No Rand, you can’t work with the WH. Wake up.

Methinks Rand Paul is a flake.

Rand Paul is besmirching his clothing, talking of co-operating with an utterly uncompromising president and intalking to Ripon. No serious non leftist candidate has any useful truck with Ripon.

“If we’re looking forward to 2016, and some of us are,” he said to laughs, “we need to show we can do something when we’re in charge and something that works.”

They (appeasers, GOP elitists, most elected Congressmen and Senators) just do not get it. The Republican majority that was just swept into office on a voter tsunami of disgust for Obama's policies, intransigence and actual record is totally lost on them. Here, I'm giving them the benefit of doubt that they don't get it. It's either that or the alternative that they DO get it and don't care.

Screw non-partisanship, screw working with Obama, SCREW working with Democrats on anything! I very reluctantly voted R this past November because I want them to undo EVERYTHING Obama has done. I want them to be the part of NO, HELL NO as far as anything Obama wants or Democrats want, period. THIS is what 'works' for me.

“If the president wants to work with me,

Rand, you have a R after your name; even people with Ds after theirs can’t get El-Presidente to listen to them.

As much as I want to, I don't trust this guy. The next 20 years will be dominated by Radical Islamism spreading like a wild fire around the globe. Any pacivity, any reluctance, any desire for isolationism will only result in a stronger more determined and capable Islamist foe.

I fear Paul would give them that opportunity to grow. At best he would be a reluctant commander in chief. Our next POTUS has to be ready to fight a very aggressive and determined WAR!

Yep, Rand is willing to make any sort of deal that he can right now, no matter how bad, so he can campaign as a ‘statesman’ (in contrast to Cruz).

Son Of Paul is trying to keep his name out there.

That’s all there is to this.

Not that it matters whether you support Cruz, Walker, or Son Of Paul: the Uniparty has already annointed the Dauphin Bush as the GOP nominee.

This is why Paul is not a contender. With his approach (and the same approach of RINOS) is liberalism by means of a thousand/million paper cuts. You can ‘work with’ liberals all you want, but all it gets you is MORE liberalism! Buncha freakin’ jerks.

Paul is talking too much. He’s only making more enemies.

Does this mean Paul is going to establish a dialogue with the person in charge at the White House (Valerie Jarrett)?

I understand the frustration of conservative republicans in trying to cooperate with WH. My guess is Paul is laying the foundation for the general election, where majority of voters are low information voters. If those voters see a complete stand-off, lot of incumbents will be voted out of office. People want “something done”. Which is utterly stupid, because anything the government does will result in bigger government & less freedom (more taxes).

Don’t worry too much about Rand Paul. He ain’t winning GOP nomination. It will be either Jeb or Walker.
