God’s Messenger Guarantees Sanford Win

Looking for the election returns from the hotly contested South Carolina first congressional district?

Don’t bother … God has already guaranteed a win for former S.C. Gov. Mark Sanford.

Three years ago – when Sanford was fighting to hang onto his last political job – a veteran Columbia, S.C. politico-turned-author received a message from the Almighty.

The message?

“Go see Mark Sanford.”

And that’s exactly what Ben Greer did. In fact the retired University of South Carolina professor – who advised a pair of Palmetto State ex-governors – was in his old office at the S.C. State House within the hour.

Sans socks, and as he recalls – “looking like a bum.”

That’s when he delivered the Lord’s message to the scandal-scarred chief executive.

“Do you know God has forgiven you?” Greer says he told Sanford.

“I think so,” Sanford is said to have responded.

“Then why haven’t you forgiven yourself?” he asked.

Greer then recalls (in borderline homoerotic prose) the lengthy, tearful embrace he and Sanford shared when the former governor realized he had neglected to ask – and receive – forgiveness for his 2009 extramarital affair from himself.

How homoerotic was Greer’s recollection? The term “nipple to nipple” was actually used, people.

Seriously … dude said “nipple to nipple.”

“Our shirts were soaked,” Greer says, recalling the torrent of tears the pair shed together.

Hmmmm …

Of course the offering and receipt of this long-overdue self-forgiveness wasn’t Greer’s only message for Sanford – the ex-operative brought with him a bold political prognostication.

“You’re going to run again,” he told Sanford. “And you’re going to win.”

In fact Greer tells FITS he never doubted that Sanford’s congressional comeback would be victorious – even two weeks ago when Sanford fell behind his Democratic opponent Elizabeth Colbert-Busch by nearly ten points.

“I told him he just needed to pivot,” Greer says of his most recent conversation with Sanford.

“I agree with everything you just said,” Sanford agreed.

Of course that pivot took a little longer than it should have …

Anyway, if momentum is any indication it appears as though Greer – or rather God – is going to be correct.

We should know one way or the other for sure in about two hours …

UPDATE: Dude was right …

What we more need in South Carolina is an Old Testament God.

Less forgiving . . . More smiting.

Poxes. Not third chances after no true repentance and a mere few months in abeyance.

This is a good win for Sen Rand Paul’s endorsement and an indictment against Pelosi and Harpootlian.

Representative Mark Sanford (R-SC)

…now, go and fix the accounting in DC and stay out of trouble!

The GOP could run a polished turd in that district and win. If you are a Democrat you should just give up. Dems couldn’t even beat a two timing narcissistic sociopath that claims fiscal responsibility after using taxpayer money to cheat on his wife.

Seriously, if you are a Dem and you don’t see how hopeless it is in that district you are as stupid as the GOP voters that elected him.

Sanford wins by 4%.

When it happens, I may change my handle to Nate “High-oh” Silver, since changing handles is all the rage now.

Obama is in TROUBLE.

Sanford’s win will just EMBOLDEN the Republicans against Obama…

W/o Obama drawing out the race-hate-motivated, multiple voters in 2014…The democrats will get STEAMROLLED…

And the GOP will figure Bashing Obama at every turn, stopping his agenda, is JOB SECURITY!!!…

Obama may as well just stay on the golf course…and enjoy the billions he spends on all those Vacays…his policy onslaught is OVER…

He may have a hard time avoiding prosecution…

Don’t give a shit about Sanford, or the 1st. Will give a shout out to Professor Greer. Took his class back in ’06 with a bunch of athletes. By far the most laid back prof I ever ran into. Really good guy.
