You know, this sentiment is very prevalent in the Rand Paul supporter thought-sphere.
What is the implication? "Rand can't speak the truth or he'll never get through the primary."
Ok, and then what? It gets EASIER after that? Is that logical?
"Yeah, sure. Once Rand has x amount of power he'll be able to do what he wants." Is that what everyone's thinking? That somehow once you've climbed deep enough into the snake pit you're given free reign?
There is no "until" people. You want to play the game you can't speak the truth EVER. Ever, ever, ever, ever. There is no magic point where Rand gets to stop doing it like this. That's why I get so frustrated with this. It's like everyone who supports him "no matter what" is looking forward to some future PSYCHE! moment. It doesn't work like that, folks.
