I remember when all of the posts first came out announcing Ravenel as a Rudy guy. The FR pom poms were working overtime touting his conservatism. In the past few days, I’ve seen him mentioned several times as a potential candidate for Lindsey Graham.... I guess that ain’t gonna happen—Unless of course, he didn’t inhale. LOL

Ravenel was touted as a Rudy guy.......all nice and conservative.....even mentioned as a potential opponent of Lindsey Graham.... I guess that ain’t gonna happen— Unless of course, Ravenel didn’t inhale.

Maybe Ravenel will use the patented Rooty excuse-----"It's terrorism, that's what it is. I know how to prevent this----I have the leadership and know-how----cuz I was there on 9/11."

The Lindsey Graham haters on FR sure know how to pick 'em. Not only was their "true conservative" pushing the GOP to nominate an abortion-luving, gun-grabbing, gay-cheerleader Arnold clone nationally, but he is also a cokehead (the latter fact about him possibly influencing his judgment on the first)

The irony is that if Lindsey Graham ever did start voting like the guy that the "True conservative" was pushing, they would actually have a point that Lindsey Graham had "gone maverick". Instead, Lindsey Graham's voting record in the Senate resemblences their hero Fred Thompson (solid on right to life, guns, pro-family, pro-ANWR drilling, pro-tax cuts, pro-spending cuts, pro-WOT, but weak on immigration and Friend of McCain)

I'm still trying to figure out how they can say it's "Treasonous" for Graham to vote that way, but when Fred is weak on illegals and pro-McCain, we should promote him to leader of the free world. I certainly wouldn't want to put someone in charge of this the nation if they voted for something I consider "treasonous"

The same people telling us Fred Thompson is a winner and a conservative leader were saying that about Alan Keyes, George Allen, and Tom Ravenel. Not a good track record for picking "winners" here. Fred's a nice guy, but until we see otherwise, candidates like Duncan Hunter, Tom Tancredo, and Tommy Thompson are stronger conservatives and much better records of leadership in office.
