“There is no reason to believe Rand Paul is a racist. There is now reason to believe that he is frivolous,” Will said on “This Week.”

“He doesn’t understand that his job is to win a Senate seat, not conduct a seminar on libertarian philosophy,” Will told “This Week” host Jake Tapper.

He wasn't the one that brought it up in the first place.

No, but he took the bait. Will is right, run on positions that have relevance to your coming term of office. He should never, in any interview, have responded as he did about the CRA. It doesn't matter what constitutional issues exist with the CRA.

Libertarians bash him for abandoning them.

The mainstream media slams him for being too libertarian.

I always thought he was the perfect mix of libertarianism and electability. Oh well.
