Graham has at least one powerful supporter on deck: his good friend, Sen. John McCain.
McCain not yet ready to support a GOP nominee like Jeb Bush. Notes Sen Lindsey @GrahamBlog could run, and how much fun they'd have on trail

McCain still pushing for his pal Lindsey Graham for 2016: "if he decides to run he's my closest friend."
