Andy Brack looks at the key primary races to watch next month
By about 10 p.m. June 10 – the day of South Carolina’s primaries – we ought to know whether this is really the year of the anti-incumbent.
So far, we’re well on our way. Most election years, incumbents get little, if any, opposition in their own party primaries. But this year – the season of Obama and change – people on the Democratic and Republican sides of the aisle seem to be extra-empowered to take on sitting members of the House and Senate.

Dear Kenny’s parking garage fiasco,
OK, so there are some who are upset that Rickenmann made money on the Kenny's sale, some who are concerned about potential benzene contamination onsite, a potentially unstable foundation due to the Columbia waterworks system beneath, height requirement issues, tax dollars at stake, et cetera. And there are business owners and shoppers who believe the problems above are easily fixed, who support the idea and think it will go off without a hitch. Well, here's what we think should happen with the Kenny's site: ...scrap the garage and build a third, jumbo-sized fountain.
For this new 1.5-acre super fountain, we propose importing purebred Mandarin ducks and using hospitality tax dollars to commission giant baroque statuary of city council and FPA board members spewing water in the center. Throw in some paddleboats and viola! Problem solved.
