tomorrow, south carolina voters will decide whether to send him or elizabeth colbert busch to congress a new public policy poll, mark sanford is at 47%, elizabeth colbert busch is 46%. two weeks ago, colbert busch led by nine points, 50-41 after he faced trespassing allegations by his ex-wife, jenny. he will be in court, mark sanford will, on those charges thursday, just two days after the election. tonight, usa today reports cameras will be allowed in court. there will, of course, be many more cameras in court thursday if mark sanford wins tomorrow night. joining me for his first national interview since getting the big job, jamie harrison, newly elected chairman of the south carolina democratic party, and krystal ball. mr. chairman, how does it look? >> looks good right now. we really believe that elizabeth will pull this victory out tomorrow. i tell you, it will be huge, historic. it is almost the equivalent of saying some super democratic giant losing to a republican. but we're going to do that here in south carolina. >> krystal ball, on the poll on the race, it is 47% say they thi

what would you think of elizabeth colbert-busch if she had done jail time? hink of elizabeth colbert-busch if i told you she was caught running up a charge account bill? what would you think of elizabeth colbert-busch if she supported the failed stimulus plan? well, gee, that would do it right there. >> what about the push poll on the other side where they could say what would you think of mark sanford if i said he left the state in the middle of his job as governor to be with his mistress and claimed he was on -- oh, wait, that's not made up. >> you know, what i've already made up my mind what i think of that. that's not news to me. so this is, you know, typical, south carolina mud-slinging as we have seen it. >> south carolina really does have this reputation, usually sort of in republican presidential politics, because that's really the time we pay attention to south carolina. this would be kind of amazing if colbert-busch wins this. it looks like she is probably ahead right now, the wild card is this is such a republican district overall. but she will be

then i started thinking about it and a yeah, maybe they rather would have elizabeth colbert busch for term or fraction of one term. they think they can knock her off in 2014 and with a can't date they feel proud of and can get behind with more enthusiasm. i don't think anyone wants mark sanford back. he's a strange guy embarrassed his state and party. for him to represent republicans on capitol hill at a time the republicans are trying to rebrand themselves as something more acceptable to voters including women voters especially he's probably not the guy they want i have not there. why not have elizabeth colbert busch for one term, recruit a strong republican candidate to beat her in 2014 and be done with sanford. i think that's probably what they were thinking. go ahead. >> i just wanted to add one thing. the way the house is set up now one vote is not going to matter on anything for the rest of this term of congress. it's not like 1993, where bill clinton passed his economic stimulus package by one vote or 1940, where f.d.r. got a peace time draft to prepare for world war ii by one
