Lindsey Graham Endorses Mark Sanford: ‘We Need Him In Washington’

IGOR BOBIC 11:03 AM EDT, WEDNESDAY MAY 1, 2013

Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC) endorsed Mark Sanford in his bid for the state's 1st congressional district on Wednesday, just one week before the former South Carolina governor squares off against Democrat Elizabeth Colbert Busch in a special election.

Graham, who also faces re-election in 2014, characterized his endorsement as an effort to hold the House of Representatives in the Republican column as the "last line of defense against the Democratic agenda."

Lindsey Graham ✔ @LindseyGrahamSC

The Obama Democrats already control the Senate, making the House of Representatives the last line of defense against the Democratic agenda.

Lindsey Graham ✔ @LindseyGrahamSC

Let's not forget that when the Democrats controlled everything, we got #ObamaCare and trillions in new debt. #sc1 @MarkSanford

The self-hating dope needs to take a lesson from Jason Collins and come out already.

More war. More debt. 9/11. Economy in the crapper.

And Cheney: Deficits don't matter, go f*** yourself.
