Great news!

National Republicans are pulling the plug on Mark Sanford's suddenly besieged congressional campaign, POLITICO has learned - a potentially fatal blow to the former South Carolina governor's campaign against Democrat Elizabeth Colbert Busch.

Blindsided by news that Sanford's ex-wife has accused him of trespassing and concluding he has no plausible path to victory, the National Republican Congressional Committee has decided not to spend more money on Sanford's behalf ahead of the May 7 special election, according to two senior party officials who have been briefed on the decision.

"Mark Sanford has proven he knows what it takes to win elections. At this time, the NRCC will not be engaged in this special election," said Andrea Bozek, an NRCC spokeswoman.

The move comes hours after Tuesday night's report by the Associated Press that Sanford's ex-wife, Jenny Sanford, filed a court complaint accusing him of trespassing at her home in early February - which would be a violation of the terms of their divorce agreement.
