The conservative Club for Growth may target South Carolina Sen. Lindsey Graham’s seat in 2014 by supporting a more conservative primary challenger, the group’s president said Thursday morning at a Christian Science Monitor breakfast. Chris Chocola, the group’s president, pointed to Graham for not being sufficiently pro-free market.
“If you’re looking to the horizon of 2014,” Chocola said, “the sun may rise over South Carolina.” He said that Graham “has not fared well on our score card.”
Club for Growth has helped unseat other moderate Republicans such as Sen. Dick Lugar in Indiana and Sen. Bob Bennett in Utah.
