South Carolina Gov. Nikki Haley will name Rep. Tim Scott(R-SC) to
replace the retiring U.S. Sen. Jim DeMint (R-SC).

That will make Scott the first African American from the South to serve
in the U.S. Senate since Reconstruction -- and the only African-American
senator to serve in the upcoming 113th Congress.

Scott's personal story is a remarkable one: While working at
Chick-Fil-A, he met a movie theater manager who took him under his wing
and taught him the values of conservatism and hard work. Long a poor
student, Scott turned his life around and ended up getting elected to
the South Carolina State House and then Congress."

Love it! :

Just another right-wing asshole.

Seems as if took a Republican too look beyond color.
