What good is he?

He's just going to line his pockets like his Daddy.

Okay, so is this Rand Paul sizing up his competition and deciding to throw a stink bomb into the works?

Jealous. It’s fine for him to pull his little filibuster about something no one remembers, but this is a BIG moment for the U.S.A. and Rand Paul was no where to be seen. We won’t forget.

He was there, but his support seemed tepid at best, and his own words confirms this now.

It makes it look like it was a big PR stunt for Rand Paul to be there, on his part.

So, he stays for Cruz’s filibuster, and then votes for cloture? If I were his constituent I’d be mighty pissed off.

Don’t forget that Cruz voted for this too. 100 aye votes...

The big vote comes Saturday as I understand it.

We’ll see how it breaks out then.

I don’t care for his comment about ‘unfair’ at all. Good grief!

Paul just fell down several pegs in my opinion. So be it. I won’t forget.

Why? Was he using a straw with spit peas?
Paul is voting to fund obamacare, right?.

No, No. I’m not talking about today’s vote to proceed. I’m talking about cloture to end debate on Fri or Sat. I guess I’m reading this to mean Paul plans to vote FOR cloture (hence, as Cruz reiterated, a vote FOR OdingoCare).

It’s like this, GOP.

For any job or question or anything else in the future, if your name isn’t Ted Cruz, you need not apply.

Disappointing but no surprise at all. Rand is trying to position himself for the ‘16 run. Unfortunately, , he’s had a setback from THE potential challenger, Senator Ted Cruz.

No the vote was to bring the house bill to the floor for debate.
I am glad the senate is going to hash it out......will identify those who support the continued destruction of America.
fund the government not obamacare
