1. It's off the weird-o-meter

seriously. Like this dude that texted my daughter "I quit" and the dude that just left his keys on the counter and said "bye". They were both store managers. But, at least they didn't facebook quit.

2. Why isn't this on the front page? That bozo HIKING THE APPALACHIAN TRAIL was a headline for

weeks, and a comedy punch line for even longer than that.

Couldn't happen to a nicer guy....and for his ex, "Revenge is a dish best served cold."

Hell, I wouldn't be surprised if his kids might be thinking about changing their last names~! I wouldn't blame 'em.


Also--this guy is RUNNING UNOPPOSED? Some credible candidate oughta fire up a WRITE IN campaign against this nut--they could win!!! There's still time!!!

3. There's still a chance that he'll drop out

on facebook, of course

4. Does anyone know what will happpen in that case...does the race go to that independent candidate,

if Sanford should gather up his humiliation and, at long last, leave the public stage?

I have no clue as to how they run in it SC. Would it be left to the (shudder) governor?


Anyway, this is one of the best stories running on DU--it deserves way more attention!!!!

5. Running unopposed has its privileges

Perhaps he'll wait til after he is "re-elected"

to give his concession speech

6. Its just a matter of time

7. Then can't that wacky governor appoint herself...?

I really think the House PAC should find a red hot write in and throw some money at this one.
