Graham, a prominent Senate critic of President Barack Obama's
foreign policy, was among a group of potential and actual
Republican candidates who gathered this weekend in New
Hampshire, which holds next year's first presidential primary.
Reminded during a "Fox News Sunday" interview that fellow
Republican Carly Fiorina had said recently there was a 90
percent she would become a candidate, Graham was asked what
percent chance there was he would run.
"Ninety-one," he replied.
"I've got to put the means together," Graham said. "I think I've
got a good message. I think I've done more right than wrong on
foreign policy. I've criticized the president for being weak and
indecisive. I've been a problem solver in Washington and I think
I've got something to offer the party and nation."
Adding: "I'll make that decision in May," Graham said: "If I can
raise the money, I'll do it."
