Politics: Move over, John McCain and Olympia Snowe. Lindsey Graham of South Carolina is fast becoming the Democrats' favorite Republican as he partners with John Kerry to push cap-and-trade through the Senate.
Earlier this year, eight Republican congressmen made it possible for Waxman-Markey, the 1,400-page job- and economy-killing cap-and-trade legislation, to barely pass the House of Representatives. At the time it seemed dead on arrival in the Senate if it was brought up there this year.
Once again, as with their medical plan, the Democrats seek to better the odds by putting a GOP hood ornament on a Democratic clunker. On cap-and-trade, Olympia Snowe's role will be played by Graham as he partners with Kerry to commit the U.S. to the flawed science and disastrous economics of climate change.

Am writing Lindsey tonight and explain that HE is the reason the RNC is not getting another nickle from me....and I donated in 4 figures last year!
Are they all crazy? Where did this garbage come from. Kick them all out.
Sellout would be a better word then RINO IMHO!
Lindsey Graham is a dispicable little queer.
2010: Are you voting for liberals with their heads stuck up Obama’s butt or are you voting Democrat?
When they said “change”, they meant a one party system. :)
So do I.
Why don’t the Republicans in South Carolina demand that Graham come to talk to them and tell them why he is voting this way.
even Byrd and Rockefeller are against it.....they know better
al gore’s alien twin
What remains of the economy is to be traded to large corporations--no small business could afford the credits. So, a small number of mega corporations tightly controlled by the federal government and a dead economy. This is not socialism; it is textbook fascism. Anyone who supports this is a traitor or an idiot. Despite what people think, senators are not idiots (Sen. Boxer excepted); they are evil.
This is one of the most dangerous pieces of legislation we have ever seen, akin to the Burning of the Reichstag. Absolutely scream at your "representatives" in Congress over this.
Where is the GOP leadership on these people? Why aren't they calling him/them out? Face it conservatives, we have no party. The GOP pays lip service to us, and nothing more, then they get down on their knees and service the Dem party.
I'm sick of this crap. Who the hell speaks for us? The GOP is nothing more than a label anymore, a label that has lost all of it's former meaning. Worthless, and a shell of its former self.
I just looked it up. His last election was in 2008. We have a long time to wait. But remember we will. If there still are elections by then. I mean 2014 is like forever when you consider what is happening in the USA right now.
It’s not complicated. He knows McCain’s days are numbered in the Senate. He sees himself as McCain’s successor and wants to courted by both sides when he assumes the title of GOP Maverick. Not as liberal as Snowe but knows he gets the most press time when he’s sticking it to the GOP.
is he up in 2010?
the little bastid is pretty cocky now. He feels safe.
I agree, it is worse than the healthcare bill because it affects every business.
I think you hit the nail on the head about both Graham and McCain. Graham has always seemed too, shall we say, feminine. I’ve also long believed that we haven’t been given the whole story about McCain’s stay at the Hanoi Hilton.
Ping.
