I was out Friday and I’m just now catching up on e-mail from the end of the week. I’ll share this broadcast message from my fellow Rotarian (and former state election commission chair and former S.C. Senate candidate
and perpetual Republican gadfly) Rusty DePass, sent out on Friday:
I want to ask you to consider voting for Mike Campbell for Lieutenant Governor if you vote in the Republican primary. When I first worked for his Dad when he was running for Lieutenant Governor, Mike was 5 years old. It’s hard to believe he’s 37 now, has a family, runs a business. Mike grew up on the fortunate side of the street, to be sure, but whether that’s a good or a bad thing—and who among us wouldn’t choose that way if we could?—he certainly had nothing to do with it. The children of prominent people, I have observed, have a very special cross they bear in life, and I think Mike has handled it well. I am really very proud of and for him in the way he has taken on the responsibilities of family and business life and he may very well develop into the kind of public servant his Dad was. I know all three Republican candidates for Lieutenant Governor WELL and I can tell you without fear of contradiction that Mike
Campbell knows how to behave the best of the three.
He was endorsed today by The State newspaper’s editorial board but I hope you will not hold that against him. I feel sure he will not be endorsed by them in the fall.
— William B. “Rusty” DePass, Jr.
As you can see, I get as much respect from Rusty as I do from the regular commenters on the blog. What he means by that last bit, I have no idea. I had to go look it up to see who was even running on the Democratic side in the fall (as I’ve explained over and over, the 51 candidates with primary opposition in the races we’re writing about NOW have been more than enough for me to think about). As near as I can recall, I’ve never even met the guy (although his picture looks familiar). I suppose Rusty knows something that is hidden to me.

Seems that you are focused on the wrong reasons to write about Rusty DePass. The moron should be getting the full court press from… well, the Press. Rather than posting his endorsement and his ironic opinion of your employer, you could provide some important comments on the pitiful state of SC politics and its politicians. Never have I been so pissed at being from SC since seeing DePass’ nonsensical and racist “posting” being bandied around the national news… I can’t understand why you aren’t too.
Rusty DePass is an embarrassment to the Palmetto State.

I think only you can decide whether or not you think you are psychic. Start keeping a dream and vision journal, and go back to it often. You’ll start to see a pattern, noe way or the other.
