Sad but true.
Too bad he put the face on the wrong end.
BTTT
And this is what Graham was "saving himself" for: he wants to be McCain's running mate in 2008.
It bears repeating. I posted elsewhere that:
Q. Am I wrong or what, but wasn't Graham on the right side during the impeachment of x42? Maybe I'm mistaken..... If he was and my memory is correct, what happened to him?
A. What happened to him? He went out on a limb and endorsed McCain for prez in 2000.
At the same time, little ole Lindsey got bit in the butt by the Ambition Bug. Standing next to McCain, he got stars in his eyes. Inside that little brain of his (emphasis on little), he started dreaming that McCain was his ticket to the big-time.
IOW, Graham got the same sickness John Edwards got in 2004.
He sees himself as the young, charming and (in his mind) handsome Senator who becomes VP for a wildly popular President (mistaking MSM boot-licking for populist popularity), which then leads him straight into the WHITE HOUSE as the follow-on prez.
Hey, Lindsey: Pride goes before downfall.
And I am going to do everything I can do to ensure that you fall next time you're up for reelection. Your primary opponent is going to be the most well-funded person in history, if I have anything to say about it.
McCain needs to take a dirt nap. I am so livid at McCain that, at this moment, I would be tempted to vote for Hillary before voting for this vile traitor. These vile humans are so obsessed with the Presidency that they would sell their soul to SATAN to gain power. If SATAN said to McCain that the price of being President would be that he (McCain) would set in motions events that would destroy this Country and our way of life, McCain would not hesitate for one second to take that deal. ... God help this Republic.

You got those pictures right! Sad, but true.
The WSJ editorial RUsh is referring to is also interesting.
Senate Charade
http://opinionjournal.com/editorial/feature.html?id=110006734
"The fervent hope of these 14 is that President Bush will spare them from such controversy by nominating someone acceptable to the left--say, another David Souter. Their agreement therefore warns Mr. Bush that he is obliged "to consult with members of the Senate, both Democratic and Republican, prior to submitting a judicial nomination to the Senate for consideration."
We hope he ignores them. Mr. Bush is under no obligation to reward Senators who have mistreated his nominees in this fashion. He owes far more to the supporters who helped him win re-election and his party pick up five Southern Senate seats last year. To vet his nominees with this Gang of 14 is a virtual guarantee of judicial mediocrity--of a lowest-common-denominator choice or a philosophic cipher.
Especially in the wake of this deal, our advice is the same as it was after Election Day last year. If Chief Justice William Rehnquist retires, promote Associate Justices Antonin Scalia or Clarence Thomas, and replace him with a distinguished conservative jurist such as Michael Luttig, Ted Olson, Michael McConnell, Sam Alito or for that matter Miguel Estrada. The President is granted the power to nominate judges under the Constitution because he is the only official elected by the entire nation. He shouldn't cede that authority to 14 Senators in desperate search of political cover. "
Whoever McCain runs against I shall vote for. Just out of spite.
Just a reminder of some of what we're dealing with here.
Mr. Moderate himself
