The South Carolina Republican sharply criticized President Barack Obama's negotiating skills in talks to contain Iran's nuclear program. The only candidate he mentioned by name as being able to do better was the Democrats' presidential favorite.

"Keep the interim deal in place. Allow a new president in 2017, Democrat or Republican, to take a crack," Graham told CBS' "Face the Nation" program. "The best deal comes with a new president. Hillary Clinton would do better. I think everybody on our side except maybe Rand Paul could do better."

Many Republicans have criticized the Obama administration’s negotiations with Iran as not tough enough and greeted the framework agreement reached last week in Lausanne, Switzerland, with skepticism.

Clinton, Graham's former colleague in the U.S. Senate and Obama's first secretary of state, called the framework agreement an important step toward preventing Iran from getting a nuclear weapon....

ZING!!!

GOP needs to continue that mantra,,,will help drive wedges between the O-bots and Hill-bots,,,let them bloody each other up now....will be good theater. Let them scramble and draw lines against people in their own camp.

May be the closest thing to a primary the Dems have.

Lindsey is as delusional as the Hildebeast herself - Iran isn’t about to honor any “deal” with the great satan, and any politician who believes otherwise is either an idiot or a traitor.

“we don’t really have an agreement anyways, do we?”

“We” agreed to cut out the sanctions. They won this.

I think anyone could have gotten a better deal. President Romney could have! President Clinton would have—maybe even President Gore!

Lindsey is so stupid, you could hand him a gun, tell him the barrel is the sighting mechanism, have him point it at himself, and tell him to pull the trigger, and he would. All you’d have to do is say his partner John McCain said to.
