[Cincinatus' Wife]

Every U.S. Senator looks into the mirror and sees a POTUS. And campaign consultants get rich taking it to the bank.

However.

I wonder who's backing a Graham campaign?

Last night on Fox News it was reported that Graham said if he doesn't do well in the early primaries, that he will bow out of the SC race and throw his support behind another candidate.

Gosh - who could that be?

Bush?

Ya think?

"I wonder who's backing a Graham campaign? "

Democrats, so he can usurp the conservative candidates.

[the_Watchman]

I thought he had already spoiled South Carolina!

[RginTN]

he could unintentionally disrupt former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush’s performance

---

is this a bad thing? The RINOs vote split gives the Conservative the edge...yes???

[upchuck]

"I think it's hard to say right now, but he's probably pulling from Jeb Bush the most," Woodard said. "If he were to drop out today, I think most of the voters go to Jeb Bush."

Precisely! In the meantime, linda gets to build up her war chest.

Want on or off this ping list?

[lee martell]

I think it’s ex Mayor,Busybody Extraordinaire Bloomberg.
I think he misses being king of the hill and the one everybody is talking about.

[Gaffer]

He’s there to drain support from Walker/Cruz. At the point where he’s done his job, he’ll bow out and urge support for Jeb Bush. He’s doing this for a slot on the short list for VP.

[rodguy911]

All you Trey Gowdy supporters note that Gowdy is a big Graham supporter.Gowdy is weak on immigration as well.Just sayin’ there are no 100% pols anywhere.

[Dr. Sivana]

Somebody, a candidate with no chance to win, but a pile of money, or even a well-funded PAC has to go on the attack on Graham in South Carolina ONLY. The reason? Do everything possible to run Graham’s numbers down far enough in his home state that he has to worry about getting re-elected to the Senate. My fear is that those who are superficial news readers/watchers will latch onto Graham as “Not Jeb” for SC.
