I didn't trust any of the polls, and I would have been astounded if Colbert-Busch had won...

It says more about the low-intelligence voters of S.C. than anything. Not unexpected...

You're certainly correct... it looks like SanFord got more of the low-information voters than Colbert did. Usually low-information voters put the Democrat candidate over he top... but not this time... the tide is changing.

We are the victims of our own low standards.

I am a little bummed that another better Republican couldn't beat Sanford in the primary.

That seems to be the familiar refrain about the GOP, both for winners and losers.....don't you guys have better candidates to choose from?

Sometimes the primary voters make the wrong choices. Like rejecting Huntsman too soon.

And sometimes they make the RIGHT choices....Like Sharron "Second Amendment Remedies" Angle; Christine "I'm not a witch" McDonnell; Todd "Legitimate Rape" Aiken...

Personally, I hope they keep primarying the sane ones. I "read somewhere" that Lindsey Graham is next because he didn't goose-step and salute Rand Paul sufficiently for that ludicrous filibuster... I can only hope...

Colbert-Bush has 9-10 point lead over Sanford for the congressional district.
Bachmann may be under indictment by election time for federal campaign violations, but is already behind in the polls...

...and the list continues...

And I hope they keep consulting the polls by Rasmussen, FauxNews, Karl Rove, Dick Morris, Rush Limbaugh, Matt Drudge, and George Will, etc..... The polls will tell them exactly what they want to hear--all the way up to the point where the races are called for the actual winners.

So far as Sanford goes, it's amazing he had the nerve to run and sad the voters apparently just voted for a name they'd heard of.

We knew he had the "Bubba"-vote going in...

And it wasn't me that was paying any attention to Rasmussen... It was you guys... (And we KNOW how accurate they were in the last presidential election!)

You can't get away with changing the history of your bullshit... we're not stupid.
