Lindsey Graham says he's 'happy as a clam' after Kavanaugh hearings

South Carolina Republican Sen. Lindsey Graham, whose vocal and impassioned support for Brett Kavanaugh helped secure his confirmation, told Fox News exclusively on Sunday that Democrats' attacks on the incoming Supreme Court justice made him more "pissed" than he had ever been in his life.

Graham also told host Chris Wallace on "Fox News Sunday" that he had "never campaigned against a colleague in my life." He added: "That's about to change."
During a dramatic Judiciary Committee hearing in September, Graham seemingly energized Kavanaugh with a fiery condemnation of Democrats' tactics, which included questioning Kavanaugh about vague slang references in his high school yearbook.

“Boy y’all want power. God, I hope you never get it," Graham yelled at Democratic senators on the Judiciary Committee. "I hope the American people can see through this sham."

the ground a lot different than the fantasy world you've surrounded yourself and fellow repugs with. A world that's a lot more hostile towards you and your fellow cronies than you think.

It lacks a spine and lives upside-down in the mud.

I think he might be right on this one.

I'd say that's how all the Republicans feel about an actual representative democracy...they want to maintain more of an oligarchic structure.
