Excellent interview. Rand stays objective about the FBI issue while lobbing thought bomb after thought bomb about the danger of the overreaching surveillance state.

I get the approach, but when asked multiple times about the investigation being tainted, Rand just kept going back to the larger point of FBI oversight, and it made him appear weak.

I'd like him to be more direct in some of his answers to direct questions like this. One can still be non-committal while at the same time giving a specific answer to a question.

This vagueness and rhetorical wordplay, even filibustering, is a hindrance to the Rand Brand. Sometimes he's just too smart for his own good. When you work to avoid being pinned down, no one knows where you stand.

Or maybe that's the point. ugh.
