This is exactly why we lose elections.
You're right.
Our candidates try to be all things to everyone and obfuscate in such a manner that they think they can find a sweet spot where the most people will vote for them.
Hence Rand Paul's stating he is against Amnesty, and then presenting a plan to "Normalize" (provide amnesty) for 2 million Illegal Aliens every year.
Hence Rand Paul's inability to succinctly and explicitly answer a journalist when that journalist asks him if he is for or against abortions in terms of Rape or Incest.
We will start winning elections again when we dump the Karl Rove/Mitt Romney/GOP-e model of moderating our stands on principles.

That’s not what I meant. What I meant is the we lose elections because we have too may people searching for any thing they can find that wil disqualify a good candidate. There is no perfect person and there was nothing wrong with Rand Paul’s answers.
