Lindsey Graham went on Fox News yesterday to continue undercutting Ted Cruz and other conservatives on their strategy to defund and delay ObamaCare, and force the President’s hand on the budget. Graham stated that stopping ObamaCare was “unrealistic” and “a bridge too far”.
Lee Bright, the upstate Senator challenging Graham in the 2014 Primary, quickly responded, saying, “Lindsey Graham’s time in Washington is a career too far. He is so astonishingly out of touch with American conservatives, and he obviously has no idea how the leadership of Ted Cruz is playing outside the beltway. He and John McCain are the best friends of the Obama-Reid-Pelosi agenda, and it’s time we bring Graham home, and leave McCain to surrender to the Democrats by himself.”
Bright went on to add that “Lindsey Graham really doesn’t understand what a train wreck and an abomination that ObamaCare really is. If he did, he wouldn’t have been on the wrong side of the cloture vote, wouldn’t have taken his office phone off the hook, and wouldn’t have advocated for preferential treatment for himself and his staff. His behavior is just shameful, and yet, I feel like every time he speaks he’s airing an attack ad against his own campaign.”
Bright predicted that there would be continued outrage and backlash against Graham as his Fox News quotes penetrate the internet and talk radio, saying, “Graham may be below 30 percent in the next re-elect poll. He may be so blinded by the beltway group-think that he believes South Carolina Republicans are like New York or Massachusetts Republicans, but he’s about to find out this is not the case.”

Is Lee Bright even relevant?
He is if your car has no motor and no floor pan and you need to get somewhere fast.

I have no idea what you just wrote about.
I hope Graham burns in hell. Word is spreading faster and faster that he spits in the face of South Carolina voters. He gets down on his knees for and sucks the you know what of criminal illegal Mexicans. Is Graham also owned by the Mexican Drug Cartel? No doubt, the military weapons contractors have him in their pockets the way he is always wanting to go around killing people in other countries – including women and children.
To many it seems, it would be worth the time spent in jail for punching Graham in the eye. I would not do it. But the talk I here everywhere, many would.
That gets on my nerves when people use war analogies constantly.
I saw Lee Bright give a speech one time. I wouldn’t vote for him for student council, much less the US Senate.
Bright predicts Graham will be below 30%. What is the prediction on Bright?
State Senator Bright may believe that Ted Cruz is showing leadership, but many republicans think he is contributing heavily to the fracturing of the party and doing tremendous damage tot he prospects for 2014 and 2016.
Vote Ted Cruz 2018! Yeah baby!
The least Lee could do would be to ask if Lindsey and Al Franken ever talk………at least make the “surrender” sound funny.
Wasn’t Lee Bright a lot sexier when he used cocaine? Let’s bring back booger sugar Bright!
