Delleney to Introduce Impeachment Legislation Tomorrow
State Rep. Greg Delleney, R-Chester, says lawmakers would have explored impeachment immediately, had they been around. He says the results of that investigation aren’t needed for the House to begin work on impeachment and he plans to introduce a resolution Tuesday that accuses Sanford of dereliction of duty for abandoning his post without telling anyone in the chain of command where he was going.
“This is just getting the ball rolling,” Delleney said last week.
This was inevitable. If it actually make it to the House floor for a vote it will easily pass. I wouldn’t be surprised if the House leadership tries to stall it at first, but ultimately the pressure will be there to vote on it. Sanford’s goose is cooked.

Who benefits from the impeachment?
Isn’t this just a distraction or political posturing or was his breach of conduct worthy of THIS sort of thing? Looks like hay-making, to me.
Anyone?

Being that Andre Bauer would become governor, I don’t think any of us benefit.
