"That's the first thing I'm going to do as president: We're going to drink more," he said.
Graham also trashed Democratic presidential front-runner Hillary Clinton in eyebrow-raising terms.
"Where the hell were you" during the Benghazi, Libya, attacks, Graham fumed when he was asked about his past praise for Clinton.

There was a first debate? what were the qualifications, breathing?
i just shut off the Carly Fiorina show, with the rigged audience.
And i NEVER believe audiences are rigged, until tonight.

I dont even know what republicans stand for anymore.
Cruz was brilliant. I wish I could think and respond like him
Suck.com. Good one. CNN slurps their favorite surrender monkey. Nothing they say or write could shine up Graham.
No, Rick Santorum shined, not Graham.
No, Rick Santorum shined, not Graham.
LOL!
And I use some polish to shine my shoes.
That is all Lindsey is good for.
“shines”
Shine is a racist term. It’s even in the ‘Urban Dictionary’.
Girly man proclaims himself Queen For A Day
He called Hillary Clinton a National Treasure...
And, up until a few months ago, it was still online at its old URL.
But it's enshrined at Archive.com for all to see!
"A fish, a barrel, and a smoking gun!"
Jindal won that debate by several miles.
He may have been the sweatiest and there had the shiniest face.
I like Santorum and Jindal. The other two are out of the question for me.
He shines my shoes.
Only because he was already bent over.
I call bullshit.
Jindal won easy attacking GOP Congress as Losers
Kind of like winning the NIT.....who cares?
