Joe Erwin Quotations

With tonight's speech, Sanford again refuses to take responsibility for his failed policies and ... the voters have about had enough.

I respect Michael's decision. He found out that, for him, the timing wasn't good and, honestly, I'm excited about some of the (other) people who have expressed an interest.

I think he's the kind of guy who would be successful regardless of party affiliation.

Elected officials who win trust, like Strom Thurmond and Fritz Hollings, get re-elected.

A big part of what the chairman does is call time, just like candidates do, when you ask others to give, and I just think that if you're going to do that kind of asking that you'd better be the first one to step up.

Not by any effort of his own, it looks like Mark Sanford finally has a good economic development team for South Carolina.

Hopefully he'll ask good questions and listen carefully to the other leaders at the table so South Carolina can move forward again.

Governor Sanford would rather blame the Department of Labor for passing out bad numbers than work to create jobs in South Carolina.
