WASHINGTON, Aug. 3 (UPI) -- Sen. Lindsey Graham, R-S.C., said Sunday Barack Obama "absolutely" is playing the race card but former Senate Majority Leader Tom Daschle disputed that.
In an appearance on "Fox News Sunday," Graham said the Illinois senator and likely Democratic presidential nominee made race an issue last week when he claimed the campaign of Republican presidential candidate John McCain would try to "scare" American voters because he has "a funny name" and "doesn't look like all those other presidents on those dollar bills."
