COLUMBIA, S.C. (AP) - The rally seeking South Carolina Gov. Mark
Sanford's resignation at the Statehouse will go without a key
Republican Party leader.

Republican National Committee member Glenn McCall said Wednesday
he's satisfied that legislators have gotten involved enough in
calling for Sanford's resignation that he doesn't' need to push
Thursday's rally. He had called for the rally in an effort to force
Sanford to step down after he revealed his affair with woman in
Argentina that he later called his ``soul mate.''

Democrats now are pushing the event.

Democrat activist Marilyn Hemingway of Seneca is leading
organization efforts and set up anti-Sanford Facebook sites
including ``Impeach Mark Sanford'' and ``Mark Sanford Must
Resign!''
