Can the Shoe Leather Fund Send Me to South Carolina? O, Ye of Little Faith!

OK, I never heard the name “Curtis Bostic” until last week, when he finished second to Mark Sanford in the South Carolina 1st District primary. Now, Bostic has been endorsed by Rick Santorum and polls show Bostic doing better than Sanford against Stephen Colbert’s sister. So it’s obviously time for a road trip and, with […]

The Power of Prejudice
