Thread: Lindsey Graham left out in the cold in GOP debate

    Lindsey Graham left out in the cold in GOP debate

    Republican Sen. Lindsey Graham is one of the most quoted and influential politicians in Washington, D.C. from either party – a fixture on Sunday shows who’s known for crossing the aisle to enact major bipartisan deals while advocating for a hawkish foreign policy.

    He’s also running for president. But that part hasn’t gone so well, and now Graham finds himself out in the cold for the Fox Business Network/Wall Street Journal debate on Tuesday after missing its minimum polling requirements.




    Like the previous gatherings, the event features a main debate and a “kids table” debate for low polling candidates. Candidates needed to average 2.5% in public polls to make the big show and 1% to make the next tier. The big news coming out of the event was that New York Gov. Chris Christie and former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee were both dropped to the lower tier, but the second debate’s exclusions were jarring as well. Graham isn’t the only candidate with a strong resume on paper who missed the cut – former New York Gov. George Pataki and former Virginia Gov. Jim Gilmore (who missed the last one) are out as well.

    Ehh. I watched Graham at the last debate and he seemed like a nice guy, just has some twisted views on foreign policy I think he truly believes in.

    Sad that Pataki isn't doing better. If Rand wasn't running I'd vote for him. He was one of the best Governors we've had in NY in the last 100 years. And he comes off as highly intelligent, even in his old age.

    Instead we have clowns like Dr "the pyramids were built for grain" Carson and Donald "You're only voting for me because I was a reality TV star" Trump high in the polls.

    And we wonder why liberals are always mocking republicans as stupid backwards hillbillys...

    Fox shafted Graham and Pataki by using the NBC poll.

    If you really think about it, Lindsey (who ran just to spite Rand) and Christie who is Rand's surveillance arch nemesis have both been polled out of their own respective debates.

    If thats not a decent victory, I don't know what is!

    yeah i agree. i find it hilarious that graham hasnt been able to debate rand yet. graham said his main reason for running was to debate rand on foreign policy and thats never going to happen lol.

    also glad blowhard christie is finally off the stage. he just annoys me. there was a time he was a rockstar but then he got too full of himself
