"But Trump is useless on civil liberties and criminal justice reform, statist on economics and implied that if he must go to war, he will commit war crimes. (Not for the first time.)"

Rand, how about you stop bulling Trump and calling him childish. Look in the mirror. I think Rand took it very personally because Trump made fun of his height.

I think Trump hurt his feelings in the debate when Trump looked at him and said “there is plenty there to criticize”. Little Rand is sensitive.

Rand Paul suspended his campaign 1 week ago.

All the tweets in the last week were thanking his supporters and about Rand getting back family time.

Commiserations, thanks,etc. was all rand was tweeting. It is interesting to see what candidates get back to once they’ve finished the process of ending their campaign and back to being a member of Congress or a former governor.

Rand is a decent Senator. I trust he will work with the next Republican President to bring this country back toward sanity.

I like the way you stated his case better than the way I did. So, I retract my quizzical “What has happened to you, RP”.

Sounds like an endorsement of Cruz to me. Don’t be surprised if he makes a statement officially endorsing Cruz prior to SC when 3-4 others drop out.

Rand’s supporters according to what I heard are flocking to Trump, because they are anti establishment Libertarians and Trump is a nationalist who wants to run America more like a business and move power away from DC.

Trump like the Paul’s was not in favor of the war in Iraq.
Trump doesn’t want us to be the world’s policeman. He wants Allies who don’t pay for their defense to do so, especially the Saudis who demand rent for us defending them.

Sorry if Paul’s feelings got hurt, he should have worn Marco’s high lift shoes.

Rand is a smart guy who should never have attacked Trump who attacks back. When Cruz finishes 5th in NH Trump will start getting some of Cruz’s support too.

The Rand supporters I know are avoiding the GOP caucus like the plague.

We all have bad days but we all hope to avoid having a CN day.

(I wish Jerry would trade him and start rebuilding the team a different way. Anybody want him?)

While admitting that he's a superb athlete, there's always been something I didn't like about him. Having made race-based statements recently and then trying to look all macho instead of putting his hand over his heart during the Anthem (which, despite so many concerns, Lady Gaga did a great job with) had me rooting against him almost as much as I was rooting for Manning - a real class act.

Just being an occasional NFL TV viewer, yes. I thought CN had grown up but he's nowhere close to that. You can have him for your preferred team(s).

Yes, let him win multiple championships for other teams. I'm not a fan of this continually egotistical embarrassment to Carolina.

He bribes his kid fans with free footballs. Whoopee.
