This. In spades...
Rand in 2016.
When Paul ran in the primary he was villified as a radical, as not conservative but a libertarian. I listened to him. He is not libertarian. He is Conservative. He is what Republican should be and could be. He is very nearly me in his conservative views. We don't perhaps see 100% eye to eye but we are a lot closer than anything that has been around in a while. I hope I have the chance to support him for president.
Was the filibuster a stunt? Perhaps, I don't know but I wish it was still going on. If we would filibuster every stupid thing that happens in the Senate perhaps we would get more respect. Having dinner with the president underscores to me what is wrong with the Republican old timers. I am glad that Mitch McConnell had enough sense to choose the right side and stood with Rand Paul.
I Stand with Rand!
