Why does Lindsey Graham get so much coverage?

Or so it seems to me. Seems to me I've seen him often on NBC evening news. He's not a long-timer, so what's the deal?

1. He doesn't drool?

Some of those Republican Senators are so dumb, it would look like the interviewer was beating up on them.

He also gets the spotlight when the subject is the military or litigation because he was a military lawyer (Jag) in the reserves, I think.

5. you're right he does get mucho face time, as to the why well i'm going to guess

that he likes to pretend on some issues he's a "Maverick" which of course we know he isn't but i think he's scene how the press loves McCain so he's trying out that act.

10. Ugh..because

He's one of the thugs that led the charge for Bill Clinton's impeachment. As if being a repuke isn't enough to describe his pathetic character, this particular resume entry seals it for me
