Rand Paul is one of my FAVORITES. He is more principled and less of a cynical opportunist than nearly another other politician.
His libertarian instincts means he ALWAYS he falls on the side of lower taxes, smaller government, less social-engineering, fewer wars and freedom of civil society (including religion).
I was mighty impressed with Rand on the ABC morning show today. He showed tremendous respect, integrity, instinct, intelligence, and articulation in flawlessly navigating the mine field J. Karl was so desperately laying before him.
