Vacating the blog for a while....

I have to take another sabbatical from blogging for a while.  I know, it's like the 6th time I've done this, but for once I have a good excuse.  An immediate family member is very ill with cancer and the end is very close so I need to focus on the important things in life instead of things like the soap opera that is South Carolina politics.

Now, I know it will break the heart of the South Carolina GOP that I won't be reporting on things I heard a certain State Senator say on "the Internets", but them's the breaks.

Don't know when I'll return to blogging or Twitter, but for now I'm going to stay off and tend to what matters most.  I wish everyone well (yes, even you Nikki Haley) and urge you to remember that politics is just politics... family matters far more than anything that happens in the State House or the White House.
