Lindsey Graham: “I am not bound by the rule that if it passes in the Senate 2 to 1, it is a good idea. That may come later in my life…”

“I am not bound by the rule that if it passes in the Senate 2 to 1, it is a good idea. That may come later in my life, but not right now. This is not reform. When I signed up in 1996, I never envisioned that reform would be that we would require a local TV station to sell some Federal politician an ad at a cheap rate during the Super Bowl almost a year before the election. That is not reform. And that should not kill any effort to reform the way we do our campaigns. By making the campaigns start a year earlier, or 7 or 8 or 9 months earlier, and giving a Federal politician a better deal than we give somebody living in our own State, that is not reform, that is bad business. Vote for the amendment.”
