Adam Fogle had sent me a heads-up to this item on his blog, The Palmetto Scoop (My favorite thing about his e-mailed updates is that he calls them "TPS reports."):
Rumors are swirling across the Palmetto State that Gov. Mark Sanford, who has until now remained neutral in the race for the White House, will endorse former Mayor Rudy Giuliani in his bid to become the next president. The Palmetto Scoop has been contacted by numerous sources who are reporting a “feeding frenzy” among national and local reporters to confirm the buzz.
But apparently, the rumor didn’t pan out:
Rumors swirled that Gov. Mark Sanford would be joining the former New
York mayor’s campaign. But Sanford spokesman Joel Sawyer said the
governor would not be making an endorsement this week. Neither would
First Lady Jenny Sanford, Sawyer said.
That means the Giuliani supporter I had queried about the TPS report is probably relieved now. He had responded thusly:
I promise you I know nothing about this. In fact, I made a rather contemputous remark about Sanford at our campaign meeting yesterday. Maybe I shuldn’t have.
That’s true. If you can’t say something nice…

Our blogs would be pretty dull “If you can’t say something nice.”
Palmetto Scoop does go out there on a limb from time to time. It’s fun to watch.
I had to weigh in over there when they picked on my man Joe Wilson for attending a Rudy event in Greenville (?)
We like Joe down here in the Lowcountry and if he wants to go to a Rudy event most of us would think that’s just fine.
P.S. For the record, I’m still “undecided” and hoping to see more of the candidates down here SOON!
