Ladies’ Night: Blanche, Nikki, Sharron, Meg and Carly
Update 4: RGA backs Nikki Haley as the candidate:
A surprisingly blunt press release from the Republican Governors Association all but calls for Rep. Gresham Barrett (R-S.C.) to stand down and let Nikki Haley start running for governor of South Carolina, after she missed the right to avoid a runoff by the narrowest of margins.
The statement from spokesman Tim Murtaugh:
The voters of South Carolina made a clear choice in Nikki Haley, notwithstanding the possibility of a runoff. The outcome is all but certain.Nikki Haley withstood a barrage of innuendoes and slurs in the closing days of the primary season and persevered to the finish with dignity, determination and confidence.

We congratulate Nikki for her grit and determination…
