Mark Sanford Endorsed By Tea Party While Seeking Second Chance In South Carolina

AP/The Huffington Post | Posted: 05/04/2013 2:34 pm EDT

Former South Carolina Gov. Mark Sanford (R) was endorsed by the Tea Party Express in the special election for South Carolina’s 1st Congressional District.

The endorsement came Saturday, three days before voting in the special election.

“While Elizabeth Colbert Busch attempts to portray herself as a moderate who wants to rein in spending and give lip-service to attacking Obamacare, we know this is not the case," Tea Party Express Chairman Amy Kremer said in a statement. "As the old saying goes ‘you are who you surround yourself with.’ In the case of Colbert Busch, that is Nancy Pelosi, Big Labor, and progressive Super PACs.

"We need leaders like Governor Mark Sanford in office if we are ever going to grow our economy and end the reckless spending and debt that plagues Washington," Kremer continued.

The special election is turning into an unusual match-up, the AP reports.

1. Mr.Stanford, reckless spending like your use of state planes, to fly to haircuts & visit women?

2. He will win. A few "God forgives me" and "I love Jesus a lot" and he will roll to an easy win.

3. White flagging it are you? Sorry, but that is just pathetic and weak.

5. Well, it IS South Carolina, after all.

6. But this is one where the Dem has a strong chance. To white flag like that is pathetic.

7. I thought about that when I typed it, but it is South Carolina. Religion trumps common sense in

most cases there, IMO.

4. Larry Flynt endorsed him too.. cause he's such a

sex pioneer. Of course teabaggers don't give a shit that he's such a liar.

There's that big bad Nancy Pelosi again.. boy, she gets around on those whiner screeds.
