Remember that Dewhurst was also declared the winner a month out as well.
Not my state. Full agreement cotton ... May South Carolina replace graham. Would be better for the nation, if can be done with an actual Conservative.
I guess the electorate of South Carolina are predominantly masochists.
Given that Obama was twice elected, I see no reason to be hopeful that the tyranny of the low-information voter or of the gibsmedat voter will dissipate prior to the 2014 elections.
That South Carolina has open primaries is also a significant contributing factor.
Be prepared to grind your teeth over the re-election of Fairy Graham.
The March primary in Texas returned John Wayne McCornin as the Republican RINO in the November Elections.
You cannot beat a 1% Rich RINO with a bunch of nobodies who have no money, no massage, and do not put up a fight
It is time for 3RD party options

How pathetic that they can’t find a candidate with spine and guts to run against Linda.
Amen to that cotton1706
Please SC, dump this turd.
If Senator Graham wins the Republican Primary June 10th or the possible run-off 3 weeks later, then S.C. gets a non-Constitutional conservative senator either way. But we’re far from the only State caught in this kind of situation.
FR poster who discourage S.C.’s conservative electorate BEFORE the election probably are secret supporters of the SCGOPe or are Democrats. It really is easy for the reader to discern.
The biggest disappointment I have is Sen. Tim Scott. I really thought he would be a good Conservative for South Carolina.
Unfortunately he decided to take part in the TV ads with Graham, which are saturating the airwaves, both claiming to be solid Conservatives.
I voted for Graham the first time he ran and have regretted it to this day but I won’t make that same mistake with Scott.
Another completely unbelievable article. The neo-cons are seeding these fake stories all over the net. Where does this stupid article back up its implausibe assertions that Graham is leading on anything? Oh, Graham is backed by the we-love-illegal-aliens Chamber of Commerce. Establishment Republicans also love themselves Lindsey. That’s certainly proof-positive that Graham will win.
Here’s the facts, FReepers. Graham has been polling somewhere between 37% and 42% approval ratings for a year or more, with both Republicans and democrats polled.
These articles are pure garbage designed to depress conservatives.
Bushlips.
“But Davis said he could do more for his libertarian-leaning causes in the state Senate, and that to run against Graham, he would need to raise a lot of money.”
On that at least I agree with Davis, if we are to reclaim our liberty the bulk of the work must be done from the State Houses and Senates.
We need to control education, we need to start teaching the central important of economic liberty again.
Furthermore our States must be a the center of the movement to take power back from Washington. They must be made into the weapon that can not only push Washington back into its box but keep it there.
It is thou their strength that we the people gain our power to vote with not only our stronger ballots but as free people with our feet.
