Lindsey Graham is announcing that he's running for President today. Now, I'm sure that some of y'all think he's the bees knees. Others may think he's just McCain's BFF.

Back to his announcement.
Senator Lindsey Graham of South Carolina on Monday plans to return to the neighborhood where he was raised and announce that he is running for president, injecting a hawkish foreign policy voice into a crowded field of Republican contenders.
Mr. Graham is entering the race a year after his political career appeared briefly to be on the ropes, when Tea Party conservatives targeted him as a moderate to be ousted in the midterm election.
After fending off that challenge with ease, Mr. Graham, 59, has said his fear that the world is “falling apart” inspired him to run for the White House.
He will try to convince voters that a platform of pragmatism at home and “security through strength” abroad is the formula that gives Republicans the best chance to beat Hillary Rodham Clinton if she becomes the Democratic nominee.
