Et Tu, South Carolina?

I can understand how RINOs might carve out a niche for themselves in places like Maine and Washington state and New Jersey, but, c'mon, South Carolina? Lindsey Graham is doubling down on "me-too-liberalism" by jumping on the crap-and-raid bandwagon.

  1. Graham has been a waffler for a long time. I have to wonder if he thinks he can "moderate" the Democrats, or some other nonsense. C'mon, Lindsey, you are working with John Effing Kerry, the senator who produced virtually no significant legislation in all the years before he ran for President in 2004. And since then? Not much, as well.

    A minor correction: the Congressional delegation from Washington State is primarily Democrat, and generally hard core at that (notably Patty "I hearts Osama" Murray and Jim "I hearts Sadam" McDermott). You can thank the hippie infestation along the I-5 corridor (i.e., western Washington) for that.

    AFAIK, there's only one genuine RINO, some kook on the west side, who sucked up to the Dhimmicrats bad enough to warrant a recall attempt (I think -- at least, there was some noise about it).

    Just so y'know......eastern Washington leans red.

  2. Jeff: I can't recall his name - he was, for years, the lead investigator on the Green River case - but he's a Republican congressman who voted for Cap and Trade, and I was thinking he represents a district in Washington state.

  4. Graham and McCain are so far to the left that they have given the GOP a bad image the last several years.
    And they are prime reasons the Tea Party folk are made at the GOP and have been for 8 months.
    But then the GOP as a party mover to the left more and more from 01 to right now.

  5. Some of these politicians don't realize how deep the resentment really is. They took that beating in 2008 as a move to the center while in substance it was a move to the right as most of the dems that took Republican seats actually ran as MORE conservative than the incumbants.

    What is needed are conservative candidates running against incumbant Republicans and winning.

    Here in Arizona J D Hayworth is contemplating taking on McCain. That would have been unheard of here a few years ago. Rumblings from the base are starting to reach the surface. Hope it resonates before 2010 is over.
