The “Forgiveness Tour” of S.C. Gov. Mark Sanford made its way to Lancaster, S.C. Thursday, with a visit to USC-Lancaster – one of several satellite campuses of the University of South Carolina that in a perfect world would be wiped from the face of the earth.

Seriously, people … we’ve got way too many institutions of higher learning in this state, which is one reason we spend way too much money on higher ed.

Sanford chatted with students as he made his way across campus. When a student mentioned plans to major in journalism, Sanford broke out in a grin.

“Don’t go to the dark side,” he said, glancing at reporters nearby.

Afterward, Sanford went to the Lancaster Golf Club to speak to the Rotary Club. The governor said he was hesitant to make an apology for his Argentina trip this summer because the media could portray the visit as an “apology tour.” Nonetheless, he went on to apologize to the audience of 75 people.

“I’m clearly not running for president,” he added. “We clearly got that established. Which leaves the question, where do we go from here?”

Honestly, governor?  With you in the saddle, only God knows where we go from here … and since you’re so tight with the Almighty, maybe you could spare us all the drama and just tell us where we go from here?

Or would that be making a deal with the “dark side?”
