Imagine the words as he's saying them

Since I live in Birmingham, I'm clearly not one of Sen. Graham's constituents. But do yourself a favor: listen both to the content of his response and his word choice. This outstanding bit of Q&A shows how the senator from South Carolina notes the coarsening of political discussion via mass media while also taking a longer view of the next several years. He's able to view this time in our history with the cool detachment of a historian.
