GOP congressional candidate Katie Arrington is blaming her defeated GOP primary opponent, U.S. Rep. Mark Sanford, for her stunning loss to Democrat Joe Cunningham on Tuesday in South Carolina's coastal 1st District.

Meanwhile, South Carolina Democrats on Wednesday were savoring a stunning upset, as they reclaimed a U.S. House seat they have not held for almost 40 years.

What was Sanford supposed to do? Why blame him?

Could the Republican hold on "the new South" be about to crack and crumble apart?

Absolutely. Dirty secret about these southern states is that they are being over run with illegals. SC is Northern Mexico now.

Thank you Mazoli Simpson.

LOL. It's an invasion, not a self inflicted wound by Trump. It's everybody else's fault Trump is such a hated and miserable failure. Maybe if Trump urinated on the wetback kids in cages, people would recognize what a threat they are.

Post by: kevindavis007 on November 14, 2018, 01:16:11 pm: I used to remember when I was young when Conservative candidates who loss took responsibility for their own loss. Not blamiing people for not endorsing, not blaming deep state, or reasons.

It could be that she was a lousy candidate.

Post by: edpc on November 14, 2018, 02:04:00 pm: What a massive pile of BS. Sanford was repeatedly savaged by Trump. Arrington received his full endorsement, which is supposed to be political magic. It seems the voters were unimpressed, even after she survived a serious accident.
