TPM Editor’s Blog

Stranger and Stranger

I guess I should start scouting office space in South Carolina because at this rate it’s only a matter of time before we’re forced to launch TPMSC.

The latest development down there is that one of the three Democratic primary candidates who Rep. James Clyburn (D-SC) fingered yesterday as likely “plants” hired a GOP consulting firm that happens to be run by a guy who until recently had been a congressional aide and campaign manager to Rep. Joe “You Lie” Wilson (R-SC).

Suspicious? So are we. Here’s our report.
