Rubio slams 'Obama-Paul' Cuba policy

I just went to a town hall meeting where Senator Jerry Moran said that he agreed with Rand and supports lifting the Cuba embargo. He believes that it will be beneficial for wheat farmers in Kansas as well as the people of Cuba. That's big since Moran himself is more of an establishment type. He's the head of the NRSC.
 
No one said it was going to be easy, good thing Rand has no problem fighting back.

I'd just like to reiterate how amazingly smart it was for Rand to pick this battle to fight against the neocons. Most of the commentary I've seen written over the last few days is either blasting Rand for "supporting Obama" or questioning why Rand thinks he'll benefit from this fight. And that's what makes it brilliant.

I already thought this was a worthwhile battle just from the poll numbers showing majority support for changing policy on Cuba. But now, with the Chamber of Commerce and the American Farm Bureau Federation both endorsing an end to the embargo, the party establishment will swing behind Rand. He'll look like the leader of the party, simply by anticipating where the big money was going to steer things and getting ahead of it. Meanwhile, the neocons are going to lose the party and seem to have no idea of their position. It's brilliant because they have already lost, but don't know it yet.

I can't help but think of "Fist of the North Star": the neocons don't know it yet, but they are already dead :D
 
It's a winning position, even within the GOP.

Rand just needs to stick to his guns....and keep hitting Marco until he stops moving.
 
Just looking at the articles, it seems like Rand is going to have pretty much everyone harpooning him. He'll have Reason Magazine and few other places on his side, but he really is up against it. I don't have an account at the Daily Paul, but I looked at the Rand Paul section this weekend and he does not seem to be a fan favorite.

I am really wondering how he will pull the rabbit out of the hat. I think he should run. Ron Paul showed that good things happen when you put yourself out there with the message and make the effort, but I am not sure where his support will come from.

lol, you thought of that, I thought of this. Not a way to pull the rabbit out of the hat? "Who the hell do you think we are?" haha
