Sen. Lindsey Graham will endorse former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush for president, according to two sources familiar with the plans, and the two are slated to appear together in North Charleston Friday morning for the announcement. The GOP field had been scrambling to secure the support of Graham and his backers since the hawkish South Carolina senator, an influential foreign policy voice, dropped out of the race last month.

Kiss of death.

[laconic]

Who will Mrs. Graham endorse?

[Pollster1]

That should move Jeb’s support from 3% to 2%.

[Gaffer]

Like this wasn’t the plan all along. Expect all the other 1% candidates to do the same when they bow out.

Woo-hoo!

That’s 3 more votes for Yeb!

Chippin away....chippin away...got to make the donors proud....

[Cowgirl of Justice]

Sewage finds its own level.

[MNGal]

Wow! Way to pick a winner, Lindsey.

[BBB333]

‘She’ just did...

[Gaffer]

Mrs. Graham? You mean his mother? That he lives with? Her? Bachelor pad in her basement Mrs. Graham?

BWAAAAAAHAAAAAHAAAAA

I bet $10 that if the GOP nominee is Trump or Cruz, that Lindsey Graham would pull the lever for Clinton.

[alancarp]

Yeah, he probably got out of the race when he learned that his own family was going to vote for Jeb anyway.

[tennmountainman]

It was the plan all along.

Until Trump threw a monkey wrench in it.

[palmer]

Amazing, Jeb beat out Hillary.

[b4its2late]

Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha! (Taking a breath.) Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha!

[bert]

beat me to it

5% + 0% - 2% = 3%

the 2% takeaway if the JEB voters that desert him because of the endorsement

[shankbear]

When will Linda’s man crush, John McCain, join hands with him on this pick?

[hey Bean]

[Durbin]

Well there’s a shocker!!!!!

[Awgie]

Incredible arrogance by the Establishment. Bush was their guy, but has failed to gain any traction, instead slipping farther and farther into obscurity, slowed only by millions of dollars from would be puppet masters.

Yet Lindsey defiantly lines up with the loser Bush. Why? Because it is all about him (Lindsey). He and those like him would have quickly lead us to defeat at the polls, as a trade off for maintaining their vision of the GOP brand.

Linda Graham endorses: That means the race is over.
