  [Tim Cameron] I’m extremely disappointed with a lot Senate Republicans right now, especially Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) and Senate Minority Whip Trent Lott (R-MS).

  [Tim Cameron] Something tells me the Palmetto Scoop won't be covering this story about Graham in the same fashion he covered an identical story about Romney. You see what happened was a couple weeks ago a picture of Mitt Romney holding a sign that read No to Obama, Osama, and Chelsea's Moma surfaced on the celebrity tabloid website TMZ. The
