		Update: The first of five televised debates between South Carolina Senate candidates Republican Jim DeMint and Democrat Inez Tenenbaum was an acrimonious affair that continued to focus on more local, less national, issues affecting the conservative Palmetto State.
		For South Carolinians, traditionally conservative voters with a historical tendency to look inward, the election in November will be less about national issues such as the war in Iraq and the war on terror and more about local issues like taxes, trade and jobs.

		The 52-year-old DeMint was hailed by conservatives last year when he held his ground against tremendous pressure from the House GOP leadership and the White House and was one of only 25 Republican House members to vote against President Bush's controversial Medicare prescription drug proposal, the first new federal entitlement in 40 years.
