeared at the top of the ballot led to the near 100,000 – or 59 percent — votes he received. Perhaps.
