Another Sex Scandal In S.C.?

Just as state Rep. Nikki Haley (R) was beginning to gain momentum in South Carolina's competitive four-way June 8 gubernatorial primary -- especially after winning Sarah Palin's endorsement -- this story has the potential to dramatically alter the race to succeed Gov. Mark Sanford (R).

Will Folks, a prominent South Carolina Republican blogger who was Sanford's former press secretary, admits to having an "inappropriate physical relationship" with Haley "several years ago." Haley has been married to her husband, Michael, for 13 years, and they have two children.

Folks suggests that he's revealing his past relationship with Haley because it's being leaked to news organizations. "It is what it is, and aside from the Haley family – Michael, Nikki, Rena and Nalin – I feel no need to apologize or explain myself to anyone. People are human. We make mistakes. And as I have learned from experience, the key to life isn’t the mistakes we make, it’s how we choose to handle them."

"...especially after winning Sarah
Palin endorsement..."
So it's a good thing to be endorsed by a quitter.

9:17 A quitter ? How about the left wing tactic of continued law suits to drive her out of office because she is a women ? This tactic is unscrupulous and a staple of democrats . These accusations against this woman from S.C. is not only another attack on a women but a diversion to take Obama's failures off voters minds for a moment !

Can you please cite any such lawsuits? She should be sued for being STUPID.
She could not event answer Katie Couric's question as to what she reads.
Not a hard question for someone who, get this, reads.

Quit her government job and make 12mil with Faux news. Who is the celebrity now?

It is the hypocricy of these candidates that preach morality to everyone else.

Here is just one Alex Mar 6, 2009 ... Palin is being sued for violating the law by failing to issue the 2007 Juneteenth Proclamation. While the lawsuit is frivolous .

All law suits that have been brought against her have failed but she couldn't afford the millions in lawyers fee's so she had to go into the private sector to pay them which I think shows her selflessness not wishing to sacrifice the people of Alaska while she defended herself . Surely Alex you have heard of these suits please tell me your not this ill-informed ! But what should I expect from a woman hater.

Just so we are clear, you think she wanted to remain Governor of Alaska and not a highly paid multi-millionaire giving speeches, writing books, and hosting TV shows?

She really didn't have a choice she had to pay the lawyer bills . If she wanted another run at a higher political office then it would have helped her to stay Governor but with the frivolous law suits from the left she had no choice .

Frivolous lawsuits pushed her out. Now that is the funniest thing that I have ever heard. Fact is Palin is a quitter. She quit her job before this with Alaska Oil and Gas Conservation Commission. That is two for two on the state wide level. Stop making excuses and accept that she is a quitter.

Intelligent??? It took her 6 years to get one degree from 4 different colleges.
Anyone who think that she is intelligent should go see a doctor.

Maybe if Palin got a free ride to Harvard with no chance of flunking like silver spoon Obama she would have stayed right there ! And she still ended up more qualified then Obama !

Did anyone see the photo of the guy who alleges an affair with the female candidate for SC governor? I seriously doubt an attractive woman would even glance at such an ugly dude. Read more about his pitiful background and you will see it for what it is--wishful thinking!!!
