The South Carolina Republican Party has enlisted Michael Jackson, Pete Townshend, and Debbie Harris to provide musical accompaniment to an online expose of gubernatorial candidate Tommy Moore’s (D) long Senate career that, get this, started in 1979.

OK, so not every song featured is exactly from the ‘70s (the site opens to “Tommy Can You Hear Me” off The Who’s 1969 rock opera Tommy), but the musical selection does make otherwise boring information—think Moore’s comments on taxes in 1986—slightly more interesting.

The Republicans will certainly need to keep voters busy doing the hustle. Today state Senator Jake Knotts (R) announced that he has begun collecting the required 10,000 signatures necessary for him to appear on the ballot for governor.

Knotts is taking on the already selected Republican nominee Gov. Mark Sanford, who won his party’s primary last month against challenger Oscar Lovelace (R) by a lower than expected margin. If Knotts appears on the ballot, he may split the conservative vote and give Moore, who is behind in the polls, a chance of winning.

Sanford has angered many Republicans, especially those in the General Assembly, by his repeated use of the veto and combatant stance in dealing with the legislature. (National politics may also be influencing Knott’s decision to enter the race).

The big question now is will the GOP create a special website for Knotts? He joined the House in 1995, so TLC’s Waterfalls would make a good theme song for the site. After all, from Sanford’s perspective a sizable minority of Republicans need to stick to the rivers and the lakes, err governor, that they are used to.
