The debate over how to respond to the crisis in Ukraine has highlighted a split between the two senators who are largely in step on domestic policy. In interviews last week, Paul said he is wary of giving money to Ukraine due to its history of corruption while Cruz said he will wait to see what comes out of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee.

How is that a "split"? There is nothing contradictory there. Sounds like politico is desperate to gin up a fight between Cruz and Rand Paul.

I think the “split” is that Paul indirectly criticized Cruz’ comments about Reagan and, perhaps more importantly, he slammed Cruz for trashing Dole, McCain and Romney.

Paul is sucking up to the GOPe, and he thinks he can away with it. He might. He is making serious and (I think) courageous outreach to non-traditional supporters

I prefer Cruz over Paul for many reasons. It will be interesting to see how their new rivalry plays out

You are CORRECT!

Also, the headline is bogus

“Rand Paul slams Ted Cruz”. He doesn’t even mention Ted Cruz. What Paul was quoted as saying in the article, I agree with 100%.

Exactly, and watch all the people start throwing chairs at each other. The commies at Politico are laughing their butts off. Stupid fights are breaking out all over tonight. Sometimes FR looks like a kindergarten room.
