1. .....

Disappointing that such a legitimate candidate was doing so poorly. He'll have a long political life.

[Josh]

2. That's upsetting -

he was the candidate I felt most in-sync with on many issues (not that I live in the US or am a citizen, but I have influence over my American friends and have often convinced them who to vote for). His is a sad voice to lose in this race. I do hope he returns to run for the Senate, however, as there is plenty of time for him to do so.

[jiacinto]

3. Yes

I hope he runs for re-election.

[diplomats]

4. Me, too

[wildwww2]

12. I think he will. I am going to e-mail him and ask him to anyway.

He has to know how badly the state and his country need him in the senate. But I will remind him anyway.
Peace
Wildman
Al Gore is My President

[Terwilliger]

5. Said he made no plans for the future

would probably run again for Florida senate, could be the veep if someone asked

[diplomats]

9. I hope he decides to run again

If he's the veep, would that help us in Florida? (Of course, with Jeb there, that's probably a moot question.)

[RandomUser]

21. If he gets picked vp

he will definitely bring us Florida. But age is a consideration in VPs, sometimes, because you want them to be young enough and energetic enough to run for Pres in 8yrs.

[wyldwolf]

6. If he retired to private life...

...would he be able to reveal what was in those 28 missing pages of the 9/11 report?

[pruner]

8. that's doubtful…

seeing how it's classified top secret.

[wyldwolf]

15. wishful thinking, huh?

..he could, you know, whisper it to someone... or mumble it to himself while someone was in earshot.

[Minstrel Boy]

20. If he whispered the contents to Novak,

whaddya bet Novak would keep it secret?

[jenk]

7. somebody make a new poll with no Graham

.

[kixot]

10. Why?

He only gets one or two votes anyway. He's had very little support here from what I've been able to tell.

[Zynx]

11. I wish him the best

He's a good man and a great public servant.

[quaker bill]

13. Hope he runs for re-election

WE need him in the Senate. He is also the best bet to keep the seat in the d column.

He would make a pretty good VP choice as well.

[UTUSN]

14. No No I Love Him No Please n/t

[Blue-Jay]

16. He's my #1 choice for VP.

We need Florida, and he could help us win it. I hope the nominee brings him on board.

[w4rma]

17. Graham is one of my most *favorite* Senators

That he is the first to drop out is a testament to how awesome this field of Democratic contenders is. Nonetheless, his presidential campaign was extremely sucessfull. He used his campaign *very* effectively to bring out the security problems that this misadministration has created for America.

I sincerly hope he stays in the United States Senate and uses his Senate seat as a bully pulpit for more important issues. Hang in there, Sen. Graham! This country still needs you! :hi:

[RandomUser]

18. I hope he stays in public life too

He adds a much needed voice in the Senate.

[caledesi]

19. He could be VP if Dean gets the nomination. Dean has always

been super-nice to Graham.

I like Bob Graham. He is a stand-up man. Just didn't have the "IT" factor.

[dofus]

23. Howard Dean said that the candidate

he personally supported was Graham. This was said back in May. I saw him at a fundraiser here, and someone asked the question of who, besides himself, he supported. The answer was Graham.

[Bushknew]

22. National security was HIS issue, too bad he didnÕt talk about it more.

too bad he wasnÕt more aggressive.
