Honestly, he's right

Lindsey Graham, R-SC says that the GOP Nomination is Romney's 'to lose'.

I have to think he's buttering up to Romney, maybe hoping for a chance at being the Vice President candidate. I don't see that happening for Graham, though.

1) There's the ongoing, persistent rumours that Graham is gay. Yes, he's denied it, but the rumours are still there. Given how right-wing the Republican party is getting, they're not going to even consider Graham as a VP choice.

2) South Carolina is a red state. It's not going to Obama in the 2012 Presidential election, regardless of who the Republicans have on their ticket, so having Graham as the VP choice brings nothing to the table.
