Sanford went from potential Presidential candidate to lowly Rep. He was certainly sunk by his own shenanigans for all intents and purposes.
If you’re going to fall in love with a mistress, man up, get a divorce, and be honest with your voters. He was sold as a staunch Conservative and soiled the brand with his selfish actions. I wouldn’t have cared if he lost to that Dem moron in that special election ... Someone new and Conservative would have replaced him a few months later in the fall. Instead we have yet another moralless establishment hack taking a seat that could be had by someone much better.
Sorry ... Replaced ‘her’ not ‘him’ ... I just remember that the candidate running against him was that moron Steven Colbert’s sister.
Party loyalty aside, I’, glad the country found out what a fruitcake this man is capable of being before we nominated him for the top office. A self centered fruitcake at that. I can still see his poor wife and his three sons propped up onstage with him. All four family members looked to be feeling lower that whale Sh*t.
