I'm not even that much of a fan of Rand Paul - as another poster noted, he has cozied up to some questionable types, and he has yet to prove he is truly that different from his old man in areas such as foreign policy.

At this point I am willing to give him a chance. He isn't a career politician like his dad (so far) owns his own business and seems to be supportive of the Tea Party movement. He is a newbie and having been under the MSM glare, has made some mistakes. Like Sarah Palin, McDonnell etc.

But the evidence presented here to back up the claims that he is coddling establishment RINOs is asinine. As is the claim that fiscal conservatism runs against the Constitution. The author of this screed appears incapable of basic logic, and is just running around saying "Because I SAID so!"

Totally agree. You made specific points, using his own language and his condescending arrogance won't allow him to admit his logic is flawed. Not only your posts but several others.

I am not as well spoken as you but you make a lot of sense to me!

I am too. He did distance himself somewhat from his dad during the campaign on key issues such as foreign and national security policy - but the proof is what he does in office. So far, he hasn't done anything to give himself a black mark - so far, so good.

Thanks for the kind words, but you did just fine yourself in that regard.
