Kind of like reality in microcosm. In this fallen world, anything worth celebrating has some sullied aspect to it.
That's why the political realm cannot be expected to elevate us too much. A guy like Sanford reveals himself to be capable of the depths of scumbag-ism, but he'll generally vote the pro-freedom way in the House. We need the numbers, and there's nothing wrong with a sigh of relief about that.
Not that the Pubs as a party shouldn't keep scouting for those who bring character to the table as well as the requisite ayes and nays.
UPDATE: Hillary Towers at NRO's The Corner gives Sanford the ass-kicking he so roundly deserves.
