“The Democrats ran moderates in ’60 and ’64 and ’68”

That is so much cr@p.

Maybe JFK was a “moderate” Maybe.

But LBJ and Humphrey were both HUGE Nanny State lefties.

[PGR88]

What? it won’t be Chris Christie?

But its his turn!

/s

[Mr. K]

No, it will be Palin/Paul

(If I have anything to say about it)

for 16 years of conservative bliss

[Quickgun]

Well... we could do worse than Rand...we already have done worse..Much worse...

[InterceptPoint]

We could do worse. An actual candidate who is eligible according to the Constitution. What a concept.

(With apologies to Ted Cruz who I admire greatly - could be a great president if we are willing to look the other way on the Constitutional requirements for the Presidency).

[Third Person]

Rand to the rescue?

[Georgia Girl 2]

OK with me.

[GrandJediMasterYoda]

"The hard-right is going to take over the Republican Party in 2016 ..

Which would be like the hard-right taking over the Democrat party, same thing, which means no way in hell - which is why we need a new party.

[SMARTY]

How does Matthews know this? Did he get a tingle up his leg or something?

RE: Well... we could do worse than Rand...we already have done worse..Much worse...

I don’t know.... replace the name “Rand Paul” with “Marco Rubio” and we get a huge number of FReepers shouting “Traitor” !!

But I don’t read that word being posted in this thread at all.

Doesn’t anybody realize that Rand Paul is sympathetic to some form of amnesty as well?

How does he explain Reagan? He wasn’t moderate.

[Zathras]

DNC Decoder:
“We are in serious trouble...all troops target Rand Paul”

[meangene]

Chris who?

:)

[jimfree]

That would be just fine with me.

[Responsibility2nd]

There’s no need to look the other way.

Any presidential eligibility questions we may have had are now gone. The issue has been settled. Constitutionally settled.

Hundreds of lower courts have decided Obama is a Natural Born Citizen. The SCOTUS validated that by not reviewing it.

What else is there to say? Except...

Cruz/Whoever - 2016.

[GBA]

With Cruz as Senate Majority Leader, putting the Senate on "Cruz Control", plus a Constitution loving and following President, we could be in a very good place once more!

We would finally be heading in the right direction again, toward the health and prosperity that are our birthrights when we honor our founding documents and follow our Judeo-Christian philosophy and heritage.

Chris Matthews: Rand Paul Will Be Republican Presidential Nominee in 2016

Old Sarge: Chrissy Tingles can paint herself magenta and hurl her arse from the center span of the Verrazano Narrows before I ever listen to what she has to say!

[Sooth2222]

Since Chris Matthews is never right about anything, I doubt it.

Based on their recent record, the Republicans might nominate Hillary Clinton.

Or they might as well.

[pgkdan]

For once I agree with Chrissy and hope he’s right.
