Templeton launches new TV commercial
A new TV commercial from Republican gubernatorial candidate Catherine Templeton rebuts recent false attacks from her leading opponent.
In it, an announcer notes, “The press call Henry McMaster’s attacks ‘false’ and Nikki Haley, quote, ‘backs up Templeton’.” The commercial concluded with Templeton saying, “It’s time for a governor as bold and conservative as the people of South Carolina.”
“Henry McMaster and his corrupt cronies are so desperate they will say anything to hang on to power,” said R. J. May III, Templeton’s campaign manager. “The fact that McMaster became the first incumbent governor in America to go negative before his challengers tells you all you need to know about how desperate and full of yesterday he really is. Sadly, the McMaster attacks are exactly what we’ve come to expect from a career politician who was fined thousands of dollars by the State Ethics Commission, whose advisers have been indicted and his closest confidants have been hauled before the State Grand Jury in an ongoing public corruption probe. Catherine Templeton is a conservative buzzsaw who is ready to rip into corrupt Columbia and end business as usual for the good ol’ boys. She was appointed by Nikki Haley, interviewed by President Trump to serve in his cabinet, and unlike Henry McMaster, as governor she will reduce government, not grow it.”
