Rand Paul Takes Another Ride On The Loony Train
Once again, Rand Paul finds himself on the wrong side of sanity and proves why
he's the Democrat's favorite "conservative," but we suspect his lunatic rants
aren't going to buy him any liberal votes should he run for President.
(The Hill) Sen. Rand Paul (R-Ky.) again finds himself at odds with many in the GOP on foreign policy, after he came out in support of the Obama administration’s move to normalize relations with Cuba.
"It’s not surprising," one Republican strategist told The Hill. "Once again he has found a way to be even more liberal than Obama on foreign policy. That’s hard to do because there’s only about a dime’s room of space between the two of them, but he always find a way to get into it."
By fueling his isolationist image, Paul has set himself up for what will likely be a bruising battle on international issues with other GOP contenders in the primaries if he chooses to run for president.
"The road to hell is paved with isolationist intentions," said Rick Wilson, a Florida Republican strategist. "He was already viewed with suspicion, not just by the donor class, but by the part of the party that believes in strong national security and promoting American values abroad, and now he’s behind throwing a lifeline to a communist dictator."
