Funny how your vapid post doesn't name one. But then again trying so hard to give credibibity to something that has zero to do with policy doesn't surprise me. Why talk about policy when the person you backed has failure written all over his. Business as usual.

Amazing how people loose all sensibilities when it comes to their side. Maybe they never had any in the first place. Probably why they are kept people and need government to raise them from cradle to grave.
Don Frye has it right, there aren't many men left in America.

wow, yeah you are right, rand paul is dead in the water, NOT. remember bush43s children and the issue of their underage drinking that the left tried to make a big deal of? didnt work then, wont work now. just because a child is taught not to drink until they are 21, doesnt mean they are going to always follow the advice of the parents. in fact i would venture to say that ALL of us disobeyed our parents when we were growing up, does that mean ALL our parents were bad? no it doesnt, it just means that we chose a different path than the one they envisioned for us. its no bog deal, and it will never be a big deal.

Oh, well, if you insist on a list of reasons Rand Paul will crash and burn...

1. Filibusters against drone attacks on US soil then turns around and says it's okay if we get convenience store robbers this way.

2. Co-sponsored a 'personhood' amendment which would give a fetus equal status with the woman who carries it.

3. Isn't 100% sure that Civil Rights are needed

4. Tends to say one thing publically, and another thing in private (see Romney, Mitt for how that turns out)

5. Supporting people like Cuchinelli in Virginia...instead of the Libertarian in the race.

I could go on...

"Brown told the Lexington Herald-Leader (Rand Paul's son cited for alcohol possession by a minor at Keeneland | Politics and Government | Kentucky.com ) that William Paul can pay a $25 fine and court costs in advance or appear in court Nov. 15 to answer the citation. Paul is a full-time student at the University of Kentucky,
William Paul also faced alcohol-related charges in North Carolina this year, but they were dismissed in a deferred prosecution program."
The real test will be whether his punishment is the same as our children would face. If so, good for Paul. If not, shame on all of them.
