    Mr. Greene’s campaign, which amounted to an occasional series of awkward media encounters, still managed to bring in almost 30% of the vote on Tuesday — a long way from the 61% of Republican incumbent Jim DeMint, but hardly a pittance. Linda McMahon spent $50-million dollars to get 480,000 Senate votes in Conneticut; Mr. Greene spent about $50-million less than that, give or take a few hundred bucks, and received more than 300,000 votes in South Carolina. He won 10 counties. Maybe a lot of people like comics in those areas.
