Sorry, what it says about the people from his Congressional district. - Scoble, Alex Scoble

It says that far better than Democrats, they understand splitting tickets is moronic and party with majority member count rules in House, no matter what you might think of individual member - WarLord

I agree that Sanford is repellant of course, but that doesn't seem to be enough to stop candidates from being elected anywhere. - Soup in a TARDIS
