One can only imagine what lunch conversations are like in Columbia

Cotton Boll Conspiracy takes a post of mine to argue that a consultant/blogger who works for the SC senate GOP caucus is wrong in his argument for tort reform but if the legislature enacts tort reform he will be proved right.

  1. My point is that Donehue's argument is based on a fallacy. Any state in the country can identify an area or two where juries can be more easily manipulated; that doesn't in and of itself mean there's a need for comprehensive "tort reform."

    Simply put, a handful of high-priced payouts does not prove that tort reform is overdue. Donehue's merely playing up a hot button issue to generate support for tort reform legislation.
