WHat kind of Republican is this?
One you probably would approve of. She received the endorsement of Palin, Romney, the Tea Party and Club for Growth. She's very conservative on fiscal policy but doesn't talk much about social issues unless she's called a whore or closet Muslim, both of which have gone on during the primary.
Closet Sikh, not Closet Muslim, though I'll admit, there are a fair number of South Carolinians who would be hard pressed to notice that there was a difference, and of those that do, a number of them think that they are a variety of Hindu.
