Lindsey Graham is telling donors that June 1 is the likely date for his presidential announcement, according to several sources familiar with the conversations.

They’re all terrified of Ted. They’re throwing everything against the wall to see if something sticks.

A “compelling personal story” - big deal. He’s still RINO scum.

Who asked for him to run?

I mean, by all means, he can waste as much of his money as he wants.

Yawn!

Actually, I thought he already announced. Goes to show how little I care.

Who is he paying to tell him there is an ounce of rationality in a run by him?

“He’d” be well-advised to book “his” exit on June 2.

You nailed it! Huckafeller, Jebbie, & now Lindarella.

(I admire both Dr. Carson & Carly Fiorena but they’re excellent Cabinet prospects & nothing more.)

It’s like the GOPe is creating its own intramural Third Party slate of candidates to derail the conservative frontrunner.

FWIW I think Ted Cruz (yay!!!) is purposely scheduling more speaking appearances in South Carolina (my state) just to ruffle Flimsey Tinkerbelle’s ostrich feathers.

CRUZ or lose!
