The quote about the oil spill is ridiculous. Oppose Rand Paul because he agrees that "sometimes accidents happen". Doesn't that sound scary?By the numbers: Nine. The number of times Senate candidate Rand Paul mentioned the Tea Party in his victory speech after winning the Republican primary on May 18. He mentioned Kentucky only once.
State of the race: By now, everyone has heard of Paul's revolting views on the 1964 Civil Rights Act. What you might not know are the other decidedly out-of-the-mainstream views Paul holds. When asked about the British Petroleum oil spill, Paul said "sometimes accidents happen," and he accused President Obama of sounding "really un-American" in demanding that BP be held accountable. Paul opposes the Americans with Disabilities Act and regulations that keep workers safe on the job. He also wants to eliminate the Departments of Education and Agriculture, and thinks Wall Street isn't to blame for the financial collapse. Paul also wants to build an electric fence on our border and opposes protections in the 14th Amendment to the Constitution, which guarantees citizenship to people born in the United States.
What to watch: Currently, the Republican Party is keeping Paul away from the national media in an attempt to keep his foot out of his mouth. When he begins talking again, will Paul continue to spout off about his bizarre beliefs, or will he flip-flop and start pretending to be a member of the political mainstream?]
