Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC) dodged a question Sunday about whether he would be willing to let taxes go up on all Americans if President Obama is reelected and Congress fails to reach a deal.

“I’m willing to do the Bowles-Simpson plan,” he said on CNN’s “State of the Union.”

He added that it would be “stupid” to let the Bush era high-income tax rates rise to Clinton-era levels.
