The senator’s broad appeal threatens to weaken Democrats for 2016, and they are going on offense—sending out no less than 10 press releases on his latest trip to Iowa.

Over the course of the trip, the Democratic National Committee sent out 10 press releases about Paul’s every move and utterance. “What it can tell you as a political observer is that they recognize what we’re trying to point out, which is Rand is the Republican who has the best chance of keeping and energizing the base while going into their constituencies," a senior aide for Paul told The Daily Beast.

I could really not give a care about Rand Paul, he is not someone I look up to.

This is the kind of disinformation they always use and over on this side so many people are fooled by, again and again. If they were truly afraid of Rand Paul it'd be the last thing they'd ever tell you. The Daily Beast is a left-wing site, so if they tell you Rand Paul is the man to beat for the nomination, look elsewhere.

This article is not exhorting you to look up to Rand Paul. This article is all about what democrats think about Paul.

[entropy12]

Only place I am looking at is what the primary voters will say in 2016. Whoever the “voters” pick will get my campaign cash in the general.

[Olog-hai]

Quite so. “Democrats’ enemy” ≠ liberals’ enemy. And Rand’s rhetoric has been heavily liberal, even fiscally.

[Olog-hai]

You’re assuming Democrats think. Or that they mean what they say, at the very least.

Did you hear about the two ‘DREAM’sters who waylaid King and Paul at lunch the other day? Both were tucking into sandwiches and these uninvited guests barge in like citizens, Americans.
King handled them handily ..... while Junior Paul ran away lak a leettle guuurl!
Heh, it was like he was with a cute staffer and Missus Paul walked in unexpectedly. Quick, like a bunny he was, to be sure, aaarrrggghhh, yar.

[GeronL]

Most voters will have no say in who is the nominee, it will be over before many vote.

If the nominee is not conservative, I won’t be bothered looking elsewhere.

[GeronL]

lol

and they call him the streak.... *zoom*

[entropy12]

You’re assuming Democrats think.

Now that was genuinely funny. It made me lol. I have 2 democrat friends (republican friends are hard to come by near Seattle) who swallow the leftist propaganda as the golden truth.

[entropy12]

I ain’t helping Hillary no matter who the voters pick. I am stupid.

[Olog-hai]

Never mind the author being a former intern for Anthony Weiner.

[entropy12]

Did yo hear that video was discredited as being out of context? To be fair to Paul, he was off to a pre-arranged meeting or something.

[2ndDivisionVet]

So you’ll be a “Romney, Christie, Bush or Pawlenty man” if the dice roll that way?

[GeronL]

Weiner Nuzzi...

[entropy12]

She can’t be a democrat! She is actually attractive!

[GeronL]

I would never vote Democrat, but if the GOPE nominates another (Dole, McCain, Romney) fool, they’ll deserve to lose.

[GeronL]

Only since the operation, since he quit being Oliver.

Yes, if the VOTERS in primaries pick my barber, I will be for the barber. Anyone but Hillary or Hillary clone in 2016.
