SC senator: We've 'got one raghead in the White House, we don't need a raghead in the governor's mansion.'

Well if strange men coming forward to claim they had sex with gubernatorial candidate Nikki Haley doesn't make her go down in the polls, one can always try idiotic racial slurs:

State Sen. Jake Knotts, who backs Lt. Gov. Andre Bauer in the four-way Republican primary battle, made the remark during an interview on “Pub Politics,” a popular online political talk show in Columbia. “We already got one raghead in the White House, we don’t need a raghead in the governor’s mansion,” Knotts said, according to multiple people present for the broadcast.
