Politics: Move over, John McCain and Olympia Snowe. Lindsey Graham of South Carolina is fast becoming the Democrats' favorite Republican as he partners with John Kerry to push cap-and-trade through the Senate.
Earlier this year, eight Republican congressmen made it possible for Waxman-Markey, the 1,400-page job- and economy-killing cap-and-trade legislation, to barely pass the House of Representatives. At the time it seemed dead on arrival in the Senate if it was brought up there this year.
Once again, as with their medical plan, the Democrats seek to better the odds by putting a GOP hood ornament on a Democratic clunker. On cap-and-trade, Olympia Snowe's role will be played by Graham as he partners with Kerry to commit the U.S. to the flawed science and disastrous economics of climate change.

Graham has always seemed too, shall we say, feminine.

The best thing Lohan Graham can do is lobby for a Sea-Level-Reduction Czar position with the Obambi Admin., and get the #$%^* out of the Senate forever.

WHy doesn’t lindsay just go on and join the dems officially? As well as the Maine senators and McCain? I would rather we start from scratch and get real conservatives than ones who believe the republican Party left them. Until we purge RINOS we will never have any guts to do the right thing collectively.

Political cross-dresser Lindsey Graham announces presidential candidacy! Tacitly, of course, but it's there if you look.
Borrowing the triangulation strategy from bff McCain, Graham is flipping for the NYT/CNN/WaPo/Daily Worker ink (and likely future endorsement for GOP pres candidate) by undermining GOP (and not-coincidentally American) causes.
Only one problem.
WE SEE RIGHT THROUGH IT!
Lindsey Graham.
You will NEVER, EVER get the nomination. One Obama victory was quite enough.
