This is really, really funny down here. The old-guard Dems are gnashing their teeth. They didn't stand a chance against DeMint anyway, but probably wanted a more eloquent mouthpiece to campaign and get their points across.

His opponent has filed a protest and all sorts of people are trying to come forward and say there were problems with the electronic balloting. Sounds like sour grapes to me.

In an election they have no chance to win, the Democratic Party doesn't have a candidate it believes in.

This is South Carolina though- I would not be surprised to find out the GOP paid his 10k and change filing fee.
