I am starting to like some things about Rand Paul....
Can some of you liberals tell me what is not to like?
Does he have a chance at the Republican nomination?
Is he a social conservative?
I am going to do my own looking into these questions, but can anyone here share their opinions? Funny, I seem to be liking both of the Republican 16' frontrunners Paul and Christie, even though they don't seem to like each other.

Rand Paul: There's No 'Objective Evidence' Of Racial Discrimination In Elections
Sen. Rand Paul (R-Ky.) says there's no "objective evidence" of racial discrimination in elections.
"The interesting thing about voting patterns now is in this last election African-Americans voted at a higher percentage than whites in almost every one of the states that were under the special provisions of the federal government," Paul said Wednesday according toWFPL's Phillip Bailey. "So really, I don't think there is objective evidence that we're precluding African-Americans from voting any longer."
Paul's take comes as voter ID laws are sparking debates in several states, and as state lawmakers from around the nation are joining forces to combat such laws. The latest push for more strict voting laws came after the Supreme Court struck down the core of the Voting Rights Act -- which required Southern states with a history of racial discrimination to have their laws cleared by the Department of Justice -- in June.

Sarah Palin: I'm On Team Rand Paul

Wonkbook: Rand Paul’s rough interview
This is not a very impressive interview Sen. Rand Paul conducted with Bloomberg Businessweek’s Josh Green.
For instance:
A recent article in the New Republic said your budget would eviscerate the departments of Energy, State, Commerce, EPA, FDA, Education, and many others. Would Americans support that?
My budget is similar to the Penny Plan, which cuts 1 percent a year for five or six years and balances the budget. Many Americans who have suffered during a recession have had to cut their spending 1 percent, and they didn’t like doing it, but they were able to do it to get their family’s finances back in order. I see no reason why government can’t cut 1 percent of its spending.
So that’s not actually an answer. Paul’s budget eliminates the Department of Commerce. It also eliminates the Department of Education. And the Department for Housing and Urban Development. And the Department of Energy. The State Department gets cut by more than 50 percent.
Meanwhile, it increases spending on defense by $126 billion.
