Rand Paul's Very Bad Week



By Sniffles

"When does my honeymoon period start?" Rand Paul asked earlier today, in an obviously canned bit for "Good Morning, America."

We cats have news for this whiny teabagger. Randy, your honeymoon lasted about 20 minutes — and it ended at about the time that the news media realized that your victory party was held at a decidedly non-democratic, private country club.

From then on, Rand Paul's week just got worse and worse. Consider, for example, the following:
  • Sticking his foot in his mouth has cost him a huge opportunity to build momentum on a landslide win.
  • For the last few days, he's been playing defense, not offense.
  • Frantic backtracking tends to eat away your day. Has he had any time to raise money lately?
  • He's given an enormous boost to Jack Conway's national visibility and support. (Ka-ching!)
  • Like right-wing nut Bob McDonnell in Virginia, Rand Paul has needlessly raised a thorny issue that will — pardon the expression — dog him forever.
P.S. This is our 900th post. Goodness gracious, how time flies when we're having fun. We cats PURR.
