Begs the question is why the Karl Rove Republicans gave him money in the first place?

National Republicans are pulling the plug on Mark Sanford’s suddenly besieged congressional campaign, POLITICO has learned — a potentially fatal blow to the former South Carolina governor’s dramatic comeback bid.

Blindsided by news that Sanford’s ex-wife has accused him of trespassing and concluding he has no plausible path to victory, the National Republican Congressional Committee has decided not to spend more money on Sanford’s behalf ahead of the May 7 special election.

Thank goodness.

Good...

But he has an "R" after his name. He must be AWESOME!!!!!!!

Whoever the hell gave 10 cents to this guys camapaign is nuts. Like Lindsey Vonn style nuts.

So let me get this straight. They don't discourage him from running, initially . They don't field, and back, a solid conservative without the baggage of old Mark . And now that he's the candidate, they cut off the money. And they wonder why they're a joke...

I don't see any difference in Mark Sanford trying to regain his political career than Clinton, being president at the time, had an affair with a girl young enough to be his daughter. Clinton is still loved and adored by over half the country.

Another thing...Why did Sanford's ex-wife not report the incident when it happened on February 3rd?
