Rand Paul will drop out of the race for president, three sources close to the campaign told POLITICO.
Paul, a freshman Kentucky senator and the son of former Texas Rep. Ron Paul, has a large libertarian following but failed to gain traction in the presidential race. He now faces a race for reelection to the Senate.

Ping.
Rand Paul has always stayed true to his values. He’s doing the responsible thing here given the state of his campaign.
Rand was down to 2% in NH poll.
what is Santorum doing today?
Politico is pro Cruz! They are reporting Lies! Lies, I tell you! They are stealing the election for Cruz by putting out these lies! /s
In a word, good. I’d have liked him to have quit before Iowa. Time his butt back to Kentucky and make sure the 2nd tier rat gets a thrashing.
I don’t know why Santorum ran again, let alone why he’s still in. He doesn’t have Rand’s (Senate reelection) or Huck’s (back to dancing for coins) compelling reasons (besides having no support) to quit though.

rs may have cxl these events. says he is assessing campaign. assess hard.
Rand Paul doesn’t want to be compared with his old man, Ron Paul, who did very well in NH when he ran for Prez back when. Too embarrassing, as Rand is bombing out in NH. So he is pulling out before the vote is taken in NH. Rand must be a great disappointment to his father, Ron Paul.
Santorum. he is out.
surprise.
per CNN
And yet Jeb stays in.
They ran with integrity. It just wasn't nearly enough in a crowded field.
Best wishes to them both.
Bizarre, lol.
