That quote is from this politico article.
“They’re small incidents, but enough to raise eyebrows among the traditionalists who dominate the state’s political establishment.
{As a member of Congress in the 1990s, he slept in his office to save money}. Political insiders recount tales of his walking around barefoot in meetings in the state Capitol and even doing sit-ups at odd times. During his State of the State speech in 2006, he lost his train of thought and admitted he was daydreaming about a fishing trip with a pal.
Katon Dawson, the former state GOP chairman, recalled when Sanford disappeared from the Republican National Convention last year in St. Paul, Minn.
“He called me and said he was in back in South Carolina,” Dawson said. “He didn’t tell anybody.”
Sounds like my kind of guy. Fishing beats a political convention full of pompous asses any day.
