It’s a little bit early, but i thought it would be nice to start a countdown of the final year (if that) of Governor Mark Sanford’s employment by the state, so in the spirit of the holidays, I give you the twelve months of Sanford:

On the twelfth month of Sanford, my governor gave to me,

• 12% unemployment,
• 11 ethics charges
• 10 new governor candidates
• 9 more ethics charges
• 8 years of bullsh•t
• 7 more ethics charges
• 6 years in Congress
• 5 more ethics charges
• 4 more ethics charges
• 3? (13?) trips to Argentina
• 2 soul mates
• and 1 long-winded apology (and one more ethics charge)

Happy turkey and tax-free gun buying everyone.
