RINO Hunting Begins in SC

Love it,...... 2010 & 2012, deserve more than changing one ugly hat to another. Seems fitting as the Civil War's first shots were at Ft. Sumter, SC.

NYT: Lindsey Graham 'Slammed Back Home' for Being a RINO

The New York Times Caucus blog reported moments ago that Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) has been censured by the local Republican Party in his home state "for many of the positions he has taken that do not represent the wishes of the people of South Carolina."

In essence, he's getting slammed for being what conservatives call a RINO -- Republican in name only.

    The executive committee of the Charleston County Republican Party voted unanimously on Monday to rebuke Mr. Graham “for many of the positions he has taken that do not represent the wishes of the people of South Carolina, such as: passing a ‘cap and trade’ energy bill, bailing out banks and granting amnesty for illegal aliens.”

    Lin Bennett, the chairwoman of the local party, told the Charleston Post and Courier that party leaders were “fed up.”

    “The feeling is if you’re not going to uphold the platform, then why bother to run as a Republican?” she said. Ms. Bennett also said that about 50 members of the executive committee voted on the censure, according to the Post and Courier. But the move closely follows the fallout from the November elections, where conservatives pushed hard against centrist Republicans over candidates who don’t adhere to a narrow base of core principles.


It's RINO SEASON!!!!!

He's bullet proof..... He just recently won re-election without even breaking a sweat, and that was right on the heels of the whole Grahamnesty debacle where he called everyone a bunch of racists and threw a hissy fit on the senate floor

Don't count on it.  Different atmosphere in his state than there was then.
