I certainly hope she’s right. I’ve been trying to find video of the debate they had yesterday but it seems to be nowhere.

Signs popped upstate here for Cash, the only problem is the Elect Cash signs have “replace Lindsay Graham” at the bottom of them. I think that’s a no no in campaigning. The no no part having your opponents name on your campaign sign.

I haven’t actually looked at the sign recently, but what I described is the best to my recollection.

Are there electronic voting machines in SC? If so, then polls don’t really matter they just fix the vote. That’s how Reid stays in office even though he’s wildly unpopular in Nevada.

Keep up the good work and get rid of him.

Lindsey Graham should be the poster boy for supporting the Convention Of States. Repealing the 17th amendment eliminates the Lindsey Graham types for good! The 17th amendment is THE ONLY reason people like him and John McCain, Harry Reid and so on even exist.

Graham for the win.

Similarly, it seems that Pryor in Arkansas has taken a slight lead over Cotton.

Landreau is polling better in Louisiana.

At least, according to the media.

The Senate may not change majority rule. Many Republicans thought they had it in 2012, and didn’t. Same may be happening again in 2014.

Incumbency is always difficult to run against.

Multiple primary challengers are usually good for the incumbent. Not in South Carolina where if the aggregate challenge vote keeps the incumbent from achieving 50% of the total, then he is forced into a runoff. Most of the challengers to Flimsey Tinkerbelle have already signed a pact to support the eventual frontrunner.

Flimsey is in trouble no matter how much GOP-E money he gets.

The ONLY hope any challenger has is a GOTV effort.

Democrats do it with fraud and absentee ballots.

Give it up. All of these challenges to Republican incumbents in the primaries are going down to defeat. Even in Mississippi where there was a chance, the Barbour Machine has taken charge and Cochran will win. Time to suck it up and concentrate on beating Democrats.

Conservatives have had years to become disgusted with Graham, and no expensive, last minute TV ads to persuade them otherwise are going to have much effect.

I thought JimRob said no campaign ads here?
