Is Rude-Paul A Trans-Libertarian?
I guess we'll have to see what, if any change takes place. Candidates bleed for this kind of exposure. But it's probably a good call. Hopefully he'll be attending candidate class 101. The Senate is not a House seat, which gives the media some cover for making a big deal out of all this. Yes, I realize the media and the Left are out to get him. So, I'm not ignoring that. But it was to be expected.
What surprises me is some head shaking by others at Maddow and company changing their stripes so quickly. What did people expect? They did the same thing to (cough cough) arch conservative John McCain. The Left was cheering for Paul to win the primary all along.
The danger is, this may set up something of a re-match. But will he go back after some time off? Frankly, the media that matters most for him is in Kentucky. So, I'm not sure he has to, actually. Unfortunately, round one goes to the Left. We should have been talking fin reg and Obama incompetence in the Gulf. But then, Brown, Snowe and Collins took the air out of the fin reg balloon anyway. So, what the heck. In any event, Paul finds himself in a strange place for a Senate candidate – how can I not make headlines for a few days?
What. Ever.
After a series of interviews on national TV that stirred an uproar over his views on civil rights and other issues, Rand Paul, the Republican nominee for Senate in Kentucky, has canceled a scheduled appearance on NBC’s “Meet the Press” program on Sunday.
Ms. Fischer confirmed the rarity of a cancellation to the highly watched show. Throughout its history, she said, only two guests have canceled: Louis Farrakhan and Prince Bandar of Saudi Arabia.
Rand Paul is for the Left like manna from heaven… Huffingtonpost can’t contain itself…
It is like they have won the lottery!
I’m listening to Mark Levin and I like how he is standing up for Rand Paul against Meet the Depressed.
The only people Rand Paul needed to talk to and convince to vote for him were the actual citizens of the state of Kentucky. (Local TV, rallies, parades, door to door campaigning, editorial boards.) He had no reason whatsoever to become a national figure at this time and to expose himself to the media wolves. Running around doing a victory tour on national network and cable TV, and booking onto a Sunday political show was a mistake most likely borne of hubris or best case his naiveté. Not good. Not good at all.
Let McConnell and Steele scrub the sharp edges off and he will soon be another mealy-mouthed RNC butt boy.
Prince Randi has co-opted the Tea Party movement in KY that many are now leaving due to the vile comments and attacks left on social sites by the Paul brigade, and David Adams is leading the pack! Many now in KY are praying for an Independent to show up and rally in the true conservatives here in KY that wasn’t wearing the tin foil hats!
