Three More Names

Lindsey Graham. Carly Fiorina. George Pataki. Could any of these three Republicans possibly be the next President of the United States? Probably not, but still. They've all been mentioned, in one way or another, as possibly getting ready to throw their hats into the ring for 2016. (The Federalist had some fun with its article about why Graham, the senior senator from South Carolina, won't actually get to be president, saying that Heather Graham, Franklin Graham, even Alexander Graham Bell are better choices. Read it here.)

In the interest of complete accuracy I'm adding these names to my on-going list of potential nominees.
