Graham is the first Republican on the Judiciary Committee to support her. He may be the only one.

The sad thing about this RINO's position is that in order to get out of the Judiciary Committee Judge Sotomoyer has to have at least one "Yes" vote from a Republican on the committee. If the Republicans in the Judiciary Committee were unanimous in their dissent, she is rejected.

This is the only way we can defeat her nomination.....and Lindsey Graham is blowing it for the party.

I just called Sen. Wimpy's office .. I urge all to do the same. My last point was, as a former member of the military, a JAG, ask him to honestly consider how her appointment on SCOTUS could impact our brave military on future court issues. I said 'she's a radical, and he's a wimp!"

Graham, Lindsey - (R-wannabe - SC)

...have to have at least one GOP vote on the committee...

I dont think that is correct is it? The Dems have majority status on the committee, so a party line vote would still go to the floor for a final vote, I believe. Grahams vote is irrelevant.

Not for His party, just his stated party.
