Mark Sanford of the Hiking-Appalachian-Trails Sanfords, is making a new political run – this time for his old congressional seat.

You know he’s sorry about what he did because he says he is.  You know Barack Obama is not a Christian because he says he is.  The difference is clear as black and white.

Sanford is taking his lousy butt out to meet the voters, and perhaps to love again.

“I’m not in any way unaware of how I’ve let you down. I’m not in any way unaware of my well-chronicled failings as a human being,” Sanford told a Hilton Head Island Republican group last week, in the first public speech of his campaign. “But I am equally aware that God forgives people who are imperfect.”

While through name ID, Sanford is heavily favored to win the primary in this heavily Republican District,  there’s gonna be some fun involved.

The winner of the Republican primary is likely to face off against Democrat Elizabeth Colbert-Busch, the sister of comedian Stephen Colbert, in the May special election. The Republican will be heavily favored in the conservative-leaning district.

Every now and then something wonderful happens in politics.  Honey, I gotta walk sideways to keep from flying about that race.

Thanks to Carl for the heads up.
