Confederate Flag issues

I actually expect this kind of rhetoric from the Democrats but hearing it from the supposed right side of the aisle really grinds my gears.  If these candidates want to endear themselves to the Southern voter then they should just lay-off the Confederate Flag issue.  It is not about race its about heritage and if they think this rhetoric will get them any black votes they are fooling themselves.

I am glad that the ads are running against these clowns...maybe South Carolinians will wake up and vote for a Southerner.
