You know that ARG poll I mentioned yesterday? Well, Tom Ervin is very proud of the progress it shows for his campaign:
NEW POLL SHOWS THREE-WAY RACE, TOM WITH MOMENTUM
Greenville, S.C. — The Tom Ervin campaign issued the following statement in response to the poll conducted by American Research Group:
“This poll shows we have a three-way race and confirms what we are seeing on the ground: Tom’s common sense solutions are resonating with voters,” said Matt David, the campaign’s senior adviser. “Whether it’s his push for tough ethics reform in Columbia or his plan to eliminate the income tax, this momentum will continue as more people learn about Tom.”
Link to poll information:

I’ll bet that if he didn’t have something to show for all that money he spent, he’d really be bummed about now…

It’s actually pretty good. You’ve got a guy that nobody has ever heard of, running as an independent, effectively a 4th party candidate, and he’s got over 50% of the support that Vincent Sheheen, a well known State Senator and Democratic candidate’s got.
Yes, he’s doing quite well for someone who wouldn’t normally have a chance.
Let’s see – if it’s a “three way race”, than I suppose Tom Ervin would trade me $43 for every $18 I give him.. because they’re so close.
In this three way race, Haley is in the homestretch, Sheheen is heading for the third turn and Ervin is just about around the first corner.
But I suppose campaign managers have to create something out of nothing or else they don’t get paid.
Call me when Ervin reaches 30%.
