Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) says the Republican Party may be forced to support presidential hopeful Ted Cruz in order to stop front-runner Donald Trump.
"You know Ted Cruz is not my favorite, by any means,” Graham, who dropped his own bid for the White House in December, said in an interview with CBS. “But we may be in a position where we have to rally around Ted Cruz as the only way to stop Donald Trump, and I'm not so sure that would work.” His comments came with Super Tuesday results indicating Trump would win as many as eight states. They also came a week after Graham joked, “If you killed Ted Cruz on the floor of the Senate, and the trial was in the Senate, nobody could convict you.”
Graham has been a tough critic of both Trump or Cruz. He once said that choosing between the two would be "like being shot or poisoned. I think you get the same result, whether it's quick or it takes a long time."

Graham is a sitting U. S. Senator and colleague of Ted Cruz.
Cruz already sold out his generation with his H-1B visa increase in the Gang of 8 amendment, along with Rubio and his ISQUARED. They are both establishment playthings due to their raw ambition.
I trust Jan Brewer and Sessions more.
It’s funny that you and Cruz keep parroting the liberal media lies. Duke didn’t even endorse Trump . It’s all media lies . that Cruz uses this lie is just more proof Cruz is a snake and liar. Why not talk about the issues instead of libel and slander and liberal tactics of using the race card?
Linda and McCainiac should be in jail for violating the Patriot Act...supplying material support for Al Quadea in Iraq and Syria.
If they were conservatives...they'd be in jail already.
But they are not...so they are free to spew their statements of stupidity and the liberal media laps it up.
Trump/Cruz....can't lose.
Seriously, nobody is listening to Linda.
..the political /media establishment despises Cruz as much as it does DT—so this is a lie IMO...
Trump had better win. Now he has some fairly passive aggressive and aggressive aggressive political enemies.
Regardless of his struggle to finally achieve his dream of sticking his head up his own a$$, he needs to take it out face reality.
What type of kool-aid do they have on that Trumpation. I like grape!.
Oh by the way the stuff the right wing media been selling has really been working. So should I vote for Medved's Rubio or Levin's Cruz? - they can't both be right.
Don't miss you chance to vote for America
That is only because he didn't have Glenn Beck's support at the time.
This makes no sense,,, sound’s like reverse psychology.
After his recent statement regarding shooting Ted Cruz on the Senate floor didn’t get him a censure; this statement is worth less than nothing. It’s amusing as well as eye-opening to the nth degree to see how frantic and vile the GOPe have become. They’re lousy riders, too, trying to hop on one horse after another only to end up in the dirt.
Agree with one exception... Jeb would have been the nominee.
According to Cruz last night, everything was Trump’s fault. So, I will gladly hang one this on him.
They are so smart aren’t they?
Truth hurts huh? Maybe Graham can help find him new donor pipelines. I heard that Citi bank is looking for a new puppet. Their old one got his strings clipped last night and isn’t doing too well.
That’s all you need to know about the “only ‘principled conservative’” in the race. #teddythefraud
That’s because they are following the orders of their talk radio masters.
He sure will. Did you hear him lying his butt off last night?
