What are you talking about? Rand Paul hates the left and is among the most conservative senators.
Did you even glance at the article?
"Paul, who has tried to broaden the GOP’s appeal to African-Americans, also joined Sen. Claire McCaskill (D-Mo.) and other leading Democrats"
Paul is also pro-amnesty, and has called for conservatives to "soften" on social issues. So don't try to tell me he is conservative.
