The Midlands are the Columbia area. Fairfield, Lexington, Newberry and Richland counties are considered the "midlands".
In 2002 Graham beat Alex Sanders, whose anti-death penalty ("capital punishment is contrary to the will of God") yet pro-choice ("abortion is a legitimate choice that a woman makes") stance is typical of the Left's moral relativism.
Thanks for the info....I was aware of Sanders' positions....my point was that up until the lection, the Dems were all saying he had a great chance to win.."they lied"..how does INEZ compare to Alex?
