Re: “I stand with Rand.”

That will give you a better view of Conservatives walking away from the GOP.

Last week he told a group of Blacks he favored eliminating or reducing prison terms for many drug offenders - Bye-Bye, Cultural Conservatives.

He punts on gay marriage, never explicitly saying he is against it - Bye-Bye, Evangelicals.

His immigration plan says nothing about E-Verify or employer sanctions, which, of course, would cause illegals to self-deport by the millions - Bye-Bye, Immigration Hawks.

He is a Foreign Policy Dove and has equivocal positions on Israel - Bye-Bye, Defense Hawks and Neo-Cons.

He seems to be completely unaware that 80% of new immigrant citizens vote for the Democrat Party - Bye-Bye, America.

He’s not a Republican, he’s from that deep tradition of pre-Civil War Democrats.

Actually, Rand Paul has stated specifically that he doesn't want anything to do with strengthening or using E-Verify.

This is how you KNOW he is a wolf in sheep's clothing where Illegal Immigration is concerned.
