It’s not just South Carolina Republicans who bring us more than their share of The Crazy. That no-name Democrat who didn’t run a campaign to speak of but still managed to win the party’s nomination to challenge Sen. Jim DeMint (R-SC)? Well, he has an outstanding felony charge against him for allegedly showing obscene photos to a South Carolina college student.

Honestly I’m not sure what that charge is. Showing someone an obscene photo? I’m not sure I’ve come across that being criminally charged before. The AP story doesn’t make any reference to the student being a minor. We’re trying to figure our more on this. But there’s your Democratic Senate nominee in South Carolina.
