Regular readers of this blog know that I am committed to the defeat of Senator Lindsey Graham of South Carolina. After working for his election in 2000, I have been repeatedly disappointed in Graham. He campaigned as a conservative but he has shown himself to be anything but. I’ve come to believe that he has no core convictions. He does what he thinks will move him closer to running for president.
Now Graham is supporting John McCain. As if I needed further proof that Graham is no conservative. Today I received the following email from the McCain campaign.
Dear Friend:
As you evaluate the various candidates for President of the United States, the interview (right) contains facts and insights we all need to know about John McCain.
Conducted just a few days ago, this brief, very candid interview truly is amazing. In just a few short minutes, you will get an unforgettable insight into this unique man. The words are softly spoken but the emotional impact is profound.
The three of us felt so strongly you should see this that we decided to co-sign this personal message. Please take a few moments to view this powerful clip. And you will probably want to share it with your friends. Thank you.
U.S. Senator Lindsey Graham
S.C. Speaker of the House Bobby Harrell
S.C. Attorney General Henry McMaster
The interview refereed to was a televised interview with John McCain. With the Republican field of candidates as poor as it is, McCain is convincing people that he is actually a conservative and he’s using people like Graham to do it. If we don’t see some real conservatives enter this campaign soon, we run the real risk that McCain will be the nominee.
I once believed that McCain could never get the nominations. My belief was predicated on the notion that there would be actual conservatives running. To date there are no conservatives in the race with the national name recognition and clean record who are capable of winning anything.
Folks, the Republican party is in trouble. Worse, conservatives are in trouble and that means this country is in trouble.
