    @Doctor-Phibes said in Nikki Haley announces:

    It's not whether she's moderate that's the question, it's whether she's at least competent.

    Well, she speaks coherently, so that's a big factor in her favor.

    Baby steps...

    I bet she scores almost as highly as Trump did on the fiendishly complex "Person, Woman, Man, Camera, TV" test

    I was only joking

      Trump projected to win South Carolina Republican primary, in Haley's home state.

        Watching her post SC speech now. Not giving up.

          She said that Trump can't be beaten...and yet she persisted.

          Is she hoping for a disqualification because of Trumps legal woes?

              Ari Fleischer thinks she’ll run as an independent.

                Well, looks like Trump whipped her by 20 points in her own state.

                She runs as an independent and her political career is over. I have my doubts.

                  Niki has now spent over $76M. I suspect the money will dry up shortly.

                      I'm surprised she's had as much money as she has had. Could she raise enough for a run? I dunno.

                      Voter support? She couldn't win her home state. I just don't see where she could garner enough support to make a big enough difference as an independent.

                      Graham is 68. Scott might be Trump's running mate. Either way, that might be a future possibility, but not if she makes an independent run. At least IMO.

                          On "voter support" for Haley:

                          https://wapo.st/42TT9ND

                          According to SC Republican primary exit polls:

                          • Trump won every demographic, every income level, except the college educated cohort, except those who consider themselves "moderate" or "liberal"

                          • Forget about leaving abortion laws to the states, a majority of the SC Republican primary voters want a federal ban on abortion, and this group overwhelmingly supports Trump

                          • "About 6 in 10 South Carolina GOP primary voters denied the legitimacy of Biden’s 2020 presidential election ..." Go figure.

                                    Haley was correct in her SC speech - Trump drives people away when he talks. What she did not say is that he wins supporters with every corrupt legal maneuver by the Dems.

                                      He was always projected to win.

                                      But a 60/40 win isn't what they expected weeks ago. He was supposed to have at least twice that of the next candidate. I do find it interesting that since mid-January, Nikki has gone up 13 points, Trump has gone up 3.

                                      Most of the DeSantis (et al) nominee voters went to Nikki.

                                      Here were the SC polls for the last 6 months:

                                      Purple = Donald
                                      Red = Nikki

                                      I'm telling you, the lack of enthusiasm for Trump compared to 2020 (where he lost as well) should greatly concern you if you want Biden out of office.

                                        “Cry havoc and let slip the DOGE of war!”

                                        Those who cheered as J-6 American prisoners were locked in solitary for 18 months without trial, now suddenly fight tooth and nail for foreign terrorists’ "due process". — Buck Sexton
