Go away, Lindsay…

Via The Hill:

Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) on Thursday said he would vote for a qualified Supreme Court nominee sent for confirmation to the Senate by Hillary Clinton.

“Let’s just assume she is president,” Graham said at a Judiciary Committee meeting.

“I’ve been telling everybody on my side, she’s going to pick somebody probably more liberal than President Obama’s going to send over in a few days and I’m going to vote for that person if I think they’re qualified.”
Graham said he believes the president, regardless of party, “deserves the right to pick judges of their philosophy and that goes with winning the White House.”

At the same time, Graham said he feels comfortable with the GOP’s decision not to hold a hearing or vote on a nominee from President Obama.
