When Lindsey Graham began running for president last year, some analysts thought he was looking to knock out Rand Paul over foreign policy differences.
Now, as an ex-candidate, Graham seems to be taking aim at Ted Cruz.
"I have no doubt that he would be an ideologue in the eyes of most Americans," Graham said of Cruz during an interview Fox News Radio's Kilmeade & Friends. "He's been the most disruptive influence in the senate, he hasn't passed anything meaningful."

Graham couldn’t help GOPe by syphoning votes in SC, so he’s on to Plan B. He’s a sad little man.
[[Graham: Cruz threw GOP ‘under the bus’ with shutdown]]
The GOP threw American’s under the bus when they went along with Obama’s agenda . He really is entirely clueless how much the average American is fed up with him and the rest of the clowns in congress.
He may still flip.
Crusz is the only one with nads.
Graham conveniently forgets that Cruz’s “stunt” may have been one of the most important factors in the GOP electing a majority in 2014 (not that it matters much during omnibus bills, apparently).
Front or back?
And the GOP came out from under that bus to win the most power the party has had, nationally and at the State level, since 1928, almost entirely on promises and the expectation that the fight against Obama and the Democrats would follow Cruz’s example. Linda, you’re a fag.
Lindsey, Lindsey, Lindsey ... you ignorant sl*t. If Cruz threw the gOpee ‘under the bus’, why did the party have such an historical victory following that at the 2014 polls?! Hmmm?
Wasn’t some sort of protest allowed at the WW2 memorial but shut out veterans from entering?
So taking over the Senate and increasing the House majority was a bad thing? Only to the GOPe, Linda.
Soon this attack will be echoed by trump the clinton donor
Rand Paul On Shutdown: "Even Though It Appeared I Was Participating In It, It Was A Dumb Idea"I said throughout the whole battle that shutting down the government was a dumb idea. Even though it did appear as if I was participating in it, I said it was a dumb idea. And the reason I voted for it, though, is that it's a conundrum. Here's the conundrum. We have a $17 trillion debt and people at home tell me you can't give the president a blank check. We just can't keep raising the debt ceiling without conditions. So unconditionally raising the debt ceiling, nobody at home wants me to vote for that and I can't vote for that. But the conundrum is if I don't we do approach these deadlines. So there is an impasse. In 2011, though, we had this impasse and the president did negotiate. We got the sequester. If we were to extend the sequester from discretionary spending to all the entitlements we would actually fix our problem within a few years.[Posted on 11/19/2013 12:16:51 PM by Third Person]
GOOD! Because those F***ers need to be thrown under the bus, and the bus needs to drive back and forth over them as necessary to eradicate them as a problem.
Republicans should have ATTACKED the media with every means at their disposal instead of letting the media turn the shut down against them.
They have made Left wing Liberal Democrats from New York into their masters instead of slapping the arrogant little bitches down as they need to be slapped down!
Republicans learned the WRONG lesson from the shutdown. They should have learned who their enemy was and that they need to be fought in every manner possible. Instead they learned how to beg the media not to hurt them and how to whimper that "they won't ever do such a thing again."
Someone punch that aging faggot Lindsey in the mouth. It's way past time he got his face pasted for opening up his yap.
It failed because the GOP has no balls. They are clearly maneuvering to get rid of Cruz as they have never liked him. He has nothing in his past to be blackmailed, so he is unfit for command. We will get Rubio v Biden, mark my words. Trump will dump out when the “chosen two” are set for an unspecified illness, or just because.
Funny how the shutdown was such a disaster for the GOP that they had one of the biggest elections in their history the next year... I guess they can blame all those seats they gained on Ted Cruz as well...
Too late, it already has been.
The Republicans should have followed up the shutdown, with layoff notices for “non-essential” personnel. Seriously, the number of Federal employees could be cut by half and no one would notice but those looking for real work.
He doesn't have the guts for that, either.
“Somebody give Linda a wedgie. Please.”
Haha. I’d pay to see that.
Um . . . no - the GOP through Cruz under the bus by not backing him.
