Why in the hell not!
They can't find one man to run against linsey graham, or is it they don't want to find someone. If there ever was an example of the system being broken this is it.
Because these officials are otioseously moderate!
Please, for the love that is all sacred and holy, remove these rinos.
Conservatives get some gonads and start fighting BIG TIME!
The reason primaries are rare is because Senate campaigns are extremely expensive and unless the party leaders bless the challenger, the challenger doesn't stand a chance. So then why do the party leaders continue to support Graham (and other RINO incumbants)? Because the relatively few people who give the most money to and/or raise the most money for the state GOP, in general, and Graham, specifically, don't want to see their investments go to waste. They have spent a hugh amount of money bribing their boy -- I mean buying access -- and if they support the challenger and lose, then they run the risk of jeapardizing the relationship with the incumbant that they have brought -- I mean nurtured -- over the years. And financially supporting the challenger means starting from scratch.
You ain’t kidding. I can’t believe the good people of SC can’t scrape up anyone, a bum, to run against Lindsey. Hell, vote for his Democratic challenger then, just to make an example to other RINO’s.
If state Republican officials can not or will not find a replacement for Lindsey Graham, Saxby Chambliss, and Johnny Isakson, it will be time to abandon the Republican Party. I can’t suggest an alternative right now—certainly not the Anti-American Party of Decadence and Karl Marx (i.e. the Democrat Party)! But if the Republicans are accepting the de facto leadership of the likes of Teddy Kennedy—what’s the difference?
They had bloody wellbetter find somebody other than Graham to run next time or they will lose and lose big time. He needs his arse kicked NOW and not after he loses an election and just drifts away. He needs to be made an example of as does McCain. NOW.
It's very hard to primary an incumbent that the RNC decides to back to the hilt, which they will in Graham's case.
SC is going to need an independently wealthy candidate with the time and organization to challenge Graham himself, because the RNC certainly isn't going to be grooming a primary challenger to that POS Graham.
Why in the hell not!
Then it's incumbent on those of us who still care about the Republican Party and it's conservative principles and heritage to start working today to identify and push true conservatives into the primary process. Here in Georgia, Herman Cain is an obvious choice to replace Chambliss or Isakson. Imagine if you can, a Southern state sending a conservative black Senator to Washington. The point is that we have to begin working today to make sure that our conservative candidates are known throughout the state, that their positions on the issues are well articulated, that their volunteer and fund raising infrastructures are in place, and that the seditious behavior of the incumbents is not forgotten.
