God do I want him out...but I see the 2012 GOP Presidential Primaries all over again. Three conservatives splitting the conservative vote; one RINO getting all the rest and with his name recognition he squeaks in.
I’m SICK of conservatives letting their egos and ambitions dooming us to RINO’s winning election after election. Two of these three need to drop out and soon.

Lee Bright is a new comer and he’s doing a great job at getting the word out.
re: If Linda loses primary, I expect him to run as “independent”
Yes, I think that is more likely. He can still side with the Democrats while taking money from RINO Republicans and most of his regular sources.
Unfortunately that is not always the case. See: Harry Reid, Claire McCaskill, Lisa Murkowski. Graham is well funded and his opponent would have to raise a ton of money, not necessarily as much, but somewhat close to Graham’s campaign stash. Plus never underestimate the RNC to demonize and undermine the true conservative candidate.
I don’t think you can support Graham and call yourself a Republican at the same time.
I don’t think he can run as an independent after losing toe GOP primary. Doesn’t SC have a “sore loser” law?
A “sore loser” law prohibits a defeated primary candidate from appearing on the general election ballot for another party. South Carolina is one of only eight states that permit electoral fusion. All but three states prohibit failed primary candidates from appearing on general election ballots.
That’s a BIG 10-4 good buddy!
Eroding, like the seashore,, blame it on global varming, yur Compadres all do, Sen. Grahamnesty
It should erode...the guy is a horse's ass who should never have been elected in the first place. He is an ineffective panty-waist who just gets pulled around by the nose by McCain and the lib bunch.
