South Carolina: Where the action will be

Charleston, S.C. – While the junior half of this operation has been trekking across the Iowa plains, we’ve been sampling opinions in the Palmetto State. Chances are we’ll be back soon.

The South Carolina Republican Party has already scheduled a presidential primary debate for May 15. It’s going to be a very high-profile event in the early part of the upcoming GOP contest.

Not to be outdone, state Democratic Party chairman Joe Erwin announced this week that the Dems have scheduled a presidential debate timed with the state convention and Jefferson-Jackson dinner on April 27.

Will Hillary be there? Will Barack Obama? It’s going to be an interesting early test of commitment.

Two insider-y (local movers and shakers a’plenty) Charleston places not to miss are the Hominey Grill on Rutledge Ave. and the Long Island Cafe on the Isle of Palms. (I see Fritz Hollings dining there every time I drop-in from Atlanta. He must live nearby.)

I blogged the Hominey Grill/R.W. Apple (RIP now)here: (http://spaceygreview.blogspot.com/2006/03/take-this-grit-and-shove-it.html)
