It isn't working very well for me. Anyone else having it go in and out?

And as to substance, if I were the GOP leadership I'd try to use this to recapture the exuberance of the victory and play up Rand's star status. Being in the 'top 10 most influential GOP leaders' by Washington Post within a week of winning your primary is huge, no matter if you are controversial to msnbc and the DNC, and polls show Rand up 25 points over Conway. Put back together the winning message.

That is the way to win.

Besides, McConnell et al want to influence Rand, and they will more likely get respect for their campaign suggestions if they show they have his back.

LOL at their Twitter thing, which apparently they're not monitoring. As best I can tell; anyone who tweets something with #kyelect gets on it.

They sure do seem threatened by those Rand Paul yard signs!! Don't the ones up now get to stay up for the general, though?

-- seriously, is this working for anyone? I'm seeing tweats that McConnell formally endorsed Rand etc but nothing is happening on my screen.

And aren't the tweets WRONG??? it looks like they are trying to get people to take down Rand's signs... I mean we KNOW who has signs up and most tweats are 'election over post name and location of signs' as if it was ok to take them down, instead of illegal. My understanding, at least, is that those signs up now can stay up through the general election.

If I had a twitter acct I'd post back.

maybe the voters held back and did not tell the people with clipboards on both sides what
they would do. we have ANGRY & TIGHT LIPPED voters getting more frustrated with d.c!

It's over. A very short speech. A guy in full patriot garb chanted Rand Paul while a bunch of GOP establishment folks shifted in their feet nervously. If any of you read Bill Simmons, you'll know what I mean when this ranks up there on the Unintentional Comedy Scale.

I was there, but so many people showed up that I couldn't get in the building!

I recall when Rand first filed and made a speech at the building, everyone fit in and they said it was the largest crowd they'd ever had.

This time, the crowd was even bigger, packing the lawn and area behind the building. TONS of Rand fans, mingled with the old guard. The atmosphere was a bit tense still, but a lot of people took Rand Paul signs and I made friends with some non-Rand people. I sensed a lot of new people there (tea partiers/9-12) who didn't quite know what the tension was about. :P There were a bunch of Democrat trackers and liberal attack bloggers there trying to hassle Rand and David.

I was really hoping for a tube myself since I couldn't hear the speeches. They really should have had it outdoors or even like a rally on the capitol steps - but perhaps they weren't anticipating so much enthusiasm for the event!

but guess what the AP story covered?
the 10 democrats who said Rand was for Jim Crowe laws.

not the overflowing attendance for Rand.
