The SC-01 is not as socially conservative as say Greenville. SC-01 is where McCain and Romney did well in their primaries. Also Gov. David Beasley didn’t do so well in his runs for Governor. Sanford just might make it in a low turn out special election.

Exactly. That’s why my feeling is that, flawed as Sanford is as a candidate, the odds of him blowing the general election are lower than they would have been for Bostic, who is a professed creationist and who is not particularly popular with economic conservatives.
