Sen. Lindsey Graham launches committee to 'test the waters' on 2016 bid
Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) on Thursday formally unveiled an exploratory committee to "test the waters" on a potential White House campaign.
Called "Security Through Strength," the committee is a riff on Ronald Reagan's "peace through strength" message. Graham, who hinted at a possible 2016 bid earlier this month, said Wednesday on Fox News he would soon establish an exploratory committee to lay the groundwork for a presidential campaign.
