Its actually not that bad, its beginning to die down. Yesterday Rand was on the front page of Google News for the BP comments.

You know what they say, there's no such thing as bad press. The world knows who Rand Paul is now. I think that all the negative press from the left will only make his candidacy stronger in the long run.

They don't know it yet, but this will ultimately blow up in their faces. Good or bad, but they are giving our boy all the press in the world. This could bode well for Ron also because we all know if they want to start asking him the same questions Big Daddy will put their asses in their place! Hell with em, let em keep digging, because this imo will help us in the end..

Hahahah... I totally called this days ago and knew this would happen.

Blowback's a bitch!

Isn't it interesting how, in the press, pundits have been meticulously explaining WHY they think he's wrong? Big questions have been asked and people aren't just writing him off, they're answering the questions.

Ron Paul made people ask why our soldiers are in the Middle East.

Debra Medina made people ask whether it was okay to question the official story.

Just like Ron Paul made people consider whether the PATRIOT Act was patriotic Rand Paul has made people ask whether the Civil Rights Act promoted civil rights.

It's fun to get your guy elected, but the widespread discussion that's happening is much more important in the long term. It's silly that every time this happens, there are those among us who consider it a defeat.

[Matt Collins]

As usual, Rand is coming out ahead.

Think of the amount of additional traffic to Rand's campaign website! MANY more people will be finding out about him. This can only be a good thing. We want people to know Rand's stances and rationale.

[ItsTime]

Rand Paul is the GOPs Obama. Rand Paul 2018!
