Perhaps the horrid activities of the dems with Kavanaugh have woken Graham up to reality a little?

“...Lindsey Graham, i still dont trust him. The last 1 or 2 weeks havent changed that....”

LG is still an establishment RINO, regardless of his position on this kangaroo court.

In this case I’ll take Graham worst and all because putting Kavanaugh on the S.C. bench will have greater impact and out live Lindsey Graham view on immigration unless Graham is the deciding vote for amnesty or something like that

[[But I am almost starting to like Lindsey. He is coming around in a very unexpected way.]]

Give him a month or so- He’s pining for a job, after he gets it he will be back to betraying the party likely

The line from his speech that you quote as an excerpt is worth the price of admission in itself.

Liberals are going insane because they think this will mean the end of Roe v Wade.

Truly sickening how adamant the crazed left is about being able to continue to kill babies, in America.

[[as he may well have turned the tide in a number of areas,]]

That’s my frustration with the man- He can be very powerful- say some truly amazingly powerful things, and then in a week or so say something totally boneheaded which betrays the party- I wish he’d be consistently brilliant and powerful and loyal to the party on matters of republican policy

As long as the majority of GOP Senators are Bush League Republicans we will always have the specter of amnesty hanging over our heads.
One more amnesty and we lose everything.

I am thinking that after a successful election for R’s he may want the Attorney General job when it becomes quickly vacant.

Me too! Honestly I think McCain was holding him back..he had a leash around his neck..with McCain gone the REAL Lindsey is coming out..yes Lindsey is still for amnesty but who knows, maybe he can be swayed away from that issue as well

I think the Liberals see their last, best whack at a Supreme Court seat is circling the drain.

They will be on the other bus for donkey’s years...and they are not liking it

Let's give the devil his due. Lindsey Graham deserves praise and glory today and I'm not going to dilute it for any reason. Today, let's pull together and fight this satanic attack against Judge Kavanaugh and hail Senator Graham.

Hamilton explains what the constitution covers and what it does not. The Convention explicitly rejected the idea that only those powers specifically enumerated are constitutional.

The problem is that the powers enumerated leaves the means of carrying them forward unrestricted.

See Hamilton’s essay on the constitutionality of the National Bank for a description of what is constitutional and what is not.

I think that view will change as well as more RINO’s leave.
