This is not good. He will siphon off enough votes to help the Dems win, just as the Green Party ultimately helped Bush win in 2000.

This is great! The only people who would vote for RP are the extreme far left anti-Americans who will only vote for the most anti-American running. If cut and run does not run third party, it will force them to vote democrat.

Paul's vocal support if from the virulently anti-war right/left, along with those who view the American experience of the 20th century a complete failure. Those are the issues he'll be running on. Particularly if Hillary is the candidate, he's draw from both sides of the political spectrum. And not in large numbers. Even with leftist crossovers and the many uninvolved in politics his supporters brag about, he's still only attracting 5% or less of one political party, maybe 2/3 are Republicans. And that 2/3 won't all go 3rd party. No reason the general election has to turn on that.
