Probably not because he can say, "I tried" & blame the 'other'[insert name here with [R]] person for it & that is all that is really needed for him & his base constituents.

Anything & everything is apart of the game in Washington to win,no issue or tactic is exempt from the playbook.I think some should ask themselves why now almost 1 year & 3 months into this Congress ?I also don't accept Heathcare as a feasible excuse.

Maybe I'm looking too much into this as a cynic,but I also get the impression Graham is not being that honest either.He works on "Bi-partisan" proposals & then when the next issue shows up declares everything he has worked with Democrats dead on arrival,I mean come on it is part his compromise as well ! I get the impression Graham & the Republicans cover use this as a guise under "Bi-partisanship" since he is the 'point man' for "negotiations",lol.
