Do you have opinions about Jaime Harrison? Apparently he's running...

... against Lindsey Graham and claims to be behind 2% in the polls. I got a fund raising e-mail. I've never heard the name. What about the rest of you?

I can't remember all that he said but I remember thinking this man is going somewhere. I wish him luck.

I will give him my vote. Yes. He is only 2% behind Graham in the polls. If you have a few bucks to spare, please send them his campaign's way. We need all the help we can get down here.

Jaime Harrison (@harrisonjaime) Tweeted:
Sen. Graham is shameless. He removed his opposition to the Affordable Care Act from the homepage of his website after campaigning on healthcare in 2014.

He’s playing Washington political games when he should be delivering solutions to South Carolinians. https://t.co/Itl1USk0S3





I'll donate to a yellow dog to get Graham out of the Senate.

That's good enough for me. I donated to his campaign.

He rose up from poverty to attend Yale and Georgetown law and he's on the right side of all the issues. You can learn more about him here: https://jaimeharrison.com/about/

Has Hill experience, worked to organize the state party. Started to run against Lindsay Graham. When it was a quixotic run and through a ton of hard work he is making a race of it. If you can send him any money at all to send a message to that bum kisser Lindsay it will only help.

Jamie is a great guy and will make us proud in the Senate and help to restore its honor and Chuck Schumer the Leader!

I am impressed and hoping that he wins, because I think he will do a great job for the state. Lindsey needs to be sent packing, and it looks like Jaime Harrison might actually do that. Good for him & even better for SC.

He sounds so in tune, so focused on the right things, so ready to help his constituents. I want him to beat Lindsey Graham. I want him to trounce Lindsey right out of office. I don't even live in South Carolina and I am so excited for this to happen for the people who do.

just for the fact that he's inspired enough to take on Lindsey Graham. It's beyond time to boot these super-conservatives from their perches and give us some fresh blood in the Senate.

I'm spreading my donation funds this season b/c we have a real troupe of talent in the Dem ranks and they need our $$$ to put them in place for our greater good.
