Maybe its his attack that pulls Hillary down, and maybe it will work on Obama.

If Lindsey Graham were to start a stump speech with McCain/Huckabee then McCain would have a chance. Anybody who embraces Huckabee will have a chance. If they don't, then Huckabee will win it on his own.

McCain ain't beating nobody. He needs to get past the whole Giuliani-Romney-Huckabee fiasco first, and even if he gets through that unscathed (fat chance), he's nothing compared to Barack Obama!

OBAMA 2008 and 2012!

Considering the crop of GOP candidates right now, I think it would be difficult to a) attack Obama without looking evil and b) overcome his image as a reformer and a civil servant. Not to mention that the overall Democratic political machine is as powerful as it's been in decades.

The Hillary Factor and The OO (pronounced ugh)(Oprah & Obama)Factor are not enough to stop Senator John McCain. Those are just political tags, but Senator McCain is the real factor that they need to be watching for. You strip away all the posturing and childish attacks, you still have two sorely lacking individuals. Both are sorely lacking in qualifications and experience which is kind of ironic, because compared to Senator McCain who " I might add" is over-qualified, there really is no comparison. When you take all of their minus factor's and Senator McCain's plus factor's into consideration there is no real "Hillary Factor" or "OO Factor" is there?

Lindsey graham should go back to buying carpets in Iraq. The guy has no credibility since he was seen parading around an Iraqi market wearing a bullet-proof vest, surrounded by armed military guards with helicopters flying above pronouncing how safe it was. That was a joke, he is a joke, and his shopping buddy McCain is a joke.

I don't understand this system we have. The fact that we allow states like South Carolina and Iowa and New Hampshire to determine who is going to become president makes absolutely no sense. I mean, no offense to any of these states or the people that live there, but if the candidates would focus on what's important, rather than just stumping for votes with celebrities in three early-voting states, maybe our nation would elect an effective leader, not just someone who can pander to three otherwise obscure states all the while ignoring the rest of us.

Graham is a straight shooter. This means Obama has a real chance to win.

We DON'T need a candidate who can "beat X" or "beat Y". We need a cnadidate who will provide efective leadership and clean up the mess that George W. Bush and his accomplices have created.

And to my way of thinking, that's sounding more and more like Barak Obama. None of the Republicans will bring us together - they will only split us further apart.

CNN how about putting it this way,

Mccain vs Obama………or Hillary?

McCain missed his chance by aligning himself too closely with Bush Administration policies. Yes that includes immigration.

The only think John did to seperate himself from the pack of Bush-backers was denounce the use of waterboarding and torture.

Otherwise John is a mirror-image of Bush on most other policies. That won't get him very far, especially in a national election vs the Democrats.

An interesting development. Its Obama Vs Huckabee . What an election to see warm ,likable but ideologically opposed guys pitted against each other.

Bob, Seattle:

Get a grip!

Huckabee will fizzle out in a few, just as soon as his record gets out.

Forget it Lindsay, it will be Obama or Hillary as the next president.
Also if you do not get your act together you will not be there to vote against their policies for you will get beat yourself and that would be good.

McCain?????he doesn't have a snowballs chance in Hell of winning the nomination let a lone the general election, unless of course he gets 200 million more of his illegal buddies over here and makes it possible for them to vote.

LINDSEY GRAHAM = HOMOSEXUAL GONE WILD!

Lindsey Graham is the last person any candidate wants giving him or her advice. This man looks, talks, and probably squeels like a homosexual. Just look at him! LOL

And what makes Lindsay Graham think that McCain can draw in independents when McCain's playbook looks so much like Bush's?

I think that McCain is a man of honor and integrity, but his stand on the issues (Iraq, illegal immigration, etc.) is all wrong, and I would NEVER vote for him.

according to the latest polls the dems might have to nominate edwards instead lol

GOP McCain?

probably just name recognition still - don't hold much stock with polls anyhow

Graham and McCain- 2 supporters of illegal immigration.

Sen. Graham is saying this about McCain because he knows, he knows who would be the best president. Just because some people aren't smart enough to listen to him, doesn't mean he isn't right.

No one except Rudy can't beat Obama and Rudy can't take on Hillary, hence Hillary is the best chance the Democrats have.

If the Democrat ticket is Clinton/Obama, then it's possible to experience a landslide win.

McCain Would ruin Hillary in a face off, not so with Obama I believe.
Obama could win against Mccain or any other republican.

I think that is why the republicans attack Hillary, they are trying to rally democratic support behind her so they can have an easy win in '08.

Anyone but Hillary '08
