Talking back to the teabaggers

Lindsay Graham, of all people, at a town hall meeting where the right-wingers got all up in his face about supporting Sotomayor, among other issues:
“I’m not going to leave the Republican Party,” Graham said when one questioned asked him why he hasn’t yet joined the Democrats. “I’m going to grow it. We’re not going to be the party of angry white guys….. [W]e’re going to move this party and this country forward. If you don’t like it, you can leave.”
Might be the first time I’ve heard a Republican say something like this. Has Limbaugh thrown him out of the party yet?

Not really surprised as I seem to also remember him positively(a rarity in the GOP in recent years)during some hearings while Rumsfeld was being questioned.Perhaps that was just an exception but at the time I was glad to hear a Republican speak up.The more that finally distance themselves from the Rush-Sean infected members,the better .
