Grassley. Chuck Grassley, Iowa Republican, the messenger of the wobble. This guy endorsed Rand Paul. Can Paul take this guy to the corner and put him to the woodshed? Has Rand Paul said anything of this?

Senator Paul favors allowing a vote.
“while Paul said Obama “has a conflict of interest” in appointing a justice, he would “look at” an Obama nominee.
“It’s going to be very, very, very difficult to get me to vote for a presidential nomination from this president,” he said. “I will look at it if it comes down, but my threshold for voting for somebody is going to be very, very high.””

From Grassley’s campaign website:
...Grassley is also making plans to attend events for Sen. Rand Paul (R-Ky.) and retired neurosurgeon Ben Carson, Gerber said, who added that the senator offered to appear at events for every GOP candidate.
Though Grassley has endorsed in previous years - he backed former Sen. Bob Dole (R-Kan.) in 1988 and then-Texas Gov. George W. Bush in 2000 - he will not do so this year...
