You don't cheer on someone's impending death without serious reprocussions.

It said nothing about him cheering it on at all.

Could Bunning be feeling the heat of a possible Rand Run against him already?

Yea I agree.

But if the senate race would cost Bunning 10 mil, then how much would it cost Paul? 15 mil? 20 mil?

I'll donate the max if I can, but do you really think Paul Jr. could raise that much with the states GOP leadership not supporting him?

Don't believe this article. It is designed to make Bunning look bad. Never trust this newspaper.

Thanks for the tip. I got that feeling from the article as well.

Particularly I didn't understand this paragraph...


The implication, they said, was that Bunning would allow Kentucky Gov. Steve Beshear, a Democrat, to appoint his replacement — a move that could give Democrats the 60 votes they need to block Republican filibusters in the Senate.

If Bunning didn't run again, why would the governor appoint his replacement?
