“He was also AWOL. His staff said they had no idea where he was. That is unacceptable.”


I agree, that is unacceptable. But voting for the Obama agenda is even more unacceptable, and that’s what we’d get if the Democrat wins.

There was a primary, and after Sanford announced his intention to seek the seat, 15 other Republicans ran, albeit none other that were truly first-tier candidates. Enough of the SC-01 Republican voters were willing to forgive Sanford to have him finish first by a mile in the first round and then win the run-off (against the second-place finisher in the first round) by like 15%.

“Either we believe what we have said about Clinton, Edwards and Weiner or we don’t. Are we hypocrites or Conservatives?”


If we did not forgive those who have shown repentance and contrition, we would not be very good Christians. None of the three Democrat scumbags you mentioned expressed much remorse for what they did, and they certainly did not begin acting in a way that showed they were turning over a new leaf.

That's a fear vote. Name the compromise candidates that have won since President McCain, up to and beyond President Romney. They can be state candidates.

You mean he reconciled the covenant that he made with his wife instead of following his hormones?

Like Jimmy Swaggart? Like Jim Bakker? Like Slick and Beast in their "Pretty in Pink No. 1" interview in 1992?

Guess we should keep that in mind for John Edwards, too, eh? He'll want to run again soon, I should think.

You have got to be kidding. He's still engaged to his mistress. He has gotten exactly what he wanted. You may not be familiar with Christianity, but in that religion, when one repents, one is actually expected to change in a meaningful way. It's like getting caught in the middle of having sex with your neighbor's wife..."apologizing" during the act...and then finishing the act while your neighbor is still watching. Then walking out of the room with head held high. What's the problem? I apologized.

Give me a break.
