Rand Paul just took a position against social conservatism.

I will remind you that Paul has been quite vocal about his pro-life beliefs. And you evidently missed my point which was that Cruz is shying away from social issues.

FReepers are assuming he will advocate socially conservative policies -- but they don't know that. He may well in the end, but it's foolish to criticize Rand all the while praising Cruz without knowing Cruz's position.

People here tend to jump on one candidate after the other making judgements with incomplete information.

You don’t seem to understand, Paul just formally came out against social conservatism, he clearly has started his argument that the GOP move left.

He is firm here, we are to yield.
“”I think that the Republican Party, in order to get bigger, will have to agree to disagree on social issues. The Republican Party is not going to give up on having quite a few people who do believe in traditional marriage. But the Republican Party also has to find a place for young people and others who don’t want to be festooned by those issues.””

Are you seriously stating that everyone here is the same? Except for you, of course.
