Rand Paul considering running for President in 2016 is a gift that will keep on giving to Democrats.

Republicans will be divided as long as the looney right has an attractive leader. The teaparty will fight to the death in the primaries and then hate that the GOP has chosen a traditional republican be it Jeb Bush or Chris Christie. They will not turn out to vote.

Let us all take a moment to wish Rand good health and much publicity in the next 4 years. I'm going to send him VIBES.




Rand Paul will be a major player in 2016

1. We Elected Reagan And Bush Twice - We Could Be Crazy Enough To Elect This Idiot. Remember -

the GOP is working on changing the electoral votes and they are in power in key states.

The GOP successfully gerrymandered House districts and kept the majority there. And who knows what else they are up to?

2. Just keep this in mind...

While I know the cross-section of voters across the US is different from those in Kentucky, I thought he'd never be elected here.

I remember driving from Lexington to Georgetown a year before the election and seeing a lone sign for Rand Paul on a farm fence. I laughed each time I saw it...thinking, no way that bastard can win. I was wrong.

There were a lot of reasons he won here, one of the biggest, the horrid campaign by Jack Conway's team, but we would do well not to underestimate Paul. He is cunning and crazy, a scary combination.

I have some restored faith in the US voter...now that Obama has been reelected but someone like Paul, even crazy a loon, scares me.

3. It could be the Goodhair/Badhair ticket.

4. I'd love to see him try to campaign on the promise to overturn

the 1964 Civil Rights Act.
