Even as a Republican voter, I am disgusted with Graham and several others. They have been inside the Beltway too long and are so narcissistic they think that Americans hang onto their every word.

His conservative primary opponent will get a few dollars from this Northwesterner.

This further bolsters my suspicion that 2008 will be a landmark year for connoisseurs of black humor. (And for connoisseurs of Tom Lehrer. Remember "They've got to be protected/ All their rights respected /Till somebody we like can get elected"?)

I can't wait for someone to run against him in the Republican primary for Senator in 2008. I did not vote for him in the Republican Primary in 2002 and will not vote for him in the Republican primary of 2008, if he has opposition.
The man got his training under John McCain. As both would say: I want to wake up in the morning and read nice articles about myself in the WaPo or NYT. I want to straddle the fence, until the splinters are in my ass.
John McCain, one of the bravest and most honorable Americans in my lifetime. Lindsey Graham is a man of honor and dedication to his family unsurpassed in by no politician in Washington.
I would absolutely vote for neither in a Republican primary.
Just disagree with them politically, and think we can do better.
But, if it comes to it in a general election, Graham against a democrat, and McCain against a democrat, I would pull their levers.
Fighting within the party does not lead to party desertion, only trying to correct from within.

Just what we need, every member of congress setting their own foreign policy. For gosh sakes he needs to work within the system if he doesn't like what's going on.

It is not wise to send mixed messages like this. I expect Graham is like most senators and is greatly enamored with himself.
