It's also funny because he is the only* candidate in the race whose political experience is totally confined to Washington.


* eta: I double checked and Rick Santorum also hasn't held office outside of Washington, so Rand's not the only one, but close. Also, who cares about Rick Santorum?

Butt first, let's
check the feeds.

The scariest part of that scary Jindal exorcism story is that part where he casually mentions that his ex called him a sociopath and he was beginning to think he had no feelings until a demon challenged him to love.

I have a friend who supports Jindal and whenever I bring up that exorcism she says "it was just college." Like that's what happens in college. You binge drink, you date rape a few girls, and you perform an exorcism. I did college all wrong.

Here you go: 29% of Louisiana Republicans blame Obama for the Feds' response to Katrina, more than the 28% that blamed Bush.

I would hope the vitriol would be devoted to the fact that Jindal was burning Louisiana to the ground while it simultaneously sinks beneath the waves, but racism is easier I suppose.

I was just pointing out that Louisiana voters are horribly racists and dumb. I'm actually from Louisiana , New Orleans area specifically and unless you've grown up surrounded by that culture of racism it's hard to explain to people just how it permeates all of the state.

Ron Paul easily took in millions in donations, which was hilarious when you knew he had no chance of ever getting the nomination. There are people who will get behind Rand as much as they supported Ron, then be disappointed again when they realize Rand got all of their money and never had a chance. Four years later, repeat.

Yeah, but most of Ron Paul's donations were small dollar. SuperPACs are meant to generate money from big donors over the limits. I can't see Rand getting a lot of wealthy, institutional support.

Millions in small dollars though. I'm not saying Rand Paul's going to have a war chest of $50 million, but people are going to give him money.
