I only caught the end of it. :(

I also just caught the end of a Rand interview with Lou Dobbs on the Fox Business channel. Dobbs asked him about the Federal Reserve, his thoughts on the next debate, and the Ben Carson/Westpoint thing (Rand called it a tempest in a teapot). Hope someone finds a tube because I missed most of the Federal Reserve part.

Is he going to be interviewed in the second half-hour part, the one that is not broadcasted in most local markets?

I missed the beginning, but what I saw he did very well. Called Clinton a neoconservative again. Tapper let him speak and Rand did well.

Loving this strategy of comparing Rubio's foreign policy to Hillary's.

Rand Paul: Clinton, Rubio both 'neoconservatives' (http://www.cnn.com/2015/11/08/politics/rand-paul-neoconservative-hillary-clinton-marco-rubio/index.html)


Rand Paul says Hillary Clinton is a "neoconservative" -- just like Marco Rubio.

The Kentucky senator and GOP presidential candidate lumped Clinton, the Democratic 2016 front-runner, and Rubio, a surging Republican candidate, together on foreign policy -- criticizing them for being too willing to intervene in Middle Eastern conflicts in an interview with CNN's Jake Tapper Sunday on "State of the Union."

Asked about Clinton, Paul said: "I see her as a neoconservative."

"I see her and Rubio as being the same person," he said. "They both wanted a no-fly zone. They both have supported activity in Libya -- the war in Libya that toppled Gadhafi, an intervention that made us less safe.

"They both have supported pouring arms into the Syrian civil war, a mistake that I think allowed ISIS to grow stronger. And they both have supported the Iraq War. So I mean, what's the difference?"

He was particularly critical of both Clinton and Rubio over Libya, saying the two had advocated an intervention that led to instability and turned the country into fertile territory for ISIS.

"I fault Hillary Clinton. I fault President Obama. But I also fault the neoconservatives within my party like Rubio who have been eager for war in Libya, in Syria, in Iraq, and they want a no-fly zone in an airspace where Russia is already flying," Paul said.

"It's a foolhardy notion, and people really -- this is the kind of stepping it up to a debate over who would best be commander in chief that we really need in our country," he added.

I am not sure when he will finally halt being accused of not supporting Israel. Rand Paul is missing the optics of running for the Republican Nomination for US President. Frankly, he could do well to learn from Matt Bevin victory in his run for Kentucky Governor. I do know he needs to mention his campaign web site at least twice an interview. Also, he needs to commence saying if elected my policy shall be.... and then begin his oral thought process.

Jake Tapper defined the "final 4" in his interview with Trump (around 7 minutes in), just prior to his interview with Rand http://edition.cnn.com/videos/politics/2015/11/08/sotu-tapper-donald-trump-full-interview.cnn

Carson, Cruz, Rubio, Trump

[Jonderdonk]

At long last, Rand is being smart (in my opinion) with his attacks. Clinton and Rubio are the perfect people to attack.

Yes, that annoyed the hell out of me. The media is going with this narrative to knock out the other candidates including Rand. There is still time for Rand to be in this "Final Four" or we need there to be a "Final 6 or 7". We need Jeb to attack Carson or Cruz to attack Rubio. We need 6 or 7 total candidates with around 9 to 15% in the polls going into Iowa. That would be very ideal for us.

Rand was predicting 5 as well

Rand did masterfull job of explaining how Clinton caused so much damage with Libyian regime policy. Cap tip'
