Lindsay Censured by (non-Graham) Crackers

The Lexington County Republican Party in South Carolina voted late Monday to censure Sen. Lindsey Graham for his recent support for a compromise on cap-and-trade legislation.

The Lexington GOP is now the second county party organization in a matter of months to censure Graham after Charleston County leaders approved a similar resolution in November. But unlike Charleston County, Lexington is one of the most conservative counties in South Carolina and is considered a bellwether of Republican sentiment in theย state.
