OH NOES!
If this is a sign of what’s to come, we’re in for some very interesting Town Halls* this summer.
VERY INTERESTING INDEED.
*meetings, q & a forums. Not the extremist hate publication.
P.S. This doesn’t matter to Paul at all, as he will be a one-termer come '16. And KY will have two women Senators.

He is just one despicable little turd.
He’d blow a goat in Times Sq if he thought it would advance his political career.

Wait a second.
This is the guy who is absolutely positive that we need to abandon all our traditions with respect to government responsibility and replace them with cold, hard, market-driven solutions for all societal ills.
He’s certain that the major upheaval he proposes is the answer to everything but an itty-bitty question about one single program leaves him,“Not sure”?
Bonus: Not Sure is the protagonist’s name in “Idiocracy”.
It just fits.

There seem to be an awful lot of things Rand Paul is not sure of.

“…two directions…”
More paperwork or less.
Rand thinks more paperwork will make the office more efficient.

That’s my Senator for you. Nothing like more incoherence and non-sequitur responses to a straight forward question. He’s hoping that if the media tries to examine his non-response they will be distracted by all the other shit that he just made up during his answer. Paul just makes up a lot of shit, and the state and local media never call him on it.
Paul is for repeal of Obamacare, but he has said in the past that he doesn’t think it will happen any time soon. In other words, we need a Republican president and congress to repeal Obamacare, along with Social Security and Medicare,…etc. So Obamacare is still BAD, but there is not much Rand Paul can do about it now.

It couldn’t hoit.
“One was towards more competition and more marketplace and one was toward more government control.”
Paul seems to be completely unaware that the Affordable Care Act is a marketplace solution. The government control option (single payer) never got off the ground. Here is a simple quiz that every Republican should be required to take and pass before being allowed to comment on the Affordable Care Act:
-
Before the Affordable Care Act, access to healthcare was provided by
  a) the federal government
  b) state and local government
  c) private, for-profit insurance companies
  d) Santa Claus -
Under the Affordable Care Act, access to healthcare is provided by
  a) the federal government
  b) state and local government
  c) private, for-profit insurance companies
  d) the Easter Bunny

I am absolutely certain that any belief in this man is tribal. The TeaBagger tribe (which is predominately nativist, racist and old) has selected him as their standard-bearer.
As such, whatever he says is Gospel.
What if the Base actually needed to have some leadership to move them to a new direction (as Roosevelt did when, using the TVA, he provided running water and electricity to people who never had it)?
It is as symbiotic as the rhino and its little bird that sits on its back. Base supports Paul–by giving him votes. Paul supports Base–by serving up reactionary, clueless rhetoric.

Does it ever—“Not Sure” was the ungifted average guy who became the smartest person around when he woke up in a society composed entirely of idiots.

Paul is completely unaware of anything substantive.
Fixed it for you, Rhett.
