Extreme group MoveOn.org has given Rob Miller big bucks and is calling the shots on health care. Here’s what The Hill Newspaper reports. “On Monday, the liberal group backed that up with an e-mail to its members that threatens primaries for Members who vote against the bill and the release of a new six-figure national cable TV ad campaign that targets Democrats who are wavering on whether to support the controversial legislation.”Read the full Roll Call article here.

It’s an issue that Blue Dog Democrats and Republicans all agree on: the federal government should not be paying for abortions in the Democrats’ plan to takeover health care. Now we know why Miller has been avoiding the press and the public. Take his recent statement on the Stupak Amendment. The proposal would not allow federal funding of abortion in any government health plan, with exceptions being in cases of rape, incest or danger to the life of the mother. A local blog posted video of Miller on Tuesday telling a group of Democrats he would not support the Stupak
Senate Guarantees Right To Secret Ballot Elections in Union Votes, Makes Spending Caps Top Priority Columbia, SC – March 10, 2010 – South Carolina’s Republican Senators today moved two key bills being pushed by the state’s business community. The Senate passed the anti-card check bill protecting workers from union intimidation. It also set legislation on special order creating a constitutional cap on state spending. H.3305, introduced by Rep. Eric Bedingfield, is a constitutional amendment that would guarantee a worker’s right to voting by secret ballot during union organization. The legislation is a reaction to the deceptively named federal “Employee Free
You have to feel for Rob Miller. He loses his race in 2008 against U.S. Rep. Joe Wilson by eight points, and somehow has to spin it into saying it was a close race. He has to accept more than a million dollars in contributions from out-of-state liberals because South Carolinians just aren’t buying what he’s selling. And even after running for Congress once before, he’s still not ready for the big time. A few weeks ago, he went to speak to a Democratic organization in Irmo. The group, trying to garner some publicity, invited Columbia media to the event.
Democrat congressional candidate Rob Miller’s attempts to earn the public trust aren’t going over too well in the Second District of South Carolina. He’s currently mired in a war of words with his own supporters, trying to blame local Democrat Party activists for his campaign’s decision to hide the MoveOn.org-backed candidate from the media. On February 18th, Miller spoke to the Greater Irmo Democratic Club. NBC affiliate WIS-TV reported then that Miller’s campaign kicked out the station’s photographer when the event began. <object width=”480″ height=”385″><param name=”movie” value=”http://www.youtube.com/v/FiPVmqSrgfM&hl=en_US&fs=1&”></param><param name=”allowFullScreen” value=”true”></param><param name=”allowscriptaccess” value=”always”></param><embed src=”http://www.youtube.com/v/FiPVmqSrgfM&hl=en_US&fs=1&” type=”application/x-shockwave-flash” allowscriptaccess=”always” allowfullscreen=”true” width=”480″ height=”385″></embed></object>XX Last night on WIS-TV’s 11pm newscast (see attached video
Columbia, SC – March 4, 2010 – South Carolina Republican Party Chairman Karen Floyd today issued the following statement on the Economic Development Competitiveness Act passed by the state House of Representatives: “Our Republican leaders in the House today showed they understand how important lower taxes and a business-friendly environment are to creating jobs,” Floyd said. “The contrast we are going to offer voters in November could not be more clear, as Democrats believe more taxes and more debt are the prescription for our country. We applaud Republicans for not only standing against this, but for offering positive alternatives of

Columbia, SC – February 24, 2010 – Democratic Congressional candidate Rob Miller has been busy, but not in the Second Congressional District where he’s running. First, he was clinking glasses with a liberal club in Manhattan. Last night, he was in Washington, D.C. kowtowing to union bosses at a fundraiser. Tonight, he’s back in the national capital with arch-liberal Nancy Pelosi at yet another leftist meet and greet. National liberal leaders Nancy Pelosi, Steny Hoyer, James Clyburn, and others hosted a “Meet Our 2010 Candidates” reception at the DNC Headquarters tonight, which Miller is attending. Today, S.C. GOP Executive Director

Sanderson Jr. Guest Columnist Wednesday, Feb. 17, 2010 Certainly, it has surprised some in our community that as a lifelong Democrat and a member of the United Steelworkers of America for 36 years, I decided to become a Republican. It wasn’t a choice I made capriciously, nor was it something that hadn’t already been a long time coming. I’D LIKE TO START out by saying that I’m proud
