I think Sanford has managed to lose a safe seat by existing.

I almost feel bad for Sanford, just the most unlucky, emotionally dysfunctional guy out there.

Quote from: True Federalist on April 04, 2013, 12:39:50 PM
Frasier has been a Republican running in Democratic races for years now in an effort to force Democrats to spend money on primary elections rather than saving funds for the general election.  As for his endorsement of Sanford, Frasier is as deluded about his political importance as Charles J. Guiteau was about his.  That Sanford is bothering to put this endorsement on their website indicates they are worried about losing and are scraping not just the bottom of the bucket, but the underside for every conceivable vote.

I disagree with your politics usually, but I have to admit a deep respect for a Guiteau reference. I am going to see my Lordy!



Has anyone seen any public polling since the runoff ended? I'm curious to see how they're matching up

Sanford's lame excuses. What a creep.

Roguebeaver, I would like to know, your libertarian philosophy represents probably the center of this district. Could you support Colbert Busch because of Sanford?

Per Peter Hamby, trespassing on Jenny's properties is a habit of Sanford's. Congrats to Congresswoman Colbert-Busch.

Hope you're right; too early to open the sham pain, though.

I think maybe this guy didn't take enough time away from politics. His head is just not in the right place right now.

NRCC has pulled all support. Breaking. Remembering that Sanford can, and now must, self-finance. Though given how notoriously cheap the guy is... he used his cell instead of a flashlight when trespassing.

He may not have started the day with the intention of breaking into his ex's house again.

Tim Scott on whether he's supporting Sanford: "No comment." Now it all depends on turnout and whether Pubs return to the fold or stay home on E-Day. NRSC had been doing minimal work but had been considering whether to go all-in, that's over now.

Yeah. Sanford is screwed.

(Which, when I think about it, is a fitting way to put that.)

Jenny Sanford saying that her sons were shocked at their dad bringing his fiancee to the victory party, one of them hadn't even met her before. D+1 indeed.

They're weren't doing much anyways, more symbolic than anything.

We all knew that nominating Sandford was a horrible mistake for the Republicans, but could we have predicted that it would be this horrible?
