I really thought South Carolinians were smarter than this.
“I really thought South Carolinians were smarter than this.”
Graham may be a weasel, but he’s also wiley: he knows he benefits from all of the competitors stepping over themselves for his seat, and presents himself as the solid, trusted choice. I imagine a lot of South Carolinians are just holding their nose for the devil they know because they don’t want to sort through a half dozen challengers they know nothing about. But in all likelihood, Graham wins and he knows it. Yet another reason I’m not a Republican anymore: the GOP is dominated at the leadership level by guys like him that stay in power by the sheer weight of incumbency, even when he despises his own rank and file party members.
Just fell off the turnip truck, did you? :-)
