Here's the press release announcing Rawl's intentions:

Rawl To Announce Campaign for US Senate

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE- 3/3/2010- 9:51 AM

Vic Rawl, former State Legislator, Judge, Prosecutor and current member of Charleston County Council will open his campaign to represent South Carolina in the United States Senate with a day long tour from the coast to the mountains on Monday, March 8.

Rawl will begin the tour at 10 am in front of the Lonnie Hamilton County Services Building 4045 Bridge View Dr, in North Charleston, SC. In case of rain, the announcement will be made inside the building’s rotunda.

The Campaign will move to Columbia, SC for a 1 pm press conference at SC Democratic Party Headquarters at 1529 Hampton St.

The Tour will conclude with appearances at both the Spartanburg and Greenville County Democratic Party Conventions that evening between 6 and 8 pm.

The Campaign’s online presence will activate that morning with a Website, Twitter, and Facebook presence.

The campaign tour can be reached on cell phone that day at (843) 343-9486. Updates will be posted on Twitter at http://twitter.com/Rawl_for_Se... throughout the day with links to internet and video content.

There's a Facebook page supporting him here.

If he receives the Democratic nomination, Rawl will stand against Jim "Waterloo" DeMint in the November 2010 general election for the privilege of representing the State of South Carolina in the US Senate.

Maybe he'll do something about all those subversives. Or at least raise the overthrow-the-government fee to $10?
