Sen. Lindsey Graham told Alan Colmes Tuesday he will do "weddings, funerals, bar mitzvahs" if that is what it takes to win the GOP nomination in New Hampshire.

"[Sen. John] McCain just endorsed me this past week. He won there twice so I'm doing weddings, funerals, bar mitzvahs," Graham joked.

The U.S. senator from South Carolina said his current campaign goal is to show viability outside of his homestate.

"If I do well in New Hampshire, I will win my home state. I'll be the hometown guy coming back with momentum and be seen as a viable candidate," said Graham, currently ranked 13th on the Washington Examiner's power rankings list.

Graham did not answer Colmes' question about a date he would potentially drop out by, but he did say he was surprised by Louisiana Gov. Bobby Jindal's decision on Tuesday to suspend his campaign.
