Thanks for the post. Just a bit of insight, this response was to the comments made here by Mr. Graham:

Amen! If the ailing Republican Party would embrace more Libertarian ideals they might get more of us under that not so big tent of theirs. They had a chance during the primaries to take advantage of a true organic grass-roots movement but decided to marginalize the Ron Paul Revolution. They and their media lapdogs launched an all out liberal style"Joe the Plumber" attack on Dr. Paul and his supporters. How'd that work out for you Lindsey??

Mark Sanford is the man.
He should be the candidate in 2012 and appoint Ron Paul as the Treasury Secretary with instructions to disassemble the Fed.

It doesn't matter what these two political insiders squabble over, we Dems will have a "Blue Dog" to go up against them in 2010. I have been told a guy named Dobbs is going to run and already has up a website, www.electdobbs.com

Lindsey Graham is a left wing Democrat with some of his actions. What is the real difference between his sector of the Republican Party and the conservative and libertarian branches of the party. Its obvious that he is nothing more than a shill for the Democrats who sounds more like a liberal every day. Remember John McCain also is considered to be more Democratic based than most Republicans. To remember that Lindsey Graham was a big supporter of John Big Government McCain. Remember McCain didn't work in private enterprise hardly any of his life so he is another big government liberal in disguise

Graham is a RINO. We did it his way with McCain. I planned not to vote for McCain/Graham then Palin was put on the ticket. She and only she prevented a 60-40% loss.
