Rand Paul, a candidate in the Republican primary for U.S. Senate in Kentucky revealed in an interview Thursday for the Wall Street Journal's Washington Wire blog that his campaign has asked 2008 GOP vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin to campaign for him:
Washington Wire: Do you want Sarah Palin to campaign for you?But the son of Texas congressman Ron Paul did not seem too excited about two other potential Republican presidential candidates:
Paul: We’d love to have her come. We’ve made some overtures to her.
Washington Wire: What about Tim Pawlenty or Mitt Romney?Read the full Rand Paul interview here.
Paul: I don’t know much about Tim Pawlenty. Romney, there’s a mixture of beliefs there.

interesting, very interesting..meanwhile, poor ol Mitt is thinking “Hey over here, its me Mitt, remember me”
I thought I liked Rand Paul, and now I know I do!! Mitt Romney, the Ken doll, needs to find something else to do other than run for President.
Ahhhh...Sarah, don’t do it.
Rand, Son of Ron Paul?
I anticipate hearing a lot more about requests for Sarah over the others. The Sarah 2012 stickers are showing up now. Romney is an old school slickster politician, I can’t get excited over him.
Ahhh...gotta clean my glasses. Thought it was Dad who was asking.
Strike post 4.
Yeah for a second I thought it said RON Paul too, then had a double take. Rand Paul seems like a good guy. I hope she endorses him. Poor Mittens, Poor Huck, Poor Pawlenty, no one wants their endorsement, but they want Sarah’s. WOW for someone who is so darn irrelevant she sure gets a lot of requests doesn’t she. Can I be irrelevant too :-)
“Rand, Son of Ron Paul?”
Yea, a fruitcake also. Bummer. From his own campaign website: “Were Dr. Rand Paul in charge of the budget, he would first demand that it be balanced. And second, he would make defense spending a top priority.”
His priorities are backwards (and he’s a grown man). If FDR had that attitude during WW2, we would be speaking German.
Stay clear, Sarah, please.
Rand is Ron Paul’s son.
If FDR had had Paul’s honesty there never would have been a Pearl Harbor.
How can anyone use FDR as an example of anything right? Well, I guess a leftist collectivist could.

Sarah, I’ll tell you how irrelevant she is...AP put 11 fact checkers on her book.
For somebody irrelevant that sure seems like a lot of man-hours.
We would? I don't think Germany ever considered an invasion of America.

Rand Paul...honestly where do they get these names?

I’m guessing it’s a hat tip to Ayn Rand, but I could be wrong
Very interesting indeed.
Is that like a shout out?
Palin would draw huge crowds in KY. Weren’t we been told just a month or so ago that no one wanted Palin to endorse them or help them in any way? Guess the MSM got that wrong. I suspect we will see Palin endorsing and campaigning for a lot of conservatives next year, including during primaries where conservatives challenge seats held by RINO’s, and conservatives taking on Blue Dogs.
