With the resignation of South Carolina Senator Jim DeMint late last year, then-Congressman Tim Scott was appointed to fill the senatorial vacancy until a special election can be held in 2014 for the seat, which in turn immediately sparked a dozen or more man race to fill the vacancy left in Scott's old House district, with too many politicians and celebrity relatives to memorize seeking both nominations.
And the results of yesterday's dueling high-pitched primary fights...
A universal face-palm, followed by a bout of dumbfounded jaw dropping and resulting in the ultimate shame and destruction of our once great Republic, as the Democrat nominee is none other then Stephen Colbert's sister (I wonder if he'll support her with his superpac?) and although the Republicans couldn't decide on one of sixteen choices, former Governor and divorced disgrace Mark Sanford is heading into April's runoff with 37% of the vote.
The voters of their national parties nominated a Comedy Central idiot's sister and overwhelmingly supported a immorally corrupt imbecile to represent them in the U.S. Congress... Are you kidding me, South Carolina?
Republicans will get another chance in two weeks to select either the adulterer who enjoys lovely trips to the Appalachian Trail with exotic Latina woman, or a no-name Tea Party member who used to serve on the City of Charleston Council and fought in Operation Desert Storm as a Marine.
And regardless of the runoff's results, Republicans are all but guaranteed victory... But do we really want the people to choose between a brain dead comedian's sister or a disgraced adulterer to represent them, even though they hoisted this idiotic choice upon themselves, in the House of Representatives? I think not..... So I believe a second look into Republican Curtis Bostic is in order, or else all hope is lost for South Carolina for basically ever.
What say you?
