“I really, really pray we can get every Freeper behind this effort and every poster at every other grassroots conservative website because this will be an enormous effort.....”

I hope we can pull this off and get rid of this weak sister. He’s a disgrace to Republicans in a conservative state such as South Carolina.

I’ll be supporting his best primary opponent. It actually won’t hurt for there to be multiple Republican challengers if that helps keep him from getting the 50% needed to avoid a primary—and thereby needing to go to a run-off. A run-off is the best chance to defeat him—similar to the approach Ted Cruz’ took to defeat RINO David Dewhurst (the GOPe candidate) in Texas.

It will be important that a competitive ‘Rat primary is held also so the Dem’s get out in vote in that primary (thus making them ineligible to vote in a SC Republican run-off if I’m understanding SC election law correctly).

Unfortunately, with his name recognition and large campaign war chest, little Lindsey will be difficult to knock off—but it’s definitely possible. It will be important that ALL true conservatives be dedicated to getting rid of this fraud who betrays conservatives at every opportunity.

Yes, it’s an uphill battle but definitely doable if the right candidate is prepared to drive all over the state and meet the voters and make his case.

Graham has been sanctioned by several counties in SC so there will be a nice source of in-state activists who will likely help in a grassroots effort.

Lindsey relies on his name recognition, the fact that he’s been around forever and that he can use his war chest and influence in Congress to buy loyalty from county chairman and party stalwarts.

To knock him off you need to generate excitement, an actual race and wake up the voters and overwhelm his “soft” supporters, the kind who turn out even when it’s only him on the ballot! If there’s an actual race then we can outnumber them. I dont think he has any grassroots... how could he? he’s terrible!
