MY friend and I have a difference of opinion. [I think this criminal](http://www.wboc.com/Global/story.asp?S=12447135) in the bottom picture looks very much like a young [Senator Lindsey Graham](http://media.independentmail.com/media/img/photos/2009/06/08/0609grahamJUMP3_t607.JPG). He does not see the resemblance. Any resemblance? [Bigger pic of kid](http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_RnRejIPRpAY/S-Q-RDim9yI/AAAAAAAAS7c/csqDVb2W-D8/s1600/J10.bmp) ---

alleged criminal 😉 I can see some resemblance but I wouldn’t class it as “very much”… ---

No, not really. They both have relatively low cheekbones, but Lindsey’s are more prominent. The kid has a more pointed nose, a higher forehead, and a shorter chin, as well. ---

A little. Pretty common features for a Southern anglo, tho’. ---

Don’t see it personally, but then the 30+ year age difference is difficult to work around. [Graham](http://resolutedetermination.files.wordpress.com/2010/01/senatorgrahamstanding.jpg)has always reminded me of [Dave Foley](http://www.jimhillmedia.com/mb/images/upload/dave-foley.jpg) or of[Kenneth](http://smallscreenscoop.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/01/kenneth-the-page.JPG) from 30 Rock (especially the smile).
