Agorism

I've had a couple people on non-Paul related forums note this to me.
Listen to Palin, Huckabee, Reagan or Bush43 then listen to Obama-Pelosi.
Its not a big mistake but I noticed and many probably did too.
Rand Paul said “his campaign was lucky to have raised 1.7 million dollars and had hundreds of volunteers”. Presbyterians don’t get lucky. Most Baptists don’t gamble because relying on “luck” is not relying on God. Some pols say “fortunate” and others “blessed”. Blessed will get people saying you are talking about faith which in Kentucky will not hurt you one bit. Saying fortunate gets you always between Lucky and Blessed.
When Obama says “people who are not lucky enough to be born into a wealthy family” people in the south cringe as it may tell them about his worldview. When Palin says “I was blessed to be born to my parents” that tells us about her worldview.
So Rand Paul gave a great speech but he needs to ditch that lucky word. Just replay that tape and imagine him saying “My campaign was fortunate” or “even my campaign was blessed”.
