One "Amigo" is in the Bush camp -- and another is being courted.
Sen. Lindsey Graham endorsed Jeb Bush this past week, calling him best-prepared among the Republican candidates to be commander in chief.
Graham's own presidential campaign didn't get very far, but Bush is hoping his endorsement helps in the senator's home state of South Carolina. And now, the former Florida governor is trying to enlist Graham's help in winning another high profile endorsement: that of Arizona Republican Sen. John McCain.
McCain, of course, was the 2008 Republican presidential nominee, and traveled often with Graham and then-Sen. Joseph Lieberman of Connecticut. "Three Amigos" was their self-styled nickname.

Good. Perfect.
It would serve his lame ass right if McCain endorsed him.

Loser endorsing loser. Wow, a big win for Bush. Looking forward to McLame losing his primary.

How does Bush think McLame will help him? Voters are very resentful at how McLame has double crossed them. A backstabber endorsement is what a fool would want.

Agreed. McCain was a squish, and several million stayed home rather than vote for a left-wing moderate.
It doesn’t help Bush to get McCain’s endorsement.

He’d be better off trying to get the endorsement of Yertle the Turtle.
I don’t think that endorsements really carry much weight these days.

This endorsement will surely provide the surge that shall carry Jeb WAY past The Donald and restore all the family honor.
NOT.

The RNC is determined to crown Bush. I will never vote for him.

Please Jeb, don't get the endorsement of another loser, it makes you look even worse. Just quietly drop out.
