Why not?  He has a massive campaign chest and once he's past the primary he's won barring a tea partier running as an independent and splitting the vote so the Democrat can win.  But I don't see anyone out there who could hope to run as an independent and crack even 5%, let alone the 10 to 20% that would be needed to hand the election to the Democrat.

I take it South Carolina doesn't do runoff elections for general races?

If Republicans really don't like Graham, then rallying behind his opponent shouldn't be a problem.  However, the anti-Graham sentiment just isn't strong enough to oust him.

If by some crazy chance it is, I wouldn't be surprised if Graham decided to start a write-in campaign.  He wouldn't be the first SC politician to win that way, after all...

Thanks for the list, Ernest.  I should probably add that to the OP...

Apparently Ravenel is running as an Independent if Graham wins the primary and plans to spend all his money on anti-Graham attack ads.
