[Just mythoughts]

Lindsey Graham is McCain lite. He adores the media spotlight just as much but he knows his place. Knowing his conservative supporters would be vocal in their opposition show premeditated thought in his actions, and purpose to gain alllll that explaining limelight.

He could have demanded a "pure" filibuster from the get go and would not have needed allllll that limelight.
