South Carolina Sen. Lindsey Graham (R) says he could be a presidential candidate in 2016.
The outspoken two-term Senator, known as a foreign policy hawk, told the Weekly Standard that if the hawks aren't well-represented when the 2016 fields begin to solidify, he might throw his hat into the ring. ...
When the Weekly Standard's Stephen F. Hayes asked Graham if he'd back a run by Sen. Marco Rubio, he took a shot at the Florida Republican whom he worked with on the Senate immigration bill.
"He's a good guy, but after doing immigration with him - we don't need another young guy not quite ready," Graham said of Rubio. "He's no Obama by any means, but he's so afraid of the right, and I've let that go."
McCain said in the piece that he encouraged Graham to give a presidential run a "look," while also lauding potential candidates like Rubio, former Gov. Jeb Bush (Fla.), Gov. Chris Christie (N.J.) and Sen. Ted Cruz (Texas).

How out of touch is this guy?
He is floating? Well, he is a little bit light in his loafers.
AW H*LL NAW!
Bush. Graham. Romney.
I’m not liking any of the so-called GOP hopefuls at this point. Hopefully one worth voting for will declare intentions.
YES YES YES!
If Gayham runs, it’ll make his next reelection to the senate much more difficult.
NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO
Which party?
He should run and if he wins....history will be made....
12 years of having a gay president...
Sure, why not?
He is not much worse than the other DIABLOs that are thinking about running.
Where is the barf alert?
He wont run, he would have to uncouple himself from McCain first and he rather not do that.
Goober Lindsey for FLOATUS. Hope floats but so does turds in the bowl.
The first confirmed bachelor President since James Buchanan?
Oh that would work out just as well the second time...
What say you?
He must be having delusions of grandeur.
Wonder if Fauxahontas is willing to take a DNA test to prover her 'Indian ancestry'.
There's a show on cable with a black host ( cant remember the name)he runs DNA tests on famous people to help with ancestral trees. He discovered Rebecca Lobo (BB player) had a Jewish ancestor in her maternal line -- she had absolutely no idea.
Soon, the list of Republicans pols not considering a run will be shorter than the list considering a run.
Well, President Gingrich said the SC primary really does mean a lot.
HA HA HA HA HA HA HA! I think it’s great that all the RINOs want to run. Chris Christie, Mittens Romney, JEB!, Goober Grahamnesty, Gomer Huckabee, should all run and stay in as long as they can.
You’ll know that Goober is serious about this when someone finally shows up willing to marry him.
Hell NO
