Graham defuses talk of Cabinet role
The Post and Courier, Charleston, SC ^ | 2008-10-04 | Brian Hicks

You see them together everywhere these days: The streets of Iraq, the halls of Congress, the campaign trail.

If Lindsey Graham isn't with John McCain, there's a good chance he's representing him on the TV talk shows, in the Wall Street bailout talks or at the vice presidential debate.

But South Carolina's senior senator said that doesn't mean he'd follow McCain to the White House.

"Those folks who like seeing my smiling face will be seeing me around here for a while," Graham said Friday in North Charleston. "I will stay in the Senate if re-elected and serve out my second term."

Personally, I wouldn’t mind if Lindsey Graham went to McCain’s cabinet. We could probably get a much more reliably conservative senator from South Carolina than him.

I’m voting for Bob Conley. He’s far more conservative than Graham.

If he does not vote with Dingy Harry he will wind up on the toilet bowl committee. You need to get an industrial strength clothespin and vote for Grahmnesty.

Tom Ravenel would have been a good primary challenger. Too bad he turned out to be a cokehead.

I was thinking restroom attendant but I don’t think that bag of gas could handle the job.
How do these jerks get elected?

I’ve said it before..... Lindsey Grahm and Joe Liberman will deliver the Senate to President McCain.

Control of the Senate trumps a cabinet job.
