Unless the Census data is not as expected for South Carolina, redistricting won't matter federally here.  We'll have two minority majority districts that will go Democratic, and with what remains, I can't see there being anyway to not have the other five districts be at least lean Republican.  At best, a pro-Democratic gerrymander would be able to draw a district that Spratt would have a chance of being reelected in, but which would be expected to go into the hands of GOP if any other Democrat were running.  Since the Senate is not up for grabs, even if a political tsunami hit this State out of nowhere, we're not going to see a Democratic gerrymander.
