Default Just when you thought South Carolina politics couldn't get any sleazier

Just when you thought South Carolina politics couldn't get any sleazier, Democratic leaders begged their surprise Senate nominee to quit yesterday upon learning he's facing charges of flashing porn at a coed.

Alvin Greene, 32 and unemployed, shocked the Palmetto State's political establishment Tuesday night when he came out of nowhere - he didn't even have campaign signs - to beat well-funded fellow Democrat Vic Rawl, an ex-judge.

But Greene's win - credited to the race's low interest and his higher position on the alphabetized ballot - apparently wasn't the only shocker the Army vet had in store.
S.C. Dems split over surprise Senate nominee Alvin Greene, accused of flashing porn at a co-ed

I keep trying to think of something clever to say. . .but word almost fail me.

[C]"redited to the race's low interest and his higher position on the alphabetized ballot".

I am curious though, since the candidate is black, will Janeane Garofalo tell us that calls for him to withdraw are the results of racism, "straight up?"

Didn't think so.
