This is a dicey area. Ron Paul’s son could bring baggage.

Well...at least he’s not his father.

Anybody with the last name of “Paul” can do well in U.S. politics. Conservatives should take advantage of this by finding truly conservative candidates, at every political level, with the last name of “Paul” and then encouraging them to officially run for political office. It’s just a thought.

"Really showing to be a strong candidate! His opponent for the GOP primary used to be a democrat."

So was Ronald Reagan. I'm supporting Trey Grayson.

Really showing to be a strong candidate! His opponent for the GOP primary used to be a democrat.

Personally, I think Rand Paul would be great, but your point here is, well, pointless.

Jesse Helms, Strom Thurmond, and Ronald Reagan all used to be Democrats. I doubt anybody would suggest that they were trojan horse liberals, like some of the left-side-of-the-bell-curve types here on FR have been suggesting about all former Democrats lately.

The 9/11 truth, Alex Jones, Lew Rockwell conspiratists are a dedicated little group helping their boy Rand Paul, but he’s a joke of a candidate. He flip flops on the issues, engages in typical Washington doublespeak and backpeddling when push comes to shove. The outrageous disgusting lies being spread by the Rand Paul campaign and its supporters is absolutely shameless - one of the most dishonest campaigns in history.
