Mark Sanford: Comeback Complete

Former S.C. Gov. Mark Sanford is back …

Nearly four years after his promising political career imploded in a tangled web of passion and deceit, the scandal-scarred two-term Palmetto State governor pulled off a remarkable comeback victory against a well-funded Democratic opponent, Elizabeth Colbert-Busch.

In fact the special congressional election that every late poll predicted would come down to the wire wound up being a blowout. With 99 percent of precincts reporting, Sanford scored a resounding nine-point victory over Colbert-Busch.

According to Sanford his victory sent “a message to Washington D.C. and a messenger to Washington D.C.”

2013 FIRST CONGRESSIONAL DISTRICT RESULTS

Mark Sanford – 76,991 – 54.3 percent
Elizabeth Colbert-Busch – 64,223 – 45.3 percent

“This is damn sure a red state,” one Republican lawmaker told FITS. “He killed her.”

Talk about a rapid reversal of fortune …

Trailing by nearly ten points with less than two weeks to go before Election Day, Sanford appeared dead in the water – unable to get out of his own way after trespassing allegations made by his ex-wife revived chatter about his personal life (and doubts about his fitness for office).

But Sanford (belatedly) managed to pivot the race away from his chronic need for forgiveness and back on the bread-and-butter fiscal issues that defined his first turn in the U.S. Congress – namely his staunch fiscal conservative record.

“A guy came up to me the other day and said ‘you look a lot like Lazarus,'” Sanford said.

With his victory, Sanford reclaims the congressional seat he occupied from 1995-2001 – during which time he staked out solid free market ground on a wide range of issues.

Will Sanford 2.0 follow suit?

We hope so … although the governor’s refusal to embrace his free market roots during a recent debate with Colbert-Busch gave us sufficient cause for pause so as to refrain from endorsing his candidacy.

Hopefully the governor’s chronic need for acceptance won’t cause him to compromise his principles any more than he already has.

Brian, you must have your head up your fucking ass since you are too young to know what REAL family values are all about in the traditional South. Last time I checked, abandonment of your sons on Father’s Day, lying about your absence, no call no show (any employer would FIRE someone) for six days, and then calling his wife (inadequate) and endorsing his “soulmate” as his lover. Let’s not forget he paid the LARGEST ethics fine in SC history. I suppose you checked your logical and since of reason at the door when you made your post here huh? I am from Charleston originally and call myself a proud conservative South Carolinian. You appear to be misinformed, a follower, and lack a moral compass for someone who will represent the 1st Congressional Dist in DC/SC. What the hell are you thinking. The worst thing in this country is an absence of morality and honesty. Sanford has demonstrated a CONSISTENT track record of lying and dishonesty which any businessman or businesswoman would walk away from the table and say….”are you fucking kidding me man?”

However, if you want a vapid, dishonest, child abandonment, cheating, lying, unethical, etc, etc etc person representing SC’s 1st Congressional Dist JUST because he has an R behind his name….well, congratulations, young man. You got your wish. You are as vapid and vacuous as he is.

But my question is, Colbert would have been a better choice? I won’t begrudge you your point if it is neither is fit to serve, but really? Sanford is a conservative. No bout a doubt it.

Democracy fails when the people don’t hold politicians accountable. Republican or Democrat, some politicians do not deserve to hold office. Sanford is one of those politicians, and now that he’s won the hardest election night of his life, he is pretty much guaranteed to be yet another self-serving career politician.

Sanford’s affair has fuck-all to do with his ability to run this government, but his use of state funds to facilitate his affair should be pretty goddamn disgusting to someone who claims to want government spending to be cut.

Quit with the “when libruls do it” horseshit. Clinton faced impeachment, Sanford never fucking did. Gingrich did everything in his power to give Clinton the bird despite having his own affairs.

If Sanford does that, he’ll be on the fast track to obscurity with the establishment GOP and won’t make a damn lick of difference, but at least Fox and Rush will rejoice and play his soundbites with glee. There’s only two outcomes for Sanford, sell out like a complete hypocrite or be an irrelevant, occasional GOP yes/no vote.

What he will do is what he did back when he originally held that office and not give two shits about his constituents or the people of SC, as well as what he did while governor: completely fail at reforming a vast majority of state government, watch as things deteriorate extremely quickly, not accomplish half the shit he said he would do, and alienate himself from the people he is supposed to work with to get shit done.

Of all of the 16 Republicans, Sanford might not have been THE worst, but he was definitely one of the worst. His protege Haley is doing a wonderful job continuing his broken legacy as governor. I’m guessing she’ll find herself a nice cushy job as a representative next. Might as well continue the downfall, right?

Like fuck you won’t. Bill Clinton can be used as the excuse to voting for hypocritical “family values” Republicans who can’t keep it in their pants. He already has been used as such in this page.

No shit, unions might cause you to be paid more than the minimum wage in your job. Of course, with your level of intelligence, that might be all you’re worth.

Unions have worked out fabulously in the rust belt, car industry, and in the northeastern corridor! No major industry has escaped their special kind of help. That’s why so many folks from the southeast are moving up there to take all of those union factory jobs, and why all of the plants are leaving the southeast and shifting to the northeast. Uh, wait a minute…

Dearest,

You are glorious and I hope you really understand that. You do not need a therapist to help you figure your place in the world. You are special and unique and fabulous in a whole host of ways that are worth a much longer conversation.

Have been having a few email problems as I am getting email through an aircard at the farm, where access to computer world is more than tough. Please let me know if you have gotten my last two eamils (sic) so I know it is working in getting to your part of the world …

Another glorious day outside. Hope you are doing well, and am anxious to hear about your week. Know that I miss you. Unbeleivably (sic) hard to imagine it has been a week. Please also send your mailing address as I want to send you an insignificant something next week when I am back in civilization that I think you might find interesting given our conversation.

Want to write an indepth note with some thoughts on our visit when I know you are getting these emails. Hugs and much love. M

Sweetest,

It was indeed a long day. I am most jealous of your salad under the palm tree.

Three thoughts in one note now that I have a moment. One the travel schedule is about to get real busy (and this distresses me for the way it may well make it more difficult to get your notes over the next few weeks), two unfortunately all the feelings you describe are mutual, and three where do we go from here?

One, tomorrow leave at 5 am for New York and meetings. Will think about you on its streets and wish I was going to be there later in the month when you are there. Tomorrow night back to Philadelphia for the start of the National Governor’s Conference through the weekend. Back to Columbia for Tuesday and then on Wednesday, as I think I had told you, taking the family to China, Tibet, Nepal, India, Thailand and then back through Hong Kong on world wind tour. Few days home then to Bahamas for 5 days on a friends boat for the last break of the summer. The following weekend have been asked to spend it out in Aspen, Colorado with McCain — which has kicked up the whole VP talk all over again in the press back home.

Two, mutual feelings. I have been specializing in staying focused on decisions and actions of the head for a long time now — and you have my heart. You have oh so many attributes that pulls it in this direction. Do you really comprehend how beautiful your smile is? Have you been told lately how warm your eyes are and how they softly glow with the special nature of your soul. I remember Jenny, or someone close to me, once commenting that while my mom was pleasant and warm it was sad she had never accomplished anything of significance. I replied that they were wrong because she had the ultimate of all gifts — and that was the ability to love unconditionally. The rarest of all commodities in this world is love. It is that thing that we all yearn for at some level — to be simply loved unconditionally for nothing more than who we are — not what we can get, give or become. There are but 50 governors in my country and outside of the top spot, this is as high as you can go in the area I have invested the last 15 years of my life — my getting here came as no small measure because I had that foundation of love and support so critical to getting up in the morning and feeling you could give and risk because you already had a full tank of love in the emotional bank account. Since our first meeting there in a wind swept somewhat open air dance spot in Punta del Este, I felt that you had that same rare attribute. Above all else I love that inner beauty about you. That gift of yours is going to make a tremendous difference in (The State deleted sons’ names) life — and in anyone’s life who is blest to be touched by yours — you need to rest very comfortably in that fact. As I mentioned in our last visit, while I did not need love fifteen years ago — as the battle scars of life and aging and politics have worn on this has become a real need of mine. You have a particular grace and calm that I adore. You have a level of sophistication that is so fitting with your beauty. I could digress and say that you have the ability to give magnificently gentle kisses, or that I love your tan lines or that I love the curves of your hips, the erotic beauty of you holding yourself (or two magnificent parts of yourself) in the faded glow of night’s light — but hey, that would be going into the sexual details we spoke of at the steakhouse at dinner — and unlike you I would never do that!

Three and finally, while all the things above are all too true — at the same time we are in a hopelessly — or as you put it impossible — or how about combine and simply say hopelessly impossible situation of love. How in the world this lightening [sic] strike snuck up on us I am still not quite sure. As I have said to you before I certainly had a special feeling about you from the first time we met, but these feelings were contained and I genuinely enjoyed our special friendship and the comparing of all too many personal notes (and yes this is true even if you did occasionally tantalize me with sexual details over the years!) — but it was all safe. Where we are is not. I have thought about it and in some ways feel I let you down in letting these complications come into a friendship that I hope will last till death. In all my life I have lived by a code of honor and at a variety of levels know I have crossed lines I would have never imagined. I wish I could wish it away, but this soul-mate feel I alluded too is real and in that regard I sure don’t want to be the person complicating your life. I looked to where I often look for advice and counsel, and in I Corinthians 13 it simply says that, “ Love is patient and kind, love is not jealous or boastful, it is not arrogant or rude, Love does not insist on its own way, it is not irritable or resentful, it does not rejoice in the wrong, but rejoices in the right, Love bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things and endures all things”. In this regard it is action that goes well beyond the emotion of today or tomorrow and in this light I want to look for ways to show love in helping you to live a better — not more complicated life. I want to help (one of Maria’s sons) with film guys that might help his career, etc. I also don’t want you walking20away (sic) from some guy (I take it the younger guy you mentioned a t dinner) because of me — and what we both have to see as an impossible situation. I better stop now least this really sound like the Thornbirds — wherein I was always upset with Richard Chamberlain for not dropping his ambitions and running into Maggie’s arms. The bottom line is two fold, my heart wants me to get on a plane tonight and to be in your loving arms — my head is saying how do we put the Genie back in the bottle because I sure don’t want to be encumbering you, or your options or your life. Put differently, given I love you, I don’t want to be part of the reason you are having less than an ideal week in what sounds like a cool spot.

Lastly I also suspect I feel a little vulnerable because this is ground I have never certainly never covered before — so if you have pearls of wisdom on how we figure all this out please let me know … In the meantime please sleep soundly knowing that despite the best efforts of my head my heart cries out for you, your voice, your body, the touch of your lips, the touch of your finger tips and an even deeper connection to your soul. I love you … sleep tight. M

PS. I will make it a point in NY tomorrow to drop by a store and get that movie I promised to send your way … I am encouraged to know you will not keep it beside the bed least we have tangible evidence of two pathetic figures missing each other far too much to live a few thousand miles apart!

I guarantee that T-Rav is popping up somewhere at some time….he’s already indicated his desire to be back “in the game”.

It’s clear that anyone with a “R” next to their name is capable of winning regardless of their backgroup as long as the region they are running in is predominately Republican.

I believe it to be the same with Dems, but the hypocrisy is that Republicans are supposedly running based on morals/ethics/character as part of their platform.

For those who do not know who Donna Karan is, look up at the internet.

Poor Jenny, Mark wouldn’t let her buy a dress for one of the parties, she had to borrow her sister-in-law”s dress. She also bought clothes at Walmart’s.

Am wondering if Mark realizes that she is very materialisic and thinks nothing of spending money on herself whereas Mark is so frugal. That will be an interesting marriage.

Jenny wore a “borrowed” dress so she wouldn’t have to say where she bought it and how much it cost. Rumor around the mansion at the time was that the dress cost more than 10 grand. Jenny controls her own money and Mark never told Jenny what she could and could not spend.

Same old, same old May 8, 2013 at 8:53 am

Jenny’s wardrobe is fine but certainly not extravagant and my guess is she’d rather see her money go to her priorities: sons, education, decent housing, and charities rather than herself.

Sanford is likely to hang on Chapur’s coat-tails for extravagant vacations (without his children, unlike his marriage days) and other entertainments and get away with it because of his “reputation.” The weasel!

Sanford’s Comeback Gives Hope to Liars

CHARLESTON, S.C. (The Borowitz Report) — Former South Carolina Governor Mark Sanford’s stunning upset in a special congressional election on Tuesday served as an inspiration to liars across the state and beyond, prominent members of the lying community said tonight.

“In America, liars are always made to feel bad about ourselves, as if what we’re doing is wrong,” said Harland Dorrinson, fifty-seven, a liar from suburban Charleston. “Mark Sanford’s victory tonight is a victory for the lying lifestyle.”

Carol Foyler, thirty-six, a liar from Myrtle Beach, echoed those sentiments: “For the millions of dishonest children across America, tonight Mark Sanford has given them hope that someday, they can be somebody.”

At his victory rally in Charleston, the former governor acknowledged the liars in the audience and said that his victory sent an important message: “Every lie, no matter how big or small, has value.”

“As your Governor, I abused your trust. And as God is my witness, as your congressman, I will abuse it again,” he said, to thunderous applause.

Mr. Sanford, who had been behind in the polls in the waning weeks of the race, owed much of his last-minute surge to the support of the lying community, exit polls showed.

According to those exit polls, Mr. Sanford held a three-to-one lead among voters who described themselves as liars, cheaters, or sleazebags.

Furthermore, the polls showed, those same voters felt that Mr. Sanford’s opponent, Elizabeth Colbert Busch, did not have the lying experience necessary to serve in Congress.

DNC should ask for a refund. Does she get to keep any of that left over 2 million? I don’t think she ever thought she would win. She apparently just used this campaign as a fundraiser for her family.

God Bless Mark Sanford. Ya just defeated the devil.

I very rarely EVER believe in banning any poster. I’d much rather see your idea, no matter how bad it may be or no matter how much I may disagree. Expression reveals who you are.
But the fact that FITS has let you post on here AT ALL is baffling …
The lowest (and most worthless) form of expression is FILTH…and that is about all you are, aside from attempted shock value…
Remember Obscenity defined as “I know it when I see it.” When you post, that is all there is to see.
You bring nothing of any intellectual or entertainment value, except to show the mind of the average, gutter-level homosexual, whether you are one or not.
Security personnel can scan e-mail and posts for terrorist threats, you should be watched for suspicion of pedophilia or the traits of a serial killer.
You want attention, yet you cannot draw it honestly, so you’ll stoop to any level to get it. There are others like you, but they are not nasty or so desperate…
People like you are dangerous, in addition to being the exact opposite of what you want to see yourself as being.

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.

Unlike hurricane forecasters and Big T, I only make a prediction once. Prolly shoulda added 5 points for Rand Paul’s endorsement.

That didn’t happen, I was secretly hoping Jenny would show up at the victory party. Would have loved to see Mark’s reaction and Belen’s jealous looks. Guess that only happens in the movies.
Watched Sanford on CNN, he said he appreciated Belen flying across the continent because she wanted to be with him if he wins or loses. How sweet????
He also said that once the people get to know her, they will love her. That guy is NUTS who can love a w—-?.

Sanford’s win Has NATIONAL Ramifications, because it signals big losses for Ds in 2014. That is a GOOD thing.
I expect you will begin to see a lot of desperation by the media, to attack the GOP. So far that has only worked to undo them more.
In a Perfect World: A Conservative, who lives an honorable life, will take Sanford out in a Primary in 2014. But Sanford is a good follower, so he may do well in Congress. If so, everybody forgets his disgusting actions toward his children and his former wife.

Steve May 8, 2013 at 8:34 am

Dude, a monkey could run as a R in this state and win and it has nothing to do with NATIONAL ramifications. This state does nothing that predicts national ramifications other than some stat that had to do with our choosing a candidate in the primary who always went on to become the candidate…which didn’t happen.

This is the only state that can be controlled by one party for 25 years, that state be run into the freaking ground, and the idiots still keep getting elected.

GrandTango May 8, 2013 at 8:39 am

Newsflash: No Republican can get (never has gotten) elected to the White House w/o wining SC. That pretty much shoots the crap out of your convenient little theory.
Also: Race-Haters, Blacks, Cheaters, Convicts, illegals voted in Droves for Obama. But he is not on the ticket in 2014…
And Sanford’s win shows just how badly the Ds are viewed w/o the Cult of Obama.
Sanford ran against Liberalism, as much as anything, and he beat the H#!! out of it…

If he is sincere in all his psychobabble this time, then all he accomplished was proving Jenny right about appreciating faith, family, friends, and happiness coming from within. What a schlep that he didn’t realize that when it could have made a difference to an intact family.
MBC strikes as emotionally needy in a calculated way and he always seems to be bolstering her up, talking about her wonderfulness. I guess that is how she forces emotional reciprocation. Together they make a perfect pair as long as they satisfy each other’s needs. She lets him play false hero. Together they look like Grant Wood’s American Gothic; both are very pinched looking from their days of deceit.

By the way when Hillary visited Benghazi they put a Special Ops Team on standby just in case. You Democraps have a lot of nerve!

Here’s the real story according to the AP:

“Under the settlement, Sanford admits he was in contempt of the divorce
decree then and on previous occasions. The judge agreed to withhold
sentencing Sanford as long as he complies with the provision in their
divorce settlement that he not enter his ex-wife’s Sullivans Island,
S.C., home without her permission.”

http://www.washingtonpost.com/

He’s plead guilty to contempt of court. Sentencing has been
“miraculously” withheld by the Judge, this case is not over. Here are
the legal consequences available to the Judge according the the SC Code
of Laws:

“SECTION 63-3-620. Penalties for adult violating title.

An adult who wilfully violates, neglects, or refuses to obey or perform
a lawful order of the court, or who violates any provision of this
chapter, may be proceeded against for contempt of court. An adult found
in contempt of court may be punished by a fine, by a public works
sentence, or by imprisonment in a local detention facility, or by any
combination of them, in the discretion of the court, but not to exceed
imprisonment in a local detention facility for one year, a fine of
fifteen hundred dollars, or public works sentence of more than three
hundred hours, or any combination of them. An adult sentenced to a term
of imprisonment under this section may earn good time credits pursuant
to Section 24-13-210 and work credits pursuant to Section 24-13-230 and
may participate in a work/punishment program pursuant to Section
24-13-910.

HISTORY: 2008 Act No. 361, Section 2; 2010 Act No. 237, Section 90, eff June 11, 2010.”

http://www.scstatehouse.gov/co

Narcissistic convicted criminals that claim their own God will
continuously forgive them ignore the Laws of State and wind up
recidivists. When that eventuality occurs the judge will have no choice
other than to toss a seated US Congressman into the slammer.

Jenny Sanford and their sons have past due justice awaiting them. They will have it.

Go ahead and name any politician that plead guilty to contempt of court in world history the day after election.
