Swing Conservative
I know this blog is supposed to be a No Politics Zone. Still, for those of you with any interest in politics itself, as opposed to political positions -- and the former is always something I am interested in, regardless of the latter -- this is a very interesting article about Lindsey Graham (R-SC), and the phenomenon of "swing conservatives" in congressional politics. Worth reading.

Very interesting reading indeed. I always find it refreshing to see a progressive thinker advance his ideas regardless of the party line and seemingly not worried about reprisal. It is however a little depressing (to me anyway)to see how much time and energy he had to put forth on policing others. I know its important but issues like Abu Garib, the Clinton impeachment, and the little coup to topple Gingrich, all seem counterproductive in the light of Healthcare, Social Security and Inteligence. Maybe progressive thinking on the latter would reduce wasting time on the former.
