No one should have concerns about Bob Bockman taking a temporary appointment to the Public Service Commission. Actually, we should be sad that it’s only temporary.

Bob Bockman is a man of unquestioned integrity, rectitude and compassion.

He will be a voice for fairness and professionalism and help steer a course forward that comprehends what is best for all South Carolinians.
