I am going to enjoy watching Mace take it to this old effeminate establishment sellout - go Nancy girl...
Breitbart:
A primary challenger to South Carolina Republican Senator Lindsey Graham said the incumbent Senator may be vulnerable in 2014 because his embrace of the Senate's immigration bill has angered South Carolinians who are against amnesty for illegal immigrants.
Nancy Mace, who is the first female graduate of The Citadel, appeared on Breitbart News Sunday on Sirius XM Patriot channel 125 and said it was unfair to legal immigrants to award those whose first step was breaking the law.
"Amnesty does not sell down here," Mace said. "People are very upset with it."The 35-year-old wife, mother, and small-business owner said, though, that the Senate contest will be a "David versus Goliath type of race" and acknowledged it would be a "formidable challenge" and an "uphill battle" to knock off one of Washington's most establishment Republicans.
Graham, who was a part of the Senate's Gang of Eight that wrote the comprehensive immigration reform bill, has been harshly criticized from the right for his enthusiastic embrace of the bill. But Graham has a significant fundraising advantage over his opponents as an incumbent establishment Republican.
Still, Mace said South Carolinians are "very frustrated" because they believe Washington lawmakers are out of touch and think they know "better than the people."
For instance, Mace said the Gang of Eight in the Senate claimed the immigration bill would be deficit neutral when hardly anything in Washington is revenue neutral.
"When was the last time government gave us a number that was actually accurate?" she said.

Lindsey Graham Challenger Says Graham Is Community Organizer of the Muslim Brotherhood
by BC @ http://im41.com/archives/36428I guess this really bothered Graham. He took a break from trying to sneak the amnesty bill past conservatives, snarling at Rand Paul and Ted Cruz for trying to defund Obamacare, attacking Michele Bachmann's calls for an investigation into Muslim Brotherhood, and having dinner with Obama while a Republican Senator holds an overnight filibuster to say, "but, but, but I'm a conservative." "I really am!"
Via HuffPo
South Carolina state Sen. Lee Bright (R), who will take on Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) in the state’s primary in 2014, called Graham a “community organizer for the Muslim Brotherhood” on Tuesday.
In a conference call with supporters, Bright charged Graham with not paying enough attention to the people of South Carolina. “During the [congressional] recess, when I would hope that he would be around folks in South Carolina, getting their feelings on so many issues that affect their lives, he has instead chosen to take his time to be a community organizer for the Muslim Brotherhood, and that concerns me,” Bright said, according to The State.
When asked for a response to the accusation, Graham’s campaign sent out a statement highlighting the South Carolina senator’s conservatism. “Lindsey Graham has a proven track record of protecting our conservative values and fighting for South Carolina. He was ranked in the top 5 budget cutters in the Senate by the National Taxpayer’s Union Foundation, called an ‘ACU Conservative’ with a 92 score by the American Conservative Union, recognized as the Pro-life Legislator of the Year by SC Citizens for Life, awarded the highest honor given by the Enlisted Association of the National Guard for supporting our military, and maintains an “A” rating from the National Rifle Association,” Graham spokesman Tate Ziegler wrote.
