Scott will remain vulnerable only to White Republicans. If none run against him, he is safe.
Good for South Carolina; it would've been hard seeing them elect a black senator a few decades ago. It strikes me as the most "Enlightened" of the hardcore segregationist states (LA, AL, MS, GA, SC) at this point.
.
Given most African Americans are Democrats, no they aren't any more "enlightened" than any other Southern State.
This reads that they're not enlightened because they're not Democrats...
It means the only reason they're voting for Scott is the (R) next to is name. If he was a (D) or (I) he'd be flattened, mostly be racial reasons.
So they're voting for him out of staunch loyalty to whomever the Republican in the race is, but if he were a Democrat, these same people wouldn't be voting for him for mostly racial reasons? Sorry, but that makes no sense.
