A week from today brings the South Carolina republican primary. Carol at the peace center tonight, a heated debate on a National Television in front of a spirited South Carolina crowd. Nigel robertson joins us from the spin room at the peace center. Nigel . Nigel what a night. The sparks were flying in english and spanish on stage. The candidates talking about immigration, national security,. Security, health care. It got heated. The Biggest Issue was trending on google, the death of Justice Scalia. The question was, sure the president appoints someone in the last few months of his presidency . I think is going to do it whether im ok with it or not. Its up to Mitch Mcconnell and everyone else to stop it. Delay, delay, delay. I would like the president to just, for once, put the country first. Were going to have an election for president very soon. The people will understand what is at stake in that election. I believe the president should not move forward. We ought let the next president who is going to decide to run the Supreme Court. I looked at some of the remarks people made after finding out Justice Scalia had died. They were truly nasty remarks. Position is truly a shame. We should be thinking about how we can create healing. Right now we are not going to get healing her with president obama. That is very clear. I fully agree we should not allow a judge to be appointed during his time. I do not believe you should appoint someone. Its not unprecedented. Its been over 80 years since a lameduck president has appointed a Supreme Court justice. It reminds us of this, how important this election is. Someone on the stage will get to choose the balance of the Supreme Court. It will begin by filling the vacancy there now. We need people on the bench that understand that the constitution is not a living and breathing document, to be interpreted as originally meant. You were in favor of dropping the threshold. No, according to the changes harry reid made, applet judges can be made appelate judges can be named, but not Supreme Court judges. If that were the case, harry reid and barack obama would ram down our throat a liberal justice like the ones barack obama has imposed on us. Conservatives for a long time have felt that republican president picked justices that do not turn out to be real conservatives. Bernie sanders said he would have a litmus test. He would want someone to overturn citizens united. What about you . Which you have a litmus test for a nominee . Model on specific issues. I think the next president not on specific i iues. I would nominate people with a proven record in the judiciary. The problem in the past, weve appointed people thinking you can get it through the senate, sometimes we are surprised. The simple fact is, the next president needs to appoint someone with a proven conservative record, similar to Justice Scalia, who is a lover of liberty. Who consistently applied that kind of philosophy, who do not try to legislate from the bench. And then fight and fight for that nomination to make sure that passes. Nigel joining me now is the chairman of the South Carolina republican party. Matt, your thoughts on tonight . Matt i want to put a positive spotlight on greenville. The people have been wonderful. From the mayor to the staff, and volunteers, its been a wonderful night. Nigel what about the candidates . It was a raucous debate. This is football country. Are crowd was excited about the candidates. That is the storyline, how excited people are. Nigel you have not endorsed a candidate. But the card itself spoke loudly the crowd itself spoke loudly too many candidates. What is your response to that . This is a grassroots debate. We had hundreds of party activists, regular people from across the state, to cheer on their favorite campaign. Nigel is it still anyones games . We have a number of candidates doing really well. We saw them with detailed plans how we get this country working again. It is wide open. Nigel thank you very much. Carol and michael, back to you. Coming up, we hear from the democrats. Michael the firstinthesouth primary is less than a week away. Very much a gateway vote and it is soon. Carol the gop primary happens on saturday, february 20.

Carol hundreds of republican supporters gathered outside the peace center throughout the day. Michael many of thehehave strong opinions on issues affecting us. Wyff news 4s corey davis has been speaking with voters. Right now hes live and local in downtown greenville. Corey . Corey tonight we had great indepth conversations with voters outside the peace center while the debate was going on. As candidates went at it on stage, we talked with mothers, fathers grandparents, kids, and , College Students about whats important to them. People here are really passionate about the candidate they support. Hey, what is the top of your sombrero say . It says trump, make America Great again. There you go sir. Can you see it . Corey white you support him why do you support him . Have now have gone the wrong way. We have lost confidence from the ones we have there now. We need someone to get our nation, make it great again. When ted cruz stepped out at Liberty University and proclaimed that he was going to run for president , i knew right then and there i needed to back this man. He is a christian, is conservative, he has a proven record. Corey what are some issues important to people your age . Definitely Student Loans and student debt. The democrats have a handle on the republicans on that. They say they are going to give away free college. We want to know what the republicans are going to do to help us out. As a student, most of the issues around student debt. I am in that period werent traveling into adulthood, coming out of college. Student loans. Undecided. They still have a week too go before the gop president ial primary here in South Carolina to make a decision. Cory davis, wyff news 4 live in greenville. Carol ahead of the state Democratic Party was in town for the gop debate. Michael Patrick Hussion also live at the peace center with the action from the other side of the aisle. Patrick im here with the South Carolina democratic chairman. Chairman, thank you for joining us. Thanks for having me. Patrick this is a different debate than what we have seen in the past, a lot of yelling and shouting. Did they do a good job addressing South Carolinas needs . They did not talk about South Carolinas needs. They talk about cursing, underwear, and mooning. This was a debate for the most powerful position in the world. But yet, we do not talk about any of the issues that are we didnt talk that 250,000 people in the state dont have health care, when they could. We do not talk about rural hospitals letter closing because of that. Issue after issue. There is such a stark contrast from the debate earlier this week with the democrats between Hillary Clinton and Bernie Sanders. It was a debate of substance. You had grown ups. This was giving me flashbacks to middle school. Patrick did you get a sense there was not as much targeting on Hillary Clinton and Bernie Sanders . They did not talk about Hillary Clinton or Bernie Sanders at all. They talked about politicizing the Supreme Court election. They talked about they wanted to adhere to the constitution, but not on this particular situation. They cant have it both ways. Either you believe in the constitution and its words, or you dont. Patrick think you chairman very much. The democratic primary in South Carolina the 27th. Now, the gop contenders face off more tonight, stasocial media played a big part in tonights debate.
