The 2014 Republican Primary in SC is crucial to return SC's senate seat to conservative control. There are good candidates running.

However, it may take a well known politician to defeat Senator Graham. Huckabee is running lots of radio ads extolling the virtue of "conservative" Senator Lindsey Graham. The GOPe seems to support Lindsey.

We cannot afford to send Lindsey back to Washington.

In the past 11 years, I don’t recall Lindsey ever hosting a telephone town hall meeting. This is telephone town hall meeting #2 in three months. I confess, I listened to all of both of them.

I got a phone call from my recently traitorous Congressman, Doug Collins who voted for the Boehner/Ryan Debt Capitulation, telling me he was live on the phone and ready to have a town hall meeting. I hung up on his a$$. I’d already told him I won’t ever be voting for him again.

My congressman Lindsey Graham does not have the courage to return to SC to face his constituents in a live town hall meeting, so he hides behind the telephone town hall meeting.

I am not happy about this type of representation.

Well, I certainly hope you and like-minded voters put this SOB out of office soundly. He is a traitor and an enemy to honest hard working people.

I wouldn’t be happy either. That’s the mosty weaselly thing I ever heard of as a mode of “connecting” with potential voters in order to allow questions.

Lindsey is such a slimy little twerp. He is fooling no one with these phony "townhall" meetings, complete with setup "seminar" callers and falsely implying any random caller has a good chance to ask him a question.

I hope that somehow Lee Bright is able to lure him into SC to some sort of debate or at least opportunity for the locals to have a real chance to ask him some tough questions rather than planted softballs.

It's for good reason that several counties in the state have CENSURED Mini McQueeg.

I completely understand how SC’s primary will operate.

To me (and I could be wrong), Graham will be one of the candiates going to the run-off. I’m not sure who the other one will be.

I’ve followed this race for mnay months now and can’t quite get a good feel for who the best candidate is against Graham in the run-off.

Commonm wisdom says that the candidates who don’t make it thru the primary will coalesce behind whomever is challenging Graham. Do all of you believe that to be true? I’m afraid the conservatives will beat up one another in the primary and the cash-depleted and bruised winner will face Graham.

Anyone wanna offer some serious input as to who the best candidate is (not just idelogically - but in terms of the ability to campaign, raise money and offer a coherent message) in South Carolina?

I guess Huckabee has plenty of rino viewers. Even though he said he wants the word “rino” removed from the English language. Then none of his viewers would be “rinos”.

This is the GOP elite strategy. Unfortunately, it disenfranchises the voters. That is why we need Trey Gowdy or Mark Sanford to enter the race.

Lindsey is a weasel and the telephone town hall is a sham. No more Shamnesties for Grahamnesty!!!

It was obviously one of those rigged telephone “townhall meetings” in which the questioners are all screened and approved supporters. I’ve heard them before myself.

Yes, I think you are right. It sounded like most of the callers were a bit too polished and were thanking Lindsey for all he does.

I am really concerned that we are going to be electing Lindsey for the third time, and that Lindsey will team up with his buddy McCain again and conspire in mischief.

No, they won’t…Lee Bright is running against Obama Reid Schumer by way of Graham, and not touching the others at all. That’s why Bright is dominating the challenger primary.

…and with the exception of one challenger’s social media trolls slamming Lee Bright, none of the challengers are running against other challengers.
