Title: Mystery SC Candidate's Bizarre Keith Olbermann Interview

What the hell? At this point, it's the only reaction we can have to Alvin Greene, the unemployed veteran who beat out a much more-qualified opponent in the South Carolina Democratic Senate primary. Watch his halting Countdown interview for yourself.

It wasn't much different than other interviews he's given on television and in print. These are all marked by a frustrating vagueness about every aspect of his almost non-existent campaign. Tonight he told Olbermann his campaigning consisted of door-to-door canvassing and a couple of "informal meetings." When Olbermann asked how, given his lack of a website and fundraising, anyone in the state knew enough to vote for him, he said: "I think they heard of my name when I was campaigning across the state to pass the word on. Just by word of mouth. I got the word out, you know."

Many people are concerned he's a Republican plant, meant to derail any Democratic challenge to Republican Jim DeMint.

I haven't watched the video, but the write-up they give this guy is hilarious.

Are these people delusional?  Where is the proof, is anyone on record (like Rush) telling listeners to do it?  Democrats are just embarrassed that their stupidity is so blatant.

There is also the fact that DeMint was going to win easily, anyway.  This guy nay be a plant, but he is a Dem plant to give them something to gripe about.

The power of the black churches to garner votes for democrats is unreal.

Typical response of the left when one of theirs does something stoopid they try to pin the blame on the GOP.

Hello everybody. I have watched the video several times, actually he has a couple of them. Personally I think the guy is a little slow upstairs which is why Olby's show was perfect for him!  :-)
