Forgive me, fellow FReepers, but I voted for Flimsey Tinkerbelle in 2002.
There was no one else to fill the gigantic shoes of Sen. Strom Thurmond. I remember meeting Grahamnesty at a fundraiser in Columbia in June of that year. He gazed up at me with the eyes of a fourteen year old girl and I was sickened.
But the Democrat on the ballot aspired to be a member of the Congressional Black Caucus and was to the left of Ron Dellums, so I held my nose and pulled the Republican lever.
Again, my apologies.
As I recall, Graham didn’t used to be this bad, did he? I used to really like him. Now, not so much.
