WASHINGTON — If Andrew Jackson created the notion of a president’s “Kitchen Cabinet,” Sen. John McCain is reinventing it months before his possible election to the White House.
And Sen. Lindsey Graham seems to be McCain’s one-man Kitchen Cabinet.
Graham’s visibility as the Arizona senator’s closest political confidant has risen in recent weeks as the two men crisscross the country and travel abroad on McCain’s presidential quest.

Well, now we know where Graham’s been hanging out.
Ick. Just—ick.
Another toe-tappin' RINO.
Lindsey Graham: What a total waste of a good senate seat from a conservative state! Let him move to Mexico with Juan Hernandez. South Carolina deserves two senators like Jim DeMint.
“Graham’s visibility as the Arizona senator’s closest political confidant has risen in recent weeks as the two men crisscross the country and travel abroad on McCain’s presidential quest.”
Please Juanito, I beg of you, pick this light-loafers pansy as VP. I just want to watch all the color drain from the virtual faces of your operatives on the internet....oh the deliciousness!
one-man”
Very generous use of the term “man”
This is precisely the problem that scares the bajeebers out of me when it comes to McCain as president. Nitwts like Graham can't wait to carry his water, even if they stand to loose a little of their own, they are so excited.
If this is the norm rather than the exception, heaven help us. And I hope it is warming up the cherubs in advance.
Lady Thatcher used to say, many times, that if you stand in the middle of the street, you can be hit by traffic going in both directions.
She never thought of consensus as way to govern.
Mr. Graham used to be a tiger when he was a House member, but ever since he gained a Senate seat, he’s turned into a squish. Something must have happened. Can he really enjoy being invited to all of those cocktail parties in DC? I’ve been to many of them, and they are way over rated.
I prefer GRAMM!
Round here we call him “Little Lindsey Grahamnesty McCain”
I may be wrong, but I think you’ll get your shot to see those faces as they realize the reality of John’s pick.
It ain’t going to be pretty. You’ll have to pitty them in a way, all that hope and so little realization.
Graham? Perhaps. Either way he’ll find someone who will be a good little leftist and sit quietly in the corner, when he isn’t out beating the bushes for votes for John’s breathtakingly lefitst agenda.
If former Senator Phil Graham is a part of a McCain Administration, he will be the economic downfall of this nation and will singlehandedly drive this nation into a severe depression, if not the world.
“Bipartisan relationships” is RINO-speak for “assume a wide stance for the Democrats”. Lindsay has spent more than enough time in that stall already.
I sure hope McCain isn’t thinking of nominating Lindsey for VP. Lindsey owes patriotic Americans an apology. He managed to go from a conservative hero in Clinton’s impeachment trial to a man calling those who opposed amnesty bigots. Such a horrid little man he became.
Why the white house and so many Republicans thought such a stupid political battle was necessary when they could’ve just taken a two tier approach built a wall, fortified security and then pushed reasonable ideas for streamlining citizenship as well as offering more restrictions on immigration by individuals who hold views hostile to the US and its traditions. Instead they chose the foolish road of demonizing those whose support they needed to accomplish anything. They attempted the exact same approach that failed for Hillary Clinton which just goes to show that politicians never learn.
” “If he gets to be president, I can be of great benefit to him in the Senate,” Graham said. “With his agenda, he’s going to need people to form bipartisan relationships and pass major legislation.”
Ugh...
John’s not going to have an agenda, b/c Obama is going to win.
There. I said it. Sadly, it is also true.
Former Senator Phil Gramm.
“At one time I had high hopes for Lindsey. “
What a difference 10 years makes, eh?
Can’t stand him either....it was Graham and Teddy Kennedy who tried to sneak the Amnesty bill through the Senate last summer....but for the heads-up given on Talk Radio, they’d have probably made it.
By the way....McCain still says he’s for amnesty “yesterday, today, and tomorrow”. And he’s the “conservative” candidate.
Vote Consitution Party.
I’m not here to argue the point. You may be right. I had thought enough Democrats would cross over to more than make up for the folks like myself that won’t be voting for him. There are several variables in this election that make it a real tough one to call IMO.
Lindsay Graham soars because he is light in the loafers.

How MANY reasons are you going to give me NOT to vote for you?!?!?!?!?!?!?
That little punk? McCain is even dumber that I thought.
Please ....... no .......... it’s tough enough to sell McCain as it is without “open-borders” Lindsey ... in addition to “open-borders” Juan ...
what insanity
[What a wanker he turned out to be.]
Wanker yanker may be a better description!
Yep. Lindsey looked pretty good on the Clinton impeachment. Even Keith Olberman was singing a quite critical tune back then. They and others looked pretty good in those days. And then the big issue died, and the real lack of character shown through.
Too true AuntB. Ten years, and now look what we’ve put in the breach to fire off in November. The first boomerang projectile...
Eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee...
Sorry all but when November comes I’m seriously looking at voting for the Democrat when I see Graham’s name on the ballot. Tried to take him out in the primaries but it didn’t happen. I hate having to pretend it’s a Republican seat. We still have some conservative Dems in this state and I think one is running against Grahamnesty.
McCain's campaign...a circus...LOLOLOL.
'Republican by day...Democrat by night' It's been noted those are his own words. 
Has our nation come to this abysmal mess? I am utterly disgusted with politics these days.
Graham is a piece of ****
And those asterisks don’t stand for ‘work’
>:(
That will fix everything. First of all, they'll never win ANYTHING. They don't even want to win. They'd rather hide behind their empty rhetoric and stand back and receive campaign contributions from gullible schmucks, like I was at one time.
This way they can pretend to be more pious and never have to prove it. They'll never have to govern and open themselves up to scrutiny.
These crooks take the hopes and dreams of those who actually believe that those in the CP will improve this nation.
During the 2000 and 2004 elections they had the audacity to run radio ads against Bush--not Gore or Kerry. My eyes were opened then. There is no way they convinced me that Bush was more dangerous than Gore or Kerry.
It is the CP that is dangerous.
ahem
They’re smarter over there then most Republicans here. I would have voted for Charles Manson over Graham. Sorry I voted for him the first time.
McCain’s cabana boy
This would be a vote to keep Democrats in control in the Senate. Never, never, never!!!
Go ahead and vote for Captain Amnesty and his future three semi-liberal appointees to the Court....
....I choose to vote Consitution Party, it’s the only way I can tell the Republican Party that Jeffords-Snow-Graham candidates like McCain are not acceptable.
Bring on Obama....in four years you are going to see the biggest conservative backlash ever!
Now there’s a stupid idea. Get out your tinfoil hats for that group of anti Republican Kooks. Democrats keep putting money into that group down here to split the vote.
What’s studpid is voting for a Republican nominee for POTUS who nearly ran with John Kerry in ‘04. McCain almost left the Party in ‘01 in the Senate, but Jeffords beat him to it.
You have been duped. There’s no conservative running this year except Chuck Baldwin and depending on how you see him, Bob Barr.
Get real!
I would vote for Manson over McCain. Any chance we could draft Manson? Is his parole up for consideration?
So we’re just supposed to pretend they don’t by keeping several RINOs around.
“I think you’ll get your shot to see those faces as they realize the reality of John’s pick.”
The “I told you so’s” and pointing and laughing will be well worth the crap that those McBots have slung for lo these many months.
And you can bet if he is, the Rats are gonna smoke him out.
That said, if McCain picks Graham, then we can be 1,000% certain the "path to citizenship" for illegals will begin as soon as MCain/Graham are elected.
Know what you are voting for, people!! McCain is telling us what he intends to do. God help us.
