Graham is right and wrong. He is right that conservatism needs to “fits the region and the state and the district.” He is wrong in that he doesn’t admit that he represents a conservative stronghold, resign and a let a conservative that better fits his state have his seat. Come on Lindsay lead by example.

I can stomach a RINO in California, New York or New Jersey, where the likely alternatives are named Barbara, Hillary or Jon; but a RINO in South Carolina is wholly unacceptable.

Yes, they do. But that's a two-edged sword.

United we stand, divided we fall. That's also a two-edged sword—one edge cuts those who won't accept anything less than their ideal; the other cuts those who try to force other factions of their coalition to accept that which violates the core values of those other factions.
