Pretty sure the "establishment", such that it is, was helping Sanford till his latest trespassing charge came to light.
He’s actually - gasp - a conservative!
He's a liar and a tool, and we're probably going to lose the seat because of him and the gullible, foolish primary voters that wanted to give him a second chance.
the others did not have money and weren’t even known!
So what? It's an R+11 district. Pretty much any of the candidates could have won the seat for us - except lying, cheating Sanford.
Yes, Republicans should vote for Sanford in the general election. But IF he retains the seat for us, and he probably won't, every effort needs to be made to eject him and find a decent candidate next time around. The reality is Stephen Colbert's sister is likely to win because of Mark Sanford's selfishness and the idiocy of SC1 primary voters.
He won because... he’s known, liked and got money.
Contrary to what this poll suggests.
These voters are going to turn up on election day and I still predict he will win.
It might be closer than I first thought though.
The NRCC are overreacting and should be helping him.
They’re a disgrace.
