"Frankly, he isn't ready for the job."
WASHINGTON -- Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) still isn't sure which candidate he'll back in the GOP primary for president, but it won't be Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas).
"Ted's smart, but I think that Hillary Clinton would do a number on him," Graham told Fox News radio host Brian Kilmeade on Friday.
Graham, who dropped his own presidential bid late last month, has said that challenging Cruz -- as well as Sen. Rand Paul (R-Ky.) -- was one of the main reasons he launched his campaign in the first place. He has called Cruz an extremist for being willing to shut down the federal government, and he has criticized Cruz's foreign policy approach.
Last month, Graham said that by opposing U.S. involvement early on in the Syrian crisis, the Texas senator "has done more to allow ISIL to gain a foothold in Syria than any senator other than Rand Paul."
"Frankly, he isn't ready for the job. His foreign policy is very uneven," Graham said of Cruz on Friday.
The South Carolina senator did have praise for some of his other former competitors, including Florida Sen. Marco Rubio (he has a "terrific foreign policy"), Ohio Gov. John Kasich, New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie, former Hewlett-Packard CEO Carly Fiorina and former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush....

I think Ted Cruz will leave Hillary stammering and drooling like a moron.
I doubt it. Willie has to go elsewhere to get someone to “do a number” on him.
A number.....really Lindsey?
nobody cares what you think, Linda.
Lindsey really can’t be this stupid, can she, I mean he?
I do too. Linda Graham and his boy toy, John McCain need to fade into oblivion.....bye Felecia.
Yes, Goober, better to go with the B.I. of Benghazi on this one based on her experience as SOS?
Yeah...but Hillary is.
Please, her shelf life long expired. Obama deposed the Clinton machine, and now she has to be concerned about having to be on trial during the election.
She’s not the invincible juggernaut the media pretends she is.
Glad he's out. He obviously doesn't know what he's doing even now.
Isnt a pic of Linda the illustration for the word irrelevant in the Dictionary?
This guy is really beginning to annoy me.
Linda is always willing to throw other people’s sons and daughters into a foreign meat grinder.
Why, South Carolina? Why??? Why did you put this fool back in office to stir up so much anti-conservative s___t? He needs to leave the national stage. He’ll get a nice gig on MS-LSD replacing Michael Steele as the “Republican” commentator whose job is to slam conservatives. And he’ll make more money doing it on MS-LSD than he does in the Senate to boot.
Don’t do business with SC, they are cleary idiots that vote this idiot into office.
What kind of number? Song and dance? Torch song? Ventriloquism act? The debate should be hosted by Arthur Murray.
I thought about that, too.
Lets see how many here consider Lindsay their new best friend.
Lyndsey must have a lesbian crush on Hellery.
