If a candidate runs as a Conservative and consistently betrays those values, all the money in the world won’t help.

Ask Romney.

“All of these other candidates are going to split what’s left. Graham squeakes by with 52%..”

Not going to happen. The ads running against Graham have dropped his approval rating from 74% to 41%. South Carolina had a liberal RINO - Bob Inglis - who was defeated in the primary runoff by 71% to 27%. Trey Gowdy beat him handily. Graham is in big trouble.

Yes Graham has tons of money, but do you honestly think he can get to 50% in a 5 man race in this political climate?

For those new to the discussion of this primary contest ... Lindsey Graham Looks Extremely Vulnerable in South Carolina

Bob could be called a RINO, but not a liberal.

“Connor is perfectly suited to attack Graham on perhaps his most glaring vulnerability – the lies he told about his military service during the early stages of his political career,” we wrote recently.

Graham's most glaring vulnerability is his position on issues important to conservatives. If Connor can't battle him on those then step back and let the other two conservative candidates do it.

Me thinks Limpsey knows his political days are numbered. My fear is what he might do with out the restraint of having to lie to his constituents.

You really think that Inglis is not a liberal: Republican Rep. Bob Inglis Blasts GOP For Denying Global Warming

Former GOP Rep. Bob Inglis pushes market-based climate-change ideas

Okay, he’s a fascist.

BTW, Graham has been officially censured by the party in SC. That's not someone that can win 50% of the vote in the primary.

Gowdy has gone squishy. He caught the Inglis disease.

the more candidates against Graham, the better for Graham, because they split the opposition-to-Graham vote.

Not when you understand how primaries work in South Carolina:

Yes, the National Republican Liberty Caucus.

FYI, this is the group that helped propel Cruz, Lee and Paul to victories in their primaries....which were all considered long shots at one time as well. Now look what’s happened.....those three are major national players. The RLC has studied all the SC candidates - and looks at Bright as the next member of this group of modern revolutionaries.
