I dont put much faith in this poll.

Sanford will soon go on the attack and expose her.

The NRCC are idiots.

Help him out and send him some money cuz the establishment won’t.

Sanford is a 2 term governor and has never lost an election.

He was absolutely the right choice in that race even with his baggage... the others did not have money and weren’t even known!

Keep the faith and help him out that’s what I’m doing... the establishment will not help Mark, he’s on his own.

He’s used to it. He has been fighting against his own party just as much as the Dems during his career and his time as SC governor.

He’s actually - gasp - a conservative!

It’s not lost yet and I still think he’s going to win it.

The district is still very Republican.

Polling a special election is not easy.

Turnout will be low. Lots of older folks and Sanford voters will show up.

There’s still 3 weeks left.

Sanford will blow his campaign cash in the last 2 weeks and expose her.

Keep faith and help him out that’s what I’m doing!

She’s a liberal so as soon as she opens her mouth he will pin her down.

Pelosi is spending $1 MILLION! in ads for her!

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.

It’s intentional. Part of the campaign to throw the House to the Rats.

Sanford’s probably been paid under the table, and the agencies have all kind of dirt on him to inspire him to keep his end of the deal.

This is what happens when you run a really crappy candidate.

The Republican primary voters of SC, who “resurrected” Newt Gingrich in 2012, must be among the most clueless in the nation. By backing “favorite son” Gingrich, they stopped Santorum’s post-IA momentum, which he could not regain for a month, and it was never enough to be competitive with Romney. Now the primary voters have committed political suicide again by giving away a House seat to the Democrats. The big winner from all of this must be “Loveable Lindsey”, another poor SC Republican primary choice.

Somehow I can see SC Republican primary voters in 2016 leading the way for Jebbie and the return of the Atwater Bushes.

I look forward to supporting the Sanford-Akin Republican ticket in 2016.

Because a mind is a terrible thing.

Conservatives don't abandon their posts and run from their obligations, without even taking 5 seconds to make sure somebody is minding the store.

Conservatives don't ask the taxpayers to pick up the costs of their booty calls to South America.

Conservatives don't ignore court orders. Conservatives don't trespass on private property not their own.

Sanford is many things, but he is not a conservative. Not if the word still means anything.

well I hope you're right....around here, Sanford was a saint up until he proved he was just a man, but for that sin of being a human drew the hate of so many freepers....

we like our candidates to be pure and virginal I guess...

The demon of narcissism that propels most politicians makes them more dangerous than an equal number of psychopaths.

Thanks for the ping.

As expected, bearing in mind PPP is a RAT polling firm.
