A Quickie: Palmetto State Poop-Out?

By Sniffles

After a wild week in the 2012 Republican clown college, early turnout in today's South Carolina primary appears to be low.

Gosh, how can that be? We thought after all that hollerin' and stompin' at the debates, Palmetto State Republicans were loaded for bear. Why aren't they lining up for blocks at the polls? Are they going to let a few little tornadoes keep them away? C'mon!

On the other hand, maybe they don't want to bother — since their votes won't be fully counted, many will be lost, and the official results won't be known for more than two weeks. At least, per the Iowa model.
