Rand may be pretty much dead to me at this point. His affirmation of Cochran accusing a Tea Partier of being a member of the KKK is sickening
Politics is ugly. Always has been, always will be. Won't ever change. Rand's an outsider trying to win the support of key insiders he will need for his presidential run. He's gathering favors and good will from the "establishment". Everything Rand Paul is doing is with his run for the White House in mind, my guess is he doesn't much care for Alexander, McConnell, Cochran or most of the rest of them.
I agree. He has been turning on the spit. Pretty well roasted RINO now.
