Thank You!


Dear Friends and Supporters,

I want to take a moment and thank you from the bottom of my heart for your help, prayers and support during my campaign. Katie and I are very grateful for the thousands of new friends we met along the way. Whether it was throwing out the first pitch with my boys at the Myrtle Beach Pelicans baseball game or just talking with families about keeping their jobs and the struggles they face of paying their bills.

President Obama and Democrats in Congress are taking away our individual liberties little by little. Today, we have a federal government more interested in bailing out Wall Street and taking over our healthcare system more than they are about cutting government spending and creating good jobs. I may not be the Republican nominee for Congress, but I will continue our fight to restore conservative principals in Washington.

The November election will be here shortly. We must be united as republicans to help restore and preserve the common values, rights and liberties that have served as the foundation of our nation. As I have said from the beginning of my campaign, I’m dedicated to ensuring America’s best days are ahead of us.

Again, thank you all so very much!

Paul, Katie, Thad and Fletch

South Carolina and the nation are at a crossroads. Every day we see signs that we’re headed in the wrong direction. Hard working South Carolinians can’t find decent jobs and small businesses in our communities are struggling to survive. Yet the Democrats who control Congress are more eager to do the bidding of special interests rather than the people’s business. Under the Obama administration, we are currently adding $3 million dollars per minute to the national debt. I say enough is enough!

We need real change, not empty promises.

That’s why I’m running to represent the 1st Congressional District. I pledge to fight for working families and to preserve the spirit of entrepreneurship and ingenuity that has made our country great. As an owner of both successful and unsuccessful small businesses, I’ve experienced the challenges facing small business owners in today’s economic environment. Issues such as raising the minimum wage and payment of additional premiums for unemployment benefits are killers for small businesses. This must stop. I will fight to provide relief to small business owners. I understand how the current march toward intrusive government regulation, unsustainable debt and higher taxes will kill job creation.

As a former prosecutor dedicated to putting violent criminals behind bars, I also know we must not hesitate to take a firm stand against those who do us harm. That means not allowing the rights of terrorists to trump the rights of American citizens. It also requires real support of our military men and women, not just lip service. The United States should never have to apologize for aggressively protecting our vital interests at home and abroad.

Continue to visit our web site for campaign updates. I also invite you to sign up for e-mail updates, request a yard sign or bumper sticker, or to volunteer and be part of my team. Together we can and will bring South Carolina values to Washington. I hope you will join me.
