Some people in Kentucky have “figured it out”. I’m one of them. It’s real simple. Rand Paul supports Mitch McConnell because he thinks Mitch McConnell will be re-elected and will, therefore, be in a good position to help him, Rand Paul, achieve his presidential ambitions. Paul obviously places his personal welfare before what’s best for the citizens of Kentucky. It’s no more complicated that that.
If that is the reason to support McConnell, it is a good one.
We do not want to lose Kentucky like we blew sure wins in Indiana with Mourdock, Missouri with Todd Akin, Delaware with O’Donnell, Nevada with Sharon Angle.
Winner of election takes it all!
Losers have zero power to change anything.
I don’t think you’re wrong in why Rand is supporting McConnell. I’m just not convinced that McConnell will really win.
