Graham: Cruz worse than Obama
CNN Politics ^ | February 5, 2016 | Gregory Krieg

(CNN)--How much does Lindsey Graham dislike Ted Cruz? Count the ways.

On the question of foreign policy, the Texas senator is "just as wrong as Obama, if not worse," Graham told CNN's Wolf Blitzer on Thursday.

"In Ted Cruz's world, dictators do very well," he continued, comparing his colleague's foreign policy to that of Ron Paul, the former congressman, Republican presidential candidate and long-time leading libertarian.

Asked why his fellow senators are reputed to have such a distaste for Cruz, Graham accused the winner of the Iowa GOP caucuses of being an "opportunist" to his core -- one who "gets ahead at our expense" and will "run down other Republicans" to advance his own ambitions.

Not that Graham -- who has endorsed Jeb Bush -- is warming to Donald Trump, whose foreign policy prescriptions he described as "gibberish."(continued)

Linda just wants to get invited to one of those bubble parties with Rubio.

“In Ted Cruz’s world, dictators do very well,”

In Lindsey’s world, Islamists do very well (see Egypt, Libya, and Syria (if he had his way)).

S Carolina conservatives must be so proud to keep sending this schmuck back to Washington.

Graham: Cruz worse than Obama

I don't understand how anyone as stupid as Lindsey Graham can walk around without falling over.

He probably has special permission from his “good friends” Juan McStain and Rancid Prius.

Grahamnesty has certainly been a worthy student of McCainiac—they’ve both mastered the art of getting as much free TV time as they like by attacking conservatives. It’ll be another 4 years before SC voters get another chance to take Grahamnesty out, but let’s hope AZ voters will do their duty this year and throw McCainiac out on his ear.
