As you can see in above poll, 49% of repubs could vote for Rand Paul.
However I like Scott Walker's net (53-17) = 36 positive.

AUSTIN, Texas — Sen. Rand Paul (R-KY) slammed former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush as a “Democrat-light” who’s “almost like Hillary Clinton but not quite,” in an exclusive interview with Breitbart News at the South By Southwest conference.
Paul also laid out his vision for his pathway to victory, should he jump in with a race for the White House as many expect him to—and explained how he plans to build a unique coalition of voters to win the GOP nomination and then the general election.
Paul told Breitbart News:
“We believe that the message of ‘leave me alone’ that forms sort of the ‘leave me alone coalition’ forms this group of people that we think supports the things I’m trying to do is a big enough and broad enough coalition to win in a Republican primary but is also a big enough and broad enough to bring independents and others afterwards. There are two different tactics you could try to do if you want to bring in independents: You could be Democrat-light and run the Jeb Bush campaign that’s uncomfortable with the grassroots of your party and you could run this campaign that’s like ‘I’m almost like Hillary Clinton but not quite’ and then you can get the independents or I think you could run a truly principled campaign as a Constitutional conservative but also still show how the message that big government messes everything up from business to taxes to regulation also can be applied to criminal justice. That big government messes up criminal justice and doesn’t treat people fairly because big government is incompetent. Big government is incapable of feting out justice sometimes because it is too large. So I think there is a possibility, a great possibility, a truly principled Constitutional limited government conservative message, could

Actually, I’m not kidding when I suggest that Jeb and Hillary run as a team. Bush/Clinton. Their only problem would be deciding who heads the ticket.
But they are pretty close on the issues.
Rand Paul is a liberaltarian trying to pose as a conservative. He needs to disappear into obscurity like his daddy.
How odd. I agree with Rand.
Still ain’t gonna vote for him, though.
Bush / Clinton 2016!
Clinton / Bush 2020!
Uniparty Forever!
Good for Rand. Hit em hard and hit em low. LOL!
He could say Bush is like Hillary, except he lacks the balls. Some would agree.
Forget it.
Paul is soft on illegals, foreign policy, and is pandering to the race baiters.
As you can see in above poll, 49% of repubs could vote for Rand Paul.
However I like Scott Walker's net (53-17) = 36 positive.
Jeb believes whatever Columba tells him to believe.
Ron Small and John McStain, two people who make you cringe when they actually get one right.
Rubio
Huckabee
Bush
Paul
Perry
GACK!
Good for Rand. He made some good points. I hope he keeps making good points.
Jeb is Hillary without the penis.
It comes down to whoever wears the bigger jockstrap, or the most frilly panties.
I am not so sure about Hillary.
You're not supposed to hit girls though. And that includes debutante Jebbie.
Walker +36
Rubio +30
Carson +23
Huckabee +12
Jindal +11
The rest are in single digits.
Honestly, that’s not very encouraging to me.
While I like Walker standing up to the unions very much, I remain unconvinced he’s a man I can support for the presidency.
Doing some quick research last night, I came across some information that led me to believe there is a good chance he was another Amnesty not an Amnesty man.
If that’s true, he’s not a man I can endorse.
If people can’t grasp the sovereignty issue, they simply aren’t qualified.
I do want to quantify this, in that I am not exactly sure what his stance was. My verdict is still out and I don’t want to mislead anyone on this subject.
I second that sound of disgust.
