THAT I am afraid, is the BAD news.
We are going to get some MOST EXCELLENT new blood in the House and Senate, but not NEAR enough.
Rand Paul, is my pick for MOST "shocking".
I put it like this. Right now, if we did a Poll on FR. MORE than half would say they do not like him and have issues with X Y or Z or just call him a NUT outright without even any facts.
I predict 365 days from now, that same poll of those same people, here on FR, will be hailing him as a HERO with 90% approval.
Dr NO in the Senate. And he has a base from which he can be a Steve King or Michelle Bachmann. Watch and see.
And not in the house, but in the "YES I AM GOING TO FILIBUSTER THIS BILL TOO" US Senate.
I can hardly wait !!
He had been planning to run for governor rather than senator but Specter ticked him off again so he switched plans. Specter's bolt to the Dems was in response to Toomey's announcement to run against him.
