What we must take note of: The media, and liberals (synonymous) are so euphoric over what they perceive as a blow to the Tea Party. Liberals so despise the Tea Party (see IRS scandal) these radical leftists are pumping up a Republican.
But remember: Graham ran violently to the right, and extolled his credentials as a Conservative with the $6-to-$8 million in campaign funds he had.
Graham also BASHED President Barack Obama at every turn, making sure that voters knew of how he opposed Obama. Anti-Obama (in effect anti-Media) was THE major theme of Graham's primary campaign.
Face it: Graham won because he had all the money and there was not really a formidable candidate to take him on.
If you go up against a political heavyweight (see incumbent) like Graham, and lose, he will destroy you.
Not to mention, since The State newspaper, and liberals in general, see Graham as their closet hope of winning, the media would obliterate any Graham opponent too.
Of course, as John McCain found out in 2008, the media's support is only good against Conservatives. The media's love of Graham will evaporate as soon as he is pitted against the Democrat.
As it is, it's comical to see the media crowing about Graham's win, only to attack him, as soon as he opposes Obama, as he swore as he campaigned against the dread Tea Party.
