This is not a link to any article but I am getting the impression the Republicans who support wars and increasing the military's budget and the so called hawk mentality are really freaked out over Rand Paul and the only reason Graham is running is to make sure that Paul does not win Republican voters over to his side. Graham, was actually seen as sort of a less vocal hawk a few years ago. His current tough guy persona seems fake - like he was hired to play a part by a lobby group.

It's not just the Republican wing, neocon warhawk Hillary is worried too. They don't really care who wins, as long as it isn't anyone pro-American. Paul it at the top of the D&R party hit list.

Graham is perhaps the most obvious Rand Paul troll. Rick Santorum is running to help further split the vote, for a Marco Rubio nomination, IMO.

Santorum announces candidacy at 4:30

They want to muddy the waters. Get as many leftist Repubs to run as they can, split the support. You know the R party would rather have Hillary than Paul.
